getting ready for valentine's

so i'm making things for valentines's day now....hearts (obviously) but not tacky, just lovely. well, i think so. mum and dad got the prototype and it's already hanging off the mantelpiece so that's an endorsement! specially as my mum is queen of hearts. i could explain that, but i'm enjoying the slightly sinister mystery of that sentence! will put pics up this week xxxx

a time to smile

this is a post which didn't get published due to the dodgy home internet .
it should have come out on 18th December

Hello lovelies
I'm home for christmas with my parents for a good long while :)
I went to a funeral today, of one of the most entertaining lady I knew - Mary from number 119. she always had a story, always offered a drink, always made me smile and it's very strange to think she won't be doing annual boxing day party. R.I.P. mary, you must be having so much fun up there

Happy New Year Lovelies!!

So yes, obviously, my new year's resolution is to write more posts on this poor, neglected blog. i have fantastic plans for 2o13...will be doing two craft fairs with friends so shall be sharing stuff. promise. plus i have discovered awesome people who make blog planners so you post regularly which is exciting and potentially successful :o)
in my (very weak) defence, my laptop was out of order for basically the whole of December.....but i have a shiny new one which i can bluetooth pictures to from my phone AND an internal card reader. so the future for this.is.hann.made blogspot looks extremely bright.
and here are a couple of things from christmas makings time......

love n peace

countdown to my first craft fair!!

well i've bitten the bullet, made the move and all other cliches by signing up to do my first craft fair with one of my oldest friends, Sarah. Oldest as in we've known each other since we were 7 + 8, not that she's 92. we're both always crafting and talking about it when we meet up so we're going for it and doing a Christmas craft fair at Sedgefield Racecourse in .......5 days. eeeek!! lots to do. but at least it means i might actually stay up to date with blogging this week!!
here are some of the christmas decorations i'll be selling - you've already seen the gorgeous lil reindeer.
