New Year and New Achievements

I enjoy the challenge of something new. Solving a puzzle leaves me feeling happy. For a long time Oly and I had been trying to think of a way to make toiletry bottles without spending a fortune and getting into mixing resins, hardeners and colours. Little by little as the months passed we tried several ideas but finally we perfected a way that suits us! I made so many I had to design some display stands for them.

Then I got carried away with the stand making and made even more, so filled them with bling! I love sparkly.

Solving one problem produces another! Now the Ladies Shop needs more tables and shelving!

Christmas Rug

Hooray! Tonight, almost two years after I started it, I've finished my little rug for the Christmas house. It's been one of those on-going things I pick up every now and then.

All I have to do now is work out how to get the fully laden shelves to stick to the walls. I thought I was being clever using a hot glue gun but because the walls are painted, they didn't stay up long. Surely I haven't got to empty out the house and sand the walls? Anyone got any good ideas, I've only got until Christmas!
