New beginnings and big changes....

OK, so I've been appalling at keeping this blog updated.  However, things have taken a huge turn for me and there have been lots of changes in my household.  I want to keep a blog to show how crafting and small businesses evolve which will hopefully inspire and help others just like me.

The first news is that I gave up work.

The second news is that my hobby is now my work!  I was approached by a business called Bramble & Bauble and asked to supply stock as they liked what I made.  They are specialising in vintage-inspired items.

The best news is that Bramble & Bauble are running the Pop Up Britain flagship store opposite Richmond Station in the run up to Christmas, so from 10th - 23rd December my crafts will be sold on the high street!  I am obviously dizzy with excitement about it all and at the same time, things are moving so fast I am frantically trying to keep up with demand.

Because so much is happening I wanted to document it and share it with you.  It may be massively successful or I may not sell a thing, but in the words of Derek Trotter... "he who dares, wins", so let's give it a go! 

I hope you will join me in this little adventure.  

I am currently awaiting an order for some really lush wool so in the meantime I will be updating this blog with pictures of all the makes I have done over the past year.  You can also visit my Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/FunkyPo
