I think he is done (excuse messy craft room) Not sure why, but massive crisis of confidence in the middle of this one so I'm really pleased to have it finished. Will pop him on the post box tomorrow and get some better photos. #yarnBombing #PostBoxTopper #Crochet

I've been asked if I would consider making bespoke post box toppers for people to commission and put up in their own town. With my job search going so abysmally, I'm wondering if I'd be better off leaning into my strengths... Do you think people would be interested?

Thank you so much for the kind feedback tonight, I am going to give it a shot! I'll get to work on my first topper to sell over the next few days and will post it when finished, until then, here are a few of my other post box toppers from the last few months.

Woke up inspired, so I'm going to run with it. Making my first sample post box topper to sell, will list it for around £40 which I think will be a good reflection of the time, materials & creativity involved. If it sells, brilliant! If not, I have my Halloween Topper done early.

And this is why I am absolutely pants at making things to sell online. I start making the lil guy, fall for him while bringing him to life, give him a cute lil friend and then, well. He's mine now 🤣 There's no hope for some people! some people = me.

in today's job application faux pas... In the section for school grades, I apparently attained an outstanding grade in 'Integrated Humanitities' Thankfully caught it on the proof read before sending🤣

Day 5 of Slimming World and it's been a revelation! This is 3 SYNS as I opted for some light mayo today, but can't be bad when you can eat all of this for lunch 😋 #slimmingWorld

Something new for the craft fair or maybe Etsy? Going to make them in a rainbow of colours for £12 each? Feels expensive but after materials it’s about £2.50 per hour 😳
