save me from the poorhouse!

 I should have spent the morning tidying in preparation for the arrival of the in-laws, but instead I have been reopening my etsy shop!  Wow!  It has been a long time coming, but my bank balance (ouchy) gave me the final little nudge I needed this week.  In my shop you'll find lots of familiar items and also, more excitingly, these EastEnders Christmas cards.

 I actually made them for last Christmas, but they arrived back from the printers a few days after Dulcie's early arrival, so (other than a few that Claire took to markets for me and a handful that I sold in Made In The Shade's Maisonette) they have been under wraps all year.

 They are available in four varieties - Dot, Ethel (and Willy), Pat and Frank - each for £2 a pop.

I can't believe Pat died in the time it took me to list them.  Sigh...

I've also added a wee sale section to my shop.  I'm trying to clear out so I can downsize and turn my craft room into a craft corner, so I thought now might be a good time of year to offer some canny shoppers a wee bargain or two.  So far I've listed some mini TV embroideries (remember them?) and some large EastEnders embroideries.  I'll also be adding the last few small EastEnders embroideries when I get another five minutes and maybe some other bits and pieces, though I'm making no promises about that.  I probably won't find the time to touch the shop again until June or so.  I'll be so busy packing up everyone's purchases, you see!  Ha!  Goodness, I'm so out of the loop.  In every regard.  Go and visit my shop and if you can't bring yourself to buy anything, at least favourite something for me.  I think I need a crafty confidence boost.  I feel like a fraud posting about my wares after all this time.  But I think my new Christmas cards rock, actually.  There, I said it, so you don't have to :)

Edit: Look!  Now you can get the Christmas cards at Miso Funky too!  Yay!
