Yes it's true, I made my very own handbag!!! FINALLY i HAVE FINISHED SOMETHING!!!!
I was very proud of the effort I made with this - from sourcing the fabric, colour choice, and design, all the way through to the manufacture and finishing embellishments, I am quite a proud young lady!!! (Can I get away with young lady anymore - me thinks not!!!)
But I must confess, I can't take all the credit for this wonderful creation. My beautiful mother was wholly responsible for ensuring that the handbag looked like a handbag in the end, and not a ball in a sock!!! I went to her with my ideas, and sat down with me and guided me, step by step through the sewing process - and voila - This is what it's all about!!!!
So now all I have to do is get lots and lots of people interested in buying a bag like this, and eventually, I'll do the designs, mum will do the sewing and I'll finish off with the embellishments. It's going to be a wonderful journey - but I think I'm finally raring to go!!!!!
Christmas is just around the corner, so I have to prepare myself for the festive season. Big plans this year for some home made stuff - presents & tree decorations made out of pottery, hand made lip balm for the teachers, even potato stamped & family photo embellished Christmas cards to get out before the fat man visits!!
We have a 5 year old turning 6 next week - it's always very exciting when the birthdays get closer - we have a few parties planned - I think there's going to be 4 cakes in total!!! But that was one thing that I was always going to do when I became a mum - make whatever kind of cake my babies wanted!!!! xxx
