Nappy Cakes
I might be taking a Nappy Cake along to this craft fair tomorrow...
Nothing's been priced up yet, it's just to see if there's any interest. The one on display is the one I've made for Lu (who is due to pop quite soon). This one is a Large 3 Tier Cake, and contains
The cakes would be made to order, the number of nappies (and number of tiers) can be reduced (or increased if you want even more, I suppose!) and the other contents altered, depending on requirements and budget. For this cake I think you'd be looking at least £70, but it is pretty huge!!
A smaller 3 tier cake could contain 50 nappies and various lotions and potions, and cost somewhere around £50. And 1 and 2 tiers would cost less again.

Crafty Crafty!
I'll be running a stall at a craft fair on Saturday! How exciting!
It's a bit scary... far too much planning for my liking. It'll be held in the Mackintosh Sports and Social Centre in Roath (Cardiff) as part of the weekly Farmers' Market, open from 9.30 til 3.
I shall let you know how it goes... and perhaps make a list of things I took, and recommendations for next time.
So far I'm taking

New Stuff!
I've been very good recently... I've made many things, and taken photos of them!
It's all coming together!
This month I have be mostly making spectacle chains and LANYARDS! Oh yes. I have found something new to make. They're very much like my glasses chains, but also completely different.
I'd started a couple a while ago, just playing around... I'd given one to my mum to test for me (though she used it to put the caravan key on, rather than an ID card.) And it stayed in one piece. And she didn't lose the key. Success! {edit - It turns out it wasn't a caravan key. It was a bunch of keys. About 10 of them!! If that's not a test of durability, I don't know what is...}
The just last week I had an email from a lovely lady asking if it would be possible to adapt one of my glasses chains to hold an ID card. Well... it just so happened I had just what she was asking for in my stash (unfinished) Which of course, is where it remains, because I'd decided on a different method for the new ones...
So this is the one completed to order: It's the Spring Pearls Lanyard/ID holder (with a cord attachment)
and I've made some more (I'm on a roll now!)
There's the Burgundy hearts:
And I've made another two tonight... But I can't take photos at the moment, because my camera's making terrible terrible noises when you switch it on. But I'll get round to it!
Aaaaannd... There are Rosary beads! Oh, it's been a very productive week!
