Hello!
Well please excuse my absence this week..obviously if you read the last post you will know that My baby has made his way to BIG school and has been doing afternoons all this week and then Monday he does ALL DAY!! EEK!! I have also had my Hubby at home for the week before he starts his new Job so we been making the most of some child free hours every day by hanging out, shopping and drinking coffee and eating cake in Cafes!! So again not much work done again!! But have designed a new product which I think would make a lovely Christmas or birthday gift for somebody to display on their dresser or mantle.
They are Vintage style Building blocks that I have made to display the 4 seasons and some words to inspire appreciation of your surroundings!!
Well lets start with....
HOME SWEET HOME
Take a step back wherever your home should be and admire your surroundings... this is the place you come back to every day, the place that protects you and keeps you warm.

SO all of the above pictures are on one set of blocks ( 3 in a set) I will be pricing them at £9.99 a set.. main reason being that they take a long time to design and make 18 faces of the block. ( Let me know your opinion on the price please..all feedback will be welcome!)

Oh they are fantastic, Annie! A very fair price, too.
Good to read you and your guy have been enjoying some child-free time. It's so refreshing to walk hand in hand as free as years gone by again isn't it :)
Have a great weekend. Xx
Oh my goodness I love them.....I'd love to buy some...when Olly getsa paid....I'll contact you VERY soon!xxxx
Annie, they are lovely! Been thinking of something a little similar myself but you have just shown me how it is done properly! Don't think mine would be anywhere near as lovely as yours. I'm not going to try this now, you're too good!!!!
Think the price is great, I'd be tempted to ask for more as I realise that these are not going to be quick to make as you say there are 6 sides to each, but the thing is, the good old public who will be purchasing them and what they will be prepared to part with. Have a look at this spreadsheet to give you an idea on pricing - http://chris-parry.blogspot.com/2007/12/free-spreadsheet-for-pricing-your-work.html - even if it just makes you think about your time and it's value.
Oops sorry, gone on a bit, take care

They are lovely. I hadn't realised you are at the fair on 7th November. I look forward to meeting you then.
Annie, they are LOVELY! I would love to buy a set from you if possible? Let me know what to do next.
You're so clever!

Preeeety! You are so talented Annie :o)
WOW thanks ladies!! You know how to make a girl feel happy!! Thanks for your lovely feedback..Got some great advice there too! Gonna leave them at the price they are as I can cover my costs and labour and still make a good profit on them so whats the point in raising them eh?
Then we are eall happy!! Any orders just email me on the address shown and specify if you would like any personalised touches or pictures on there ( obviously send me the pic too!!) and then we are away!!
Hugs to all
