Welcome to No Buy July, where we help each other use up supplies we have. I have a room full, cupboards, drawers etc and really do not need more. Keep saying going to declutter and downsize my studio but does not happen,

Always a great idea to have that clear out of supplies that have been tagged āIāll keep that just in caseā. Iāve just done two at āDeclutter Fairsā so, for the time being, my stash is once again manageable.
Love the idea of ādeclutter fairsā. Great idea!

I have recently given away a sizzix electric machine, which I did not use and a large manual fabric cutter which I do not use any more. But I have just ordered some journal stuff from @Craftyali1 because I want to have something to do other than quilting, so that was two out, one in.

Wellā¦thatās trust for youā¦
No me neither lol 
but I am going to bloominā well try this month as my sewing room is about to collapse on top of the dining room 
Oh I think so yesā¦in fact if it was myself I would fully expect I am still allowed one more treat to make it equal but I am known for breakƬng the rules
I did well last month with only buying buttons from a fellow folksy seller and they were needed.
I am not sure about this month as my fairs are increasing so I am probably going to be buying lining fabric and no doubt that will extend to other things so that I get free postageā:rofl: itās also my birthday this month so there may be some excuses made there too!
I shall sit and watch at the sidelines as you all fall onto the naughty step this monthš¤£

Bad start for me. Got a private order for a yellow āthingā. Made something else yellow yesterday and realised I am low on yellow. soā¦had to order some yelllow glass, several different typesā¦ and silly to only get just yellow soā¦
I spent today more than double the amount in materials than I have taken in orders here on Folksy in last two months.

Iāve been paid a big deposit from a friend for two quilts I am making for her, I wonāt need to buy wadding or backing fabric this month, as she doesnāt need them urgently, I think they are going to be Christmas gifts. Thatās me not buying anything more this month.

@Thecraftycurioshop made me fall onto the naughty step as she listed some buttons that I couldnāt resist. They were helping a folksy seller and they most definitely will get used.
I also have to confess to going to āThe Cowslip Craft Fairā near Launceston, Cornwall which was on my Birthday and I did buy some fabric. I also saw a fellow folksy seller there too @DeborahJonesJewellery and its nice to put a face to the shop seller in real life and say helloš

My niece Rachel used to help out there. I designed and made a cowslip suncatcher for them . Sadly somebody nicked it which was really mean.
I visit Launceston as often as I can as my eldest sister lives there. Last there in May when we caravanned near Woolacombe.
