2 pink possums....


well not pink but two aussie girls [not really girls anymore either but.....!!]

we had a fantastic day, had some good sales , some great feedback and prospective students signed up to classes.....

the town hall is a beautiful old building and we had really good crowds through. I don't think it was as busy as the first one which was pre Christmas but it was still great.





its the first time I've done a stall with my stuff and i was bit hesitant making it to sell but once i got going it was fine....i couldve sold heaps and heaps of pendants, they were a trial and error but now i have them worked out i will do more...











i had a disaster with the fridge magnets. I discovered at midnight i had glued them on all backwards[not juts one but all of them!] and they wouldn't stick to the fridge....who knew they had a right and wrong side , not me obviously !!lol
luckily hubby and luce helped me out and i got to bed at 1....
It was so nice to spend the day with Jenny and i have to say a BIG thank you to her for all her organising and running around for displays etc.... the bi fold stand she picked up was perfect for our canvases....

we didn't sell one canvas which was disappointing but anyway we have stock now for the Easter market...

and Ive just realised Ive had my top on inside out all day...lol luckily its one with the some seams meant to be outside anyways .....

i havent been around much lately as i have been busy makng for our market tomorrow...

jenny and i had great day on Wednesday and got our table dipslays organised, price tickets made and all those little things that need to be done......its was lots of fun but i left her house in the biggest mess...every room we had been in had stuff everywhere...mine looks like a bomb has hit !

Things must be bad when your daughter tells you she is disappointed because you haven't blogged about her leaving home ! i blogged all year about Charlie apparently.... i told her that I haven't blogged about Charlies 18th either or the fact that she hasn't received her quilt for her birthday yet so she was doing OK......:)

anyway two weeks ago Luce left home to go to college where she gets learn about all things equine. its a beautiful campus stuck out in the sticks and a working horse stud. she has settled in beautifully and is the most animated and happy i have seen her for ages.... she has been home both weekends but that will stop when her horse goes down next semester. its about 7hrs and two trains, too much .....
i think she has done so much growing up in the last two weeks ,

her room......we didnt have much time to get it all set up....

yes her tedda went down , looking the bit worse for wear!






nice campus huh?

OWOH winners...
i sent my journals off a good week ago so they should be getting close to you by now.....

I have also been making more journals thanks to Doreen for sending me some pattern paper [havent taken pics yet] and i have been making decoupaged bangles using paper napkins. I gessoed around the inside and then smudged oil crayons.




its all go here i tell you !!!!
