Website news!

Wow what a week!! I've not managed to do HUGE amounts of crafting of late becuase I've been so busy trying to sort out my website. It's been driving me crazy but I'm slowly getting somewhere at last!! I've managed to add the 'door signs' and the 'hangers' pages on the 'fimo products'page on my website - www.craftsensations.co.uk

Other news - I've also been in talks with a lady about a possible big commission, booked in some Christmas fairs and am going to be doing a 'how to' piece for a local magazine!

Onwards and upwards!!

Have been a busy old bee as always! Lots on and trying to get my website sorted - it's taking forever but watch this space! Just been on my craft forum debating about grants from charities who ask for people a certain age, or those who are unemployed etc - it's so unfair! Still, it just means everyone will have to support me by buying loads of stuff once the website is sorted! There will be lots of things like this FIMO decorated notebook!

And here is the cake..


Ok so I like to think I'm quite creative and am ok at baking so I decided to make my Mum's 60th Birthday cake - and here is the result! Hmmm - I'm hoping she'll be so pleased with the home made-ness of it all she won't notice the bumpy icing or anything! I deffo think I'll stick to selling FIMO, cards and jewellery!! I really should have made a FIMO topper as well but I ran out of time.

Mum's Birthday


Well it's my Mum's 60th Birthday tomorrow so here is the card I've made her using a selection on pinks and lilacs. I'm really pleased with the result - hope she likes it too!

Latest comission!


I've just finished doing my latest comission - I was asked to make this door sign for a lovely lady who wanted it for her baby daughter and she was thrilled with the result. I bought the heart sign and then hand made the letters out of FIMO - just rolling them to fir the right size/shape etc. I made the flower out of FIMO too by rolling each petal into a ball and then flattening one end and squeezing the other and then sticking them all together, finished off with some varnish. For £6 I think the lady got a quality handmade item!

Poorly week!


Phew what a week! I've been ill in bed most of it with a tummy bug so not much time for crafting so for now I'll just add a quick pic - one of the cards I sold at the Swallowfield show a few weeks ago!

I'm so excited about my first post I thought I'd give another one a go! Here is a charm bracelet I've made in greens/turquoise - I'm really into chrams and braclets at the mo. They are very 'on trend' as my sis would say and I just like them because they remind me of when I was little!
I think these will be good for Christmas too, as will my FIMO models like this Noah's ark set!
