OOooops !!!

Well they say a change is as good as a holiday ... so I'm having a Caribbean, Sunny, Volcanic break !!! based on the new hair colour ... ooops maybe it's a little 'different' so I'm back on an ORANGE faze ???? Hey maybe I look good in orange ??? Oh well the hair will grow and the colour will eventually fade ... wanted to make a statement for when Paul arrives and hey it says on the box : 'Craving some Personal ATTENTION?' well !!!! what's the problem then ?

AFTER:

Does it look like I'm going bald tooo !!!! O.M.G!!! No it's just it's been cut really short again .... with all the water sports (LOL) I'm doing it is so much easier !!!!

OK rest of Weekend ... Saturday the show was busy ... not too many big spenders but the sales were there and I think Penny was very, very happy with the final tally .... I think we'll be doing that show again and as we have nothing to compare it to !!!! We did manage to get about 8 pages of addresses etc. to start our mailing list ... everybody and I mean everybody was desperately looking to do workshops !!!! Like I have a problem with that ... all I have to do now is find 'bricks & mortar'!!!!(some of them even begged to come to my classes ... they thought I was fun!!! LOL they will learn eventually !!!... no comments you lot out there !!!) ;-)

Here's some photos of the bit's & pieces I made eventually .... by Saturday I had mastered the clay ... and it's properties ... Penny still thinks the vase of flowers should be on her shelf !!!! .... I decided to keep even the broken ones ... thought I could make a 'he loves me, he loves me not' card with the broken off petals !!!! How good am I eh?

I made the necklaces based on the colour schemes I was going to wear each day ....that's the beauty of making your own jewellery .... These little roses came about because there was another stand that was selling 'porcelain roses' 1 rose for the price of a whole block of our clay ... so I stared demonstrating how to make your own roses ... before I knew it I was also showing the 'cake decorators' how to make roses out of 'plastic icing & moulding paste' .... Seems now-a-days they just use moulds ... so I showed them how easy it was to do these, no more moulds sold! ...at 1 point we had about 20 cake decorators standing around !!! See how versatile I am !!!!

The final vase .... by the end of the weekend ... Penny I promise I'll make you a vase too .... with all the left overs from the weekend .... ;-)

All the heart pendants ... Penny broke one of the main cutters I had started out using so we went to plan B ... I then used the heart cutters instead !!!! Yes I know Mudpie - I don't do hearts, but the customers doooo !!! and they loved these too ... mind you so do I now ...

Don't ask me what I'm going to do with all the hearts ... I'm sure I'll make a plan !!! In fact I can just see them hanging on a wire tree standing in The Polymer Clay Store ... when we get it opened !!!

Yesterday was a proper ... day of rest ... long lie in ... it was wet & miserable ... lots of comfort food ... book reading and 'girly' sloppy movie watching ... Kelsey also had a long lie in. "They didn't get much sleep but they had a lot of fun" at camp and I think he was grateful for a weekend of nothing-ness .... Mind you he can't wait for dad to come out now ... he's mastered all his current games and he's hoping dad is going to bring him some more ????

Only 10 more sleeps till dad gets here !!!!! 11 more sleeps till the school holidays, hurray !!!!
