Published!!!
Well my first visit after leaving hospital with my beautiful baby girl, saw me popping into Tesco to pick up the latest copy of 'Craftseller'. I love browsing the pages to look for new ideas, business advice and general crafting gossip. This time however I opened the pages to discover, to my total shock I might add. a picture of one of my upcycled pieces. After much screaming and excited squeals and of course after making everyone in the house come and see, I discovered that it was a star letter which had won a £10 voucher! Yeah!! Here is an image of the article,
What a great boost. As if that wasn't enough however I have just discovered that another magazine I get called 'Simple Homemade' has posted an image of one of my signature necklaces on their website as an example of what some of their readers had been creating! It may only be one pic, and no name mentioned but if the image is clicked it goes straight to this blog!! I am still excited!! My first external link I think.
Both these have come about through the wonders of Pinterest!! I totally love the site and all the things it offers. In fact I think my next post will be a tutorial on how to set it up and use it. There are so many wonderful ideas out there and I want them all!!! (cunning laugh!)
WoW!!! Well done you ! & congrats on your new arrival too !

ReplyDeleteI would be really interested in your pinterest guide, as I keep thinking about venturing into it, but have hesitated because I don't completely get it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new arrival. The first time I went out shopping with my daughter I couldn't remember why I was there :) Even more congratulations on appearing in the magazine. What a wonderful start to the year.
