Evening everyone! Had a productive day today - I was running a workshop this morning. It was the first jewellery making workshop that the lady had done & she was delighted and booked two more courses with me.
I am running another one tomorrow on making wire wrapped rings using sterling silver wires, without soldering.
Will be downing tools in a mo and chilling out for the rest of the evening. Hope you all have a good one.
All caught up to here.
re:list
Sorry for your loss linda @wildrosedesigns 
Good grief Sarah @SarahDesignsUk thatās really late cancelling! 
Thatās frustratingly close Roz @OrchardFelts hopefully itās making way for something better
Beautiful Pear & leaf necklace Caroline @CarolineFrodsham really love it 
Plumber finally arrived to fix the leak in the flat above us today! - 2 weeks! 
at least itās sorted nowā¦
Loved & pinned to hereā¦
Good evening yay happy dancing for your sales Deborah and Cynthia 
Sorry the job didnāt work out Roz @OrchardFelts I do believe in fate and everything happens for a reason so thereās a better job out there for you 
Phew Elly @EllyRowbothamPrintmaker that must have been annoying! glad itās sorted
Pauline @PollysWares138, rather than close you can ask admin to re-name your shop for knitwear (which is gorgeous by the way!) I successfully ran my Art and Craft Shop as a combined Jewellery and Art shop for a number of years, I only made the change to two separate shops last year when I switched to metalsmithing, perhaps you could try combining, Brenda does both as well
Thanks for all the job commiserations. I am feeling better about it now I have found another job I can apply for - I tick all the boxes on the person specification - so will try that. The problem is that applications take so long to fill in and I find it hard to remember what and when I have done things, I have done so many different things over the years and stopped keeping an up to date CV many years ago when I went self employed. Didnt think I would find myself applying for jobs again! Oh well, I will set some time aside and get my head down. Am running seriously short of funds so hope I can find something soon.
Evening everyone
Can you add a sale for me please Maxine @MaxPringJewellery
Sorry to hear of your loss Linda @wildrosedesigns sending you hugs
Hope your mum gets her operation soon Sarah @SarahDesignsUK
Congratulations on your sales to Canada Rachel @Verchielbeadsandjewellery
a relist today
Evening all
Hereās another miniature from me. No moulds used so definitely a one of piece of art 
Love the variety of items on this thread. All caught up to here. I was so busy reading your news that I forgot to click the items and had to go back over again 
not so much annoying ā¦more worryingā¦the fizz & crackle sounds the light was making was alarming! we had to turn the lighting circuit offā¦ itās been darkā¦
Evening all.
Mums op has been rescheduled for next Wednesday, I just hope they donāt cancel it again.
I feel terrible this evening, so Iāve not even got a relist. Iāve liked and pinned all to here though, there are some gorgeous makes!
Love your shawl scarf @OhhhWhatAYarn
Have you any lily pad earring to restock? @carolinefrodsham Iāve been meaning to ask for ages!
Those spirals are gorgeous @Beadseedz 
Love that unicorn @AliDufty
That bag is gorgeous @PetraBradleyPrints 
Sorry about the job @OrchardFelts 
Xx
Hi. Another 2 from me tonight.
Love the stitch marker @LemonandGinger, look forward to seeing what others you put into your shop.
It seems Iām not the only southerner moved north. Originally an Essex girl now living near Rochdale so not far from you @konyskiw or @Beadseedz.
Sorry to hear about yours mumās op @SarahDesignsUK. I dropped my hubby off for an op on his hand one morning. He was sat there for ages and no one would give him any info when he asked when they would take him through. About 4 hours later they eventually told him that the anaesthetist had gone home for the day and he couldnāt have it. When they called me to collect him they made me think that something had gone wrong so I drove to the hospital in a panic to find that he hadnāt even the op. Grrr. They rescheduled pretty quickly so hopefully wonāt be too long for your mum.
Glad your mumās op has been rescheduled . I have been meaning to make more lily pad earrings . Will get onto it soon ! Take care Sarah and hope you are feeling better tomorrow x
Snap! Iām from Essex too originally. Born in Ilford and grew up in Leigh on Sea. Left there a very long time ago though.
Good morning yay happy dancing for your sale Valerie
Roz @OrchardFelts when I was job hunting a few years ago I had the same issues been working for the same company for nearly 30 years and done lots of different jobs so rather than start with a CV I started with just a blank document and thought back about all the jobs I had done and wrote a bit about each of them, trying to think about specific projects or pieces of work Iād done whilst in them to use for examples. When I did my CV and job applications then I could just pick the relevant bits out of the list to match whichever job I was applying for, good luck with your application
Hope you feel better today Sarah @SarahDesignsUK and fingers crossed for your mums op going ahead next week.
Thanks Max @MaxPringJewellery - I have been trying to do something similar. I find a lot of forms ask for, for example, employment history with any gaps fully explained and asking for exact start and finish dates (not content with year or even month and year but want day month year!!) I can barely remember what day it is today let alone what day I started a job 25 years ago especially as many of the jobs overlapped! And as for qualifications, really cant remember what, when or where i got most of those - I have got a certificate folder somewhere but it is packed away in a box of āthings Iāll never needā in storage!
I have got a full day to myself today with no distractions, at least until 4:30 when my daughter gets home, so I am going to put it to good use and try and get lots done.
Some gorgeous items on the thread as usual. Heres another new scarf - I love this one, despite loving to work with bright colours sometimes the neutral ones draw me in
Good morning.
Hugs to those that are under the weather and those that are in need of a hug.
Quick dash in as Iām going into town with my son to get some bits and pieces for his house. Got the hound to walk first that is if I can get her out of bed.
Another infinity scarf

Good morning all whoops I just got told off by Folksy for doing 3 post in here in a row I have a new listing this morning another pair of gloves that I had forgotten to list 
I hope you feel a bit better today Sarah @SarahDesignsUK and that your Mums op goes without a hitch next week x
Sorry to hear about the job Roz @OrchardFelts I am sure something better will be just around the corner for you.
