My crafty stuff

I haven't yet finished Molly's (my little doggy) granny square blanket but seeing as i haven't posted up any crafty pictures, i thought i might do it now!

Here is just a little snipit of the first granny square i ever made! they are quite small! The blanket is turning out really cute but i had no idea how long it would take!!

I started to really fall in love with craft when i found the beading forum! After making jewllery, I sold a heap on Ebay but there fees were SO high that it makes it so hard to sell small items, So i figured i'd just have a website. www.bbeaded.com the hardest part was getting it out there so people would have a look. I was little bit discouraged as i was really passionate about it but just couldnt compete with all of the stuff from China!!! People can buy it for half the price when it comes from China.

Starting this thing again - with a new obsession!

So, i started this thing when i was into beads but over the last month or so i have learnt how to crochet and i have to say, i cant pull my self away from it. i had no idea there were so many different things you could do with 1 hook and some wool. i always thought you could only make scarfs but boy was i wrong! i have joined up to 2 FANTABULOUS forums,

there are sooo many talented people out there and i hope to be one of them!!

from now on i am going to try and post up all of my upcoming project... for any one who really cares :)

love me
