Once again Wendy is hosting Handmade Monday over on her blog, and I will be joining her of course. It's lovely to catch up with everyone and see what they have been up to over the week.
Last week there was a little bit of interest in my phone's retro camera app. I really enjoy using it and have taken loads of pictures with it now. Here are a couple for those who asked!
And of course my new logo at the top of the page was taken using the app too!
It has been a busy week here. I have now officially set up my Facebook page and my Folksy shop (although I have yet to add any stock to it) and I am fulfilling some orders for baby hats, which I posted up on my Facebook page. I had a change of heart halfway through making some and have changed the yarn. Initially I was using a chunky wool but now feel that aran gives a much softer, lighter feel for the smaller hats. I will still use the chunky for hats for bigger children though.
I'm hoping to get some more makes up on my Facebook page by the end of the week. I'm not planning on specialising in baby hats! I have got a few ideas and plans in motion to turn them into reality, when I get a spare five minutes that is! I really don't know how people find the time to turn handmade into a living, I tip my hat with the utmost respect to those who manage it!
Well that's all from me this week. Busy, busy day, especially if I want to find some time to catch up with all the other lovely crafty bloggers too!
Just before I go, just time to mention that Bath Bomb Creations have a linky party too from the 2 feb. try and pay them a visit...their link is in my sidebar!
Til next time!

You have been busy, the photos are great and sometimes you hit on something that works and those hats work
The hats are lovely. I know a couple having a baby later next year so I may be popping by for a buy at a later date!
Considered yourself followed on facebook.
The photos really set of the cute hat though :)

I love that little hat, so cute. I hope you have good luck with your business. I admire people who do that! And I wish I lived in the UK, it seems like you all have such fun!
The photographs look fab and I like your new logo. Have liked your facebook page and will look out for more of your makes.
Good luck with the hats!

The photo's look great, I've been playing around with a few settings on mine and finding loads of things I didn't realise I could do.
The little hat looks really sweet. Well done
Take care
