Just over 100 days to go until...yup, Christmas!

I know it's only September, but a friend of mine reminded me (via FB) that there are just over 100 days to go until Christmas.  One part of me is thinking "That's still about a third of a year...ages!".  The other part is thinking "Oh my goodness (and worse, I confess), I have done next to nothing in readiness for what should be a busy old time for me, next to nothing!...Yikes!".

Set of 4 Bright Farm Animal decoupage hearts with delicate organza ribbon hanging detail

Now, those of you who have been following me will know I have taken on 2 days at the Winchester Handmade indoor Christmas Fayre.  Not one, no!  Two...I have no idea what will sell and so am panicking slightly (Okay, a lot!).  I have a fair amount of driftwood products made and ready and plan to make more but I am itching to push my decoupage hearts and stars which are gorgeous and epitomise the 'debris' side of my business - upcycled wrapping paper, pages from books, old maps and so on.  I am finally using up bits of paper I have clung onto for years because "I knew they would come in useful one day!"


So, I am plodding along creating gorgeous hearts and stars and hope that others think they are equally gorgeous.  They are keenly priced and available to view or buy in my Etsy shop.
