About Me

My photo
I am married to a wonderful man ,we have 8 children between us and 4 grandchildren. I love arts and crafts. I have been crafting for almost 50 years! My interst in all things arty started as a small child and has never ceased. I have made my own wedding dresses (I have been maried 3 times!)bridesmaid dresses.I have enjoyed designing and creating many celebration and wedding cakes . I created my own wedding invitations and other wedding stationary. In the past I have designed and made silk wedding flowers. I love sewing,knitting and crochet.I designed and stitched my daughters'and granddaughters' christening gowns, which I hope will be passed down and used through generations to come. When I left school after taking my A. levels I worked in the civil service. For several years I worked in clerical posts before deciding it was not for me. I have had many jobs but found retail was the sort of job I enjoyed. I worked up to the level of Area Manager for a busy fashion retailer before leaving to raise my second 2 children. Throughout all of this I learnt many creative skills and enjoyed using them in my life

DIY oh why oh why.....

Hello This weekend my Hubby has decided to DIY.... He has painted the hall stairs and landing (after the new carpet was laid...)
Now he is putting down a new wood floor in the hall.
I will be glad to see this floor finished. We have 3 cats and a dog 3 bikes an 11 year old footballer and all my husband's tools that regularly paraded thro the hall... the carpet was originally a pale biscuit/cream colour . No amount of cleaning would rescue its original colour/texture.

Started my new job this week. I have gone back to work at a previous company i worked for. It feels as if I have never been away. We opened a new shop it was hard work but great to be back with people who really know what team work is all about.

It only took Amanda , my manager, half a day to increase my hours... she thought she had slipped that in on the rota without me noticing!!!!

I will take a photo of the finished floor before the cats bikes dog footballer and DIY man walk on it !  Bye for now x
