Scattered

Post holiday sale blues again, overwhelmed with too much stuff and not enough ideas. I've made some things though. 

First and foremost, a finished stitch! 


I've already started on the next stitch. 


Obviously at the moment you will have no idea what it is. I'm not telling!

I also made an eye chaim necklace, using my new pliers. A couple of issues, but not bad. 


I've also been using a resin kit from resin8 which I got in the sales. This was a necklace one, and so far I've made 2 necklaces. 





It's the first time I've managed to successfully dome a resin piece, so I'm getting better!
Until next time

I woke up the other day and it was as if someone had flipped a switch. All of the self-confidence that I had built up through my crafting over the last year has disappeared - just like that. I've spent the large majority of my life thinking that I am not good enough; in what I do, what I say, in short, in who I am. With crafts I was finally starting to believe in myself. So it is very hard at the moment, as I feel that I am right back at square one. I am hoping that this is temporary, and that I will soon feel myself again. I have to remind myself that I am very early in my crafting journey, and there are bound to be bumps along the way. I am aware that it is probably linked to my current state of high anxiety, as susta...

Drawering a crowd

So, this week I've done something a little different. This is before... This is after.... Obviously there's two of them! These are my mums bedside drawers, which are over 30 years old and now have a new lease of life.  I've also been working on the stitch. 31% down now. Until next time Ems
