My MISI Shop!

Well, I bit the bullet and signed up to MISI!!

Ok, so I haven't actually put anything in there yet, but it's a start. I managed to find some good info for my delivery and return stuff on the Crafts Forum (cheers peeps!) because I haven't really got that much of a business mind.

I've got a craft fair sorted for Saturday, at the Fishmarket in the centre of Northampton so I'm holding off putting too much stuff on my MISI site until I know what I've got left! I've still got loads of Christmas cards left but I don't think they would sell too well at the moment, so I won't put them on for the sake of making the site look full! I'm going to have a crafty evening (after I've made tea!) so I should have some stuff up there by the end of the week. I keep having a look round at other people's prices, because I don't want to make it too expensive but on the other hand I don't want to look as though I'm giving it away. If anyone has any advice and wants to message me, feel free!


So a lot of my cards at the moment have hearts all over them in preparation for February 14th, I like to keep them quite simple so they appeal to a wider variety of people (I've even had positive feedback from my Dad!!).

I got some great thick, pink handmade paper which I've managed to use a lot of but it was just so pretty that I couldn't stop myself - it looks so nice that I could always try and make a dress out of it for a female birthday card

Ok, so you might have guessed that I'm no Bill Gates. I'm struggling a bit adding my photo's - I tried to use the picasa thingy, but it wouldn't add the slideshow to my blog. I've got my images on a memory stick so I'll add them bit by bit. If you have any feedback on them, I'd love to hear what people think.

My First Blog

Ooh, I'm quite excited about my first blog - not that I've got a clue what to write in it!

The last blog I kept was during my training for the Edinburgh Marathon in 2008, but I've a feeling this one is going to be slightly different!

I got into crafting about 5 months ago, when I was looking for a hobby. I've never really been that creative, but thought that I could give it a go and see where it leads. 3 craft fairs down, and a bit of spare cash raised I'm still here. I don't think I'll ever be as good as some other people out there, but I do my own thing - if people like it, great!

I'm going to have a go at putting up some pictures of my cards over the next few days for people to have a look at. I've had a bit of positive feedback from the kind people on the Crafts Forum and my friends and family seem to like them, so I must be doing something right!
