Selling My Handmade Cards And Crafts.

I've been making cards for about 8 months now and have now started to sell them. I've had a few people that have put orders in and loved the cards I've done for them. I try to get what people are asking for if not then close to it. But it's a really slow process to build up on. I've been thinking about doing something along side my card making and have come up with book folding art.

I think with my cards and the book folding art they will have everything under one roof so to speak. If they want a card made they can also pick to have a book art as well as a present and have them sent together. It saves them looking elsewhere for a present when they can get it under the same roof. What I like about book folding is its different, its unusual and makes a lovely feature to look at.

I want to make something that people would like to buy and would love the look of it. I need something to take up my time when the children are at school and nursery and once I've done all the housework as being a stay at home mum can get pretty boring and you find yourself doing the same thing day in day out. I love making my cards don't get me wrong but I just want to try something new.

I find when I'm making my cards it relaxes me and that's what I love as I can sit there for hours making cards so to put my cards and book art together and make it as one I hope people will be happy and they will put orders in for the book art as well. But only time will tell. I'm in a lot of craft groups where I can post what I have made, and I get quite a lot of like and comments telling me how beautiful they are.

I'm hope that the two will go hand in hand and it will take off quite well and if it doesn't then I can donate them to charity or give them away as presents but at least I will be able to say I tried. And that's all that matters.

Starting Slimming World.

For a long time I've been wanting to lose weight and doing on my own wasn't helping me or seeing a change, so I started looking for things I could do or places I could try.

So I started Slim Fast and that didn't help, I had done Weight Watchers in the past and again I didn't see any change so I stopped doing them.

My friends all started to talk about Slimming World and that they have joined their local groups and said that I should as well (if I wanted to).

At first I was in two minds as to join or not but then I started to see that my friends were getting results and their weight was going down, it really helped them.

So I started to look at information about it and asked any questions that I had. Then I found out later by one of the groups that really made me happy.

They often offer (in the women magazine) for free membership so all you had to pay is £4.95 per week.

If you couldn't get the offer them the membership would cost £5+£4.95. The £5 is a one off fee but you would need to pay £4.95 everytime you went.

 I am going to join my local group and I'm hoping it will work for me as I would like to lose most of my weight before I go back to butlins in may 2017.

I will be happy if I can get down to a size 16-18 or 18-20 in clothes (not sure what that is in weight) but it will be a weight that o will be happy with.

My weight started to build up after having my children and then I ended up with gale stones and having to have my gale bladder taken out.

So the weight just started to build and build. I will keep an up-to-date weigh in every week and will keep you all informed how I'm finding the group.

I will let you all know what my weight is before I start Slimming World and keep my week-to-week weight and how much I have lost or gained.

I will also include recipes for you all. Until then, speak to you soon.
