Blog Candy.





Oh my!!! I almost forgot...
last year Tim gave me a signed copy of his book 'Compendium of Curiosities' for a special blog candy. At that time my life became a little crazy and i'm afraid it didnt happen... but guess what?? I still have it plus some signed tags and a certain exclusive stamp set that I can also throw in..... I can maybe find a little atc he created yesterday too!!
So if you leave a little comment right here I will draw the lucky winner (plus a couple of runner ups to recieve his signed tags) on Weds the 16th march.....
What are you waiting for??????

A few photo's to share.

behind the scene yesterday with Tim!!



Tim Holtz.

Hi everyone,
Sorry for not posting before- I'm so frustrated that my blackberry would not let me post while I was on the road....
We had a wonderful time at Qvc yesterday, thank you to the all inspiring Tim Holtz for joining me in my shows. It's such a shame we cannot get Tim to come over more but he is in such demand the world over. It would be lovely to have more of our American crafty friends over much more regular ,its always great to see lots of new ideas from over the other side of the pond!. Plus I get a bit of a break too.....
We are so busy at the moment on Qvc and at my store I'm meeting myself coming backwards. I'm just home from London, tonight I'm working on show plans, tomorrow I must check everything is ready for my weekend of workshops at the shop. Monday back to London for the tuesday show, and extra shows on friday (10am) and saturday (1pm)then back home again to prepare for Olympia 17th-20th of March!!!! All good fun but kinda crazy. Looking forward to meeting many of you there, my birthday always falls on Olympia which always makes it so much more special. 21 again of course!!!
I'm told I will be having a pink themed Birthday party which will be lovely. Check out the twisted thread website or stitch and craft show for more details.
Oh and on my Qvc blog there is a competition to win 2 tickets to come along to the show- worth a look at that.
Well thank you all once again for your support yesterday , we had some lovely texts and emails through and my twitter went crazy.
I had best get back to my show plans,
talk soon
love

My shop.

Hi everyone,
I would just like to clarify that my shop is not just closing down! It is currently up for sale either as a going concern or the building. We are continuing to trade ,run workshops and replenish popular stock lines- so If you fancy a visit or booking a private workshop then do contact us as normal.
Yes I am making many changes in my life and am currently working to achieve a easier and less stressful life but this will take time. Meantime it is business as normal....
We do have lots of special offers and discounts in store to reduce our stock levels so now is the time to visit!!!! Believe me if there is any news to the contrary I will post it on here, otherwise it is likely you will still see me popping in my store, running my forthcoming classes and trading as usual.
I will be back on your tv screens next Tuesday 11am and 3pm also on Wednesday at 10am,11am and 5pm for outlet hours. Hope to see you all then
love
Dawn xx
