January Blues

Usually I don't bother
measuring...

January was a really poor month - that is unless you are about 12, then you probably though it was really good! It was basically too cold and snowy to do much of anything. At one point we were buried under about 4 inches of snow! Now, those of you further north/east of us will probably think that 4 inches isn't very much but it's not very often we get that much....

The Christmas orders took on a life of their own! It's amazing what happens when you start telling people you can make things. Thankfully not all of the things we were asked if we could do were for Christmas, but we are still doing some of them even now! We did a quick calculation of how many weeks are left until April's Whitby Goth Weekend. Let's just say we were a little shocked when it turned out there are just 12 weeks left.

With this in mind and a month where nothing really could be done, we made a few tweaks to our Etsy Emporium. We've renamed and re-jigged some of the sections to reflect some of the new ideas and products we hope to put on there over coming weeks and take to April's Whitby Goth Weekend.

If you haven't already had a look, we've created a page with a picture of  all (if we remember to take a picture of them before giving them to the recipient!) the things we have made.

Watch this space - we anticipate a large flurry of activity over the next 12 weeks....
