I'm online!

Well PeggyCrafts has been up and running for two days and it seems that a few people have been stopping by already to see it. Thank you to all who have spared a minute to visit my Mrs. Flower population! :)


I'm going to really enjoy the chance of a relaxing Sunday today..drink lots of tea...do some sewing...watch tv... :) woohoo!


I went to Bury Market in Manchester yesterday, it was great, and I can really recommend it to anyone who lives near to Manchester. There's loads of great fabric stalls, including a few who sell all the trimmings (zips, buttons). We also saw quite a few cardmaking stands, people selling the papers, trims, pens etc. A fun day out if you're in the Northwest, plus we stopped at Heaton Park on the way home, and actually managed to catch some sunshine!!

Finishing Touches!!

I'm spending this evening finalising my website and adding pictures. It feels as though I've been picture-taking, uploading, tweaking and typing forever now - I really admire crafters who have huge ranges of things on their sites!

Anyway, it's been a massive learning experience for me to design and build a website, so I'm quite proud of myself. I just hope that people will tootle along and have a look at my things and leave me comments.

I'm not charging postage for this first weekend (Friday 5 - Sunday 7) as it is my grand opening (!!!) so I want as many people as possible to stop by and grab a Mrs. Flower or two!!

Wish me luck everyone :)

Big Bro

Yes that's right I'm watching Big Bro. Nope, not embarrassed, I love it!!

Also went for a nice swim earlier on and decided to stop at Tesco on the way home for milkshake ingredients :))))) Hmmm! Our super milkshake tip is to add a couple of scoops of Ovaltine to a milkshake, it makes it all tasty and sweet and sooo nice - it goes with any flavour and it's sooo good!!

Only 3 days, yes 3 days until http://www.peggycrafts.co.uk/ opens itself up to the big wide world, I'm very excited and have been sewing like a crazy lady for the last few weeks. I've decided to make a whole category for felty embellishments, because all the cute ideas I have could be used for anything - pins, card toppers, bag decorations, all kinds :) all will be revealed in a day or two :)
