Scull & Crossbones and Fairy Doors!!

Last week I missed taking part in Handmade Monday, in fact I haven't done a blog post for a couple of weeks but now I'm back. But just because I haven't blogged doesn't mean I haven't been busy, I've done a couple of fairs and I'd say my table done 'fair to middling'. My best seller at the first event was my 'Keep Out' Plaques

'Keep Out' Plaques

and at the second event were orders for Personalised Name Plaques. Hopefully I will show you these in future posts.

Another successful item were my new Fairy Door Key Rings, these are now listed in my Folksy Shop

Fairy Door Key Rings

As most of you know I do like my Fairy Doors and I made these after a request from a customer, they don't have to be used as key rings, they are great for zip pulls on jackets or bags, one little girl bought one to put on her pencil case. They are a great pocket money buy and it looks like I'll be making a few more, I may even do a few as fridge magnets to go along side my Beach Hut Magnets

This week Handmade Monday is being held at Handmade Harbour, it's still hosted by Wendy so I hope you will pop over and say 'hi'.

That's all for now, take care

Jan x

    Wouldn't dare to go near those bedrooms, boys will really love those!

    And the keyrings would make a brilliant party bag gift for little girls... well now you have covered the market! :)

    Not surprised the Keep Out signs are popular, I know one or two little girls that would love those too!
