Off to market again.

I haven't had a market stall since December so I suppose it's about time. Between the proper paying job, and everything else that goes on around here, there's not much time for anything else.

Here's a sneak peek at a few of my friends who will accompany me to Made 'n Thornbury Craft Market on Saturday the 23rd of March.

They've all hopping  up and down with excitement. Hope to see you there if you happen to be in the area.

I haven't blogged for quite a while as my camera died on me and I haven't been able to put up any photos.

I recently had a stall at the Made 'n Thornbury Craft Market and had a great day. They included photos of my crocheted vege bowls on their wrap up blog and they photographed really well. They sold well also, so that was a bonus. Hope you like them.

See more crafty people on their blog and market details if you're interested.

That's me for today. I got a new camera for my birthday, so hopefully some more photos soon.

Made 'n Thornbury

Three more weeks until the next Made 'n Thornbury Craft Market and I've managed to get my old work colleague and friend Michelle to join the other clever talented women there.

She's been handcrafting and selling her gorgeous bags and other goodies for a few years now on line, but I think this is her first market. Check out her creations at facebook.com/mishmashdesigns.

Mark the 5th of May on your calendar to drop by and pick up a wonderful handmade gift for your Mum (or yourself) for Mother's Day!  See madenthornbury.blogspot.com.au.

Hope to see you there, Donna

A little bit of crafting.

I've been busy doing a few cards for the Mother's Day Made 'n Thornbury Market to add to the stockpile I already have. I know it sounds early, but it'll be here before we know it.

Hope you like them!

Gotta love a handmade Christmas.

Those cushions I mentioned in my last blog. A little bright, but I was quite pleased with them.

Lemon butter made from our own lemons to give to friends this year. I always make an extra jar for myself of course. My niece likes it that much that she eats it with a spoon. Sadly she lives in NZ so I can't send her any. That would be the perfect present for her. A jar and a spoon!

This year's Asian themed Christmas card using assorted origami papers that I found at the $2.80 Japanese store at Northland Shopping Centre. Bargain!

And personalised ornaments for all the kids in the family. I started doing this when my son was born and it seems to have become a family tradition. I didn't do them one year and all hell broke loose! My sister's 3 kids are going to need 2 trees to put them all on by the time the all reach 18, but I'm so glad they appreciate them. Sometimes I do a small cross-stitch, or something beaded, but always something different with their name and the year on it somewhere. I like to think that my son will keep his and show them to his own kids one day and maybe even hang them on his own tree.
