Five seconds


Hello........Just a quick post today as I have quite a surprise to share with you


Yesterday evening a friend wrote on Facbook that my Summertime wreath was in Crafts Beautiful magazine (Aug) on the 'Your Space page' !!!

Wow really!! was my response, so off I went to find my copy that had also arrived yesterday. I'd resisted opening my magazine as I was saving it to take to the hospital today.


What a surprise, after the initial shock wore off I was over the moon, to see my little make in a magazine, happy, happy. My five seconds of crafty fame !!


Here's my wreath hanging in our lounge this morning,  the magazine says it was made in a weekend!! which maybe possible for someone it full health, but mine took me a few weeks to put together making some new roses and using some of the flowers from my Spring and Winter version of the wreath.

 I'm cockahoop and over the moon that they featured my make,  been smiling all day, despite the fact I'm off to see the Cardiologist for the first time this afternoon, to see if as well as ME/Lyme I have POTS.

The Internet is a amazing thing really, that someone crafting from there bed while ill can end up with a photo of there make in a magazine, so keep crafting everyone, you never know !!

Happy Crafting

  3. Woo hoo... well done you! It's such a fab wreath, it well deserves showcasing in a mag :-)
    And yes, I'm having the same trouble with my reading list - only showing one at a time, so glad it's not just me. I'm assuming blogger will get it sorted sometime and in the meantime I'm just going down my list of favourites in my sidebar to see what everyone is up to. Good luck with your appointment this afternoon - hope it goes well. Hugs xx
