Opalshards I love the green set,and also the purple would be perfect for my wedding.

I haven't began to market them yet I have registered with Easy and Folksy. I made two clear crystal sets one with Butterflies and one with hearts but the file was too big to load. If you want anything special let me know and I will make it for you. If you don't like what I make you are under no obligation to buy. I will be charging £20 per set including P&P. I can only make a one off design (unique) as a lot of my beads are Lamp work one of a kind, so I can't make more than one set of that design. If you are interested please let me know. Hugs. Opal.x

No, they are hanging on the walls of family and friends. I thought I could do some things like that to sell on Etsy as a project for after September (not that I have even set up an Etsy account yet!). I am pretty much committed to getting crafty items made for our village craft stall in Sept, but I do have loads of picture frames stored in the spare room (2 big boxes of them) which I could upcycle and do pictures for.

However, I also have a third book in my historical novel series to edit, and am half way through a new young adult novel with a time shift element, so I should be getting on with those. I keep telling my husband there is no way I can possibly get a job with all the interests to follow!
Have you been published? Are they on Kindle? I like that genre.

I was always a big crafter all my adult life and tried all sorts and apart from knitting crochet and making clothes for my daughters when they were young I have made teddy bears miniature ones mostly with jointed limbs..collectors bears not toys...knitting for tiny porcelain dolls with really thin cotton and needles not much bigger than pins..Egg craft.. Faberge style egg decorating,... parchment craft, card making and recent years it was more shabby chic and altered art. I did run an online craft group and we swapped ATC's...Art Trading Cards... and other vintage style stuff. Not done much lately as my eyes are not to good at the moment just waiting to have my cataracts removed got my assessment next week then hope to do some more sewing cushion covers, bunting etc

Sounds fab. Post some pictures if you have any.

Today I am cutting felt eyes using one of those cutting machine thingies lent to me by another crafter in our village. I did try just cutting eyes freehand, but these will be better.

No, hadn't thought to do that as I imagined them for use in the garden. I will test one out tonight and see if the bottom gets hot. Probably won't as the heat should be rising, but then it could when all the wax is molten.
