I don't usually make new years resolutions but I am thinking carefully about things i would like to change in my personal life.
* Make family Birthday cards in plenty of time for posting.
* I do think one think that i need to do is to use some of the things that are already on the shelves in my craft room.
12 x 12 paper storage a rack bought from a closing down sale of a craft shop near me.
Stampin up rubber stamp sets are brilliant and they have there own little clam shell cases, so easy to label and easy to find a set.
The shelves are a new addition to my craft room and make so much more space and free up the desk for making more projects.
My workspace.
Ribbon storage also bought from the closing down sale at my local craft shop.
Labelled storage drawers from WH Smith
My messy workspace
My Helper, he hasn't quite understood that the peel off's go on the card & not on his head.
Whatever your resolutions I wish you and yours a very
Happy & Healthy 2008

I also aim to make cards earlier than I do. I tend to rush one the day before so I can get it into the post. Also, as I did a craft show in August and spent most of the summer making cards, I couldn't be bothered with Christmas cards. I could have made some well in advance and sold them at work etc. I made 9 personalised ones for someone at work but that's all I sold. I even bought the great value Christmas stamper kit through Docrafts and haven't used a thing out of it. I ended up buying my Christmas cards to family - eek! I'm most disappointed in myself! Must get cracking this year! My new computer arrives on 7 Jan and I have CD rom to play with so hopefully will start churning out some cards soon!
ReplyDeleteApart from the usual losing weight, I want to make even better cards in 2008 and sell more. I started doing craft fairs towards the end of the year and told my husband it would be occasionally, there was three in November!!!! I am not doing any in January as I am down to have a minor op, next craft fair is the end of February. I also hope to learn more parchment. I wish you a very Happy crafting new year and the best of health for 2008.Margaret D. from do craft forum.
ReplyDeleteLove your craft room - thought I was organised, but not a patch on you, lol. Could do with finding a closing down craft shop I think.
