I've let things slide

It's been a while since i last blogged (confession time)!

So apologies to all those lovely people that have followed me for some time now. 

Summer has been and gone!  I have drunk lots of tea, painted fences, made jam, crocheted some little doiley things, continued with teaching myself to play the piano, painted a few pics, listed some new items, registered myself for freelance work, been to airport to wave off my brother who has gone to australia, bet on some horses on my lovely friend martinas hen do in bath.  Amongst ALL of that i have been working (the real day job!)





Just a reminder of where you can find me these days;

• Etsy
• Folksy
• Facebook
• Website
• Zazzle

Giveaways

I would like to start a new feature, sponsored giveaways. 
If anyone would like to donate a small item once a week for my featured giveaway, i will promote you and feature you on my blog. 

There are so many fabulous artists, creatives out there and most of us get swallowed up in this big creative online hole never to be seen again.  Believe me, i know!  I have been promoting my work now for over two years....it takes time and lots of patience. 

I will link to your site, blog, shop and promote you as best as i possibly can. 

All YOU have to do is supply and send the item you wish to give away.  Send me a link to your pages.  And thats it.....interested???

How do people do it?

I am trying to promote, stock and update my shops.  Update my blog on a regular basis.  Tweet like no ones ever tweeted before.  Facebook till i'm blue in the face.  Paint, create, promote, promote, promote...oh and trying to sell!  Plus working the day job and keeping house. 

How is this possible???

and i'm struggling to keep it all together.  Ideally, i would like a website that could encompass all of this information for me.  Somewhere to call my online home.  A place where i can just go to a couple of times a day and update. 

It's a struggle out there :)
