Another sale!

Phew! My Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale has just finished and the editing of all the shop information has ended too (long job!) I am now offering another sale but this time on (most of) my large envelopes. I haven't been happy with the style of them and have designed some new ones that are more envelope shaped and that are self sealing so no fiddling with sticky tape for you to get them closed!

The above envelopes can be found for half price (£2.50) in my Folksy shop. Along with lots of others!

And these are a couple of the sets in my Etsy shop. There are more in there too!

Happy Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of those celebrating today :) And if you aren't celebrating then you can still enjoy festive cheer as I am offering a huge 35% off sale in my Etsy shop until the end of play on Monday 26th November! It's a Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale and it's 35% off ALL items in my shop including my already reduced sale items!

Little Gardenia's normal price is £8.00 and for this weekend she is reduced to just £5.20!

Maureen, the one of a kind doorstop, is normally £12.00 but she is reduced to £7.80!

My packs of 10 gift tags are reduced from £3.00 to just £1.95 and this means that the sets of 5 gift tags are under a pound at just 98p :)

So go and grab yourself a bargain! Sorry, I mean Christmas presents for those you love :)

P.S. If you are visiting my shop late on Friday night or during Saturday you may notice that I am low on stock. This is because I am attending the Green Party Christmas fair in Lancaster (Friends Meeting House, 10-4, just next to the train station!) on Saturday and I have taken all of my one-off items out of the shop just in case they sell at the fair! If they don't sell then they will be back in the shop late on Saturday. And if you are reading this on Thursday and you spot something, go and buy it now, just in case it goes ;)

Notebooks, get your notebooks!

I have been planning some new style notebooks for a while but haven't done anything about the new design as I still have some old style in stock. So to get my bum into gear and actually start making the new notebooks I am offering the last 4 notebooks for sale at half price - yep half price! They are perfect for Christmas gifts!

In my Etsy shop you can find

It has 80 pages and measures 20cm by 29cm (8in x 11 1/2in)  and it's down to $5/£3.08 now.

This one also has 80 pages and measures 18cm by 25 cm (7in x 10in) and is also $5/£3.08. The tear on the front cover has been covered with some green striped washi tape which looks good :)

In my Folksy shop you can find

This one has 50 pages and measures 21cm by 18cm (8in x 7in) and is now down to £2.25/$3.64

And this one has 70 pages and measures 18cm by 27cm (7in x 10 1/2in) and is reduced in price to £3.25/$5.27

They are all filled with blank paper although some of this is reclaimed from local companies who have changed their headed paper etc. 

Go grab a bargain!

P.S. The new notebooks will still be made from book covers but will be refillable :)

Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale

I'm having a big sale over in my Etsy shop - everything is 15% off with the code BLACKFRIDAY2011

Stock up on chicken doorstops and pincushions/paperweights as gifts, envelopes to send your cards out in and gift tags to adorn your beautifully wrapped gifts :) The code will end on Monday so fill your boots! I will be adding new stock over the weekend too so do check back.

Half Price button brooches

These brooches are now half price in my Etsy shop sale section.

And these ones are available in my Folksy sale section. They look great on winter coats :)

First jumble sale finds

It's such fun going to the sale as you never know what you will find. Matt grabbed some storage jars for us in his £3 bag* so these probably cost less than 50p for the set (there are two more of the green and red ones that are destined for the craft room!)

Now we didn't really need any more storage jars as the old ones were perfectly functional but they were shiny metal and almost impossible to keep clean.

See - shiny! These are now in the charity shop hopefully raising some money :)

I really like my new storage jars and blogging about them today fits in nicely with a post I saw over on The Really Good Life about second hand kitchenalia. A huge amount of the stuff in our kitchen is secondhand and very little matches which makes it fun I think! In fact if you look at the first picture again the Bob the Builder mug, the apple storage jars and the mug tree are all secondhand. In fact I must do a blog post about all the thrifted/gifted stuff in our kitchen.

*It's a 4 day sale and on the last day you can fill a black bin bag full of stuff for £3 - bargain! Although I do remember when it used to cost £1 per bag :)

Sale items!

I don't know if you know but I have a sales section in my Etsy shop.

It's the last of the sections if you fancy having a look :) There were 10 items in there last night but one of the Less than Half Price chickens sold overnight so there are only 9 things there now. Things like this;

I have also added a sale section to my Folksy shop too so you can pick up a few bargains there too :)

Sale items part 3 - clothes

There are lots of items so you might need a brew to sit through this!

A pretty blouse with pink embroidery - needs a new button but I have plenty :)


Spotty!

A very cool jumper - and it fits perfectly!

This is apparently from a series of crime novels but I thought it might be for this lady :) It's perfect for exercising.

This is perfect for walking in - I wore it yesterday.

Tiger t-shirt. I couldn't resist it even though it will only be worn in bed!

Matt and my mum laughed when I got this but they did concede that it looks better on :)

Two fab tank tops - the one at the top was new.

Another dress

A light cotton dress with pretty lace collar - perfect for summer.

Gorgeous pink skirt

Bright yellow skirt

A trio of pretty nightgowns

A very cute Wombles t-shirt that is too small for Tara - boo. I might keep it for the teddies :)

And the piece de resistance is this wonderful 3 piece bikini. Does it fit - yes. Does it look good - no! The bra section doesn't leave much to the imagination and the shorts are a little tight. However I couldn't leave it there even with the howls of laughter from my mum :)

That is the last of the sale goodies - part one is here and part two is here. Not bad for 2 and a half bags full!

Dawanda promotion

I re-opened my Dawanda store just in time! There is a huge promotion going on over there at the moment - it's called the Discovery Sale and basically you get 15% off in a shop if you haven't shopped there before - only if the shops are participating that is. I'm one of the many, many shops participating so go and check me out if you haven't shopped with me on Dawanda before! Did I mention that it's 15% off everything in my store?

Here are some pictures of the goodies that are in my shop and therefore have 15% off!

Some transport gift tags

Some fairy tales gift tags

Gertrude the chicken doorstop

Some colourful cheeky chicken gift tags

And a groovy alien disco Aceo - with free shipping on my aceos!

The sale runs until Sunday 28th June.
