My first craft fair!

Well I finally did it, I took the courage to do a stall at a craft fair, along with my friend Laura who sells fantastically beautiful jewellery under the cute name Daleybird, she is my sister company so you'll often find us in tandem! Well I thought you might like to see some pics of the craft fair!!!

Craft fair and bird executions!

Well....its been ages since I have put a post here, infact it took two things to remind me I actually had a blog, the first was going to see Julie and Julia at the cinema (fantastic!) and the second was my friend and co-crafter starting a blog of her own!!!

So news....well apart from Bumble and Cosmos out competing each other on trying to make birds extinct (Cosmos has a pigeon this morning, Bumble a little brown bird I couldnt identify!) I am madly preparing for my first craft fair table-ARGGGGHHHHH! so much to do, so little time!

Its on 24th October and is called Made by Hand and is at Coningsby in Lincolnshire, wish me luck and come along if you local!

Love Sarah, Bumble and Cosmos x

Is your cat plotting to kill you?

My friend Laura sent me this link. Apparently there is a 91% chance my cats are trying to kill me. I thought they just liked wool and needles to help with the crafts!!!

Stuffing Sundays!

Yesterday, a huge delivery of stuffing arrived for my door stops and little animals and people for my baby mobiles! My goodness, I think I overestimated how much stuffing I would need. Harry was quite alarmed at how it had engulfed his bed!!! Tommorrow will be full of putting it in the attic (the house should be well insulated) and stuffing all the poor door stops that had been waiting to be inflated for a while! They should be listed very soon on http://www.bumblecosmos.etsy.com/ and http://www.folksy.com/shops/bumblecosmos

Today I have had a lovely day off crafting and instead...........visited some lovely crafty and interior shops with my friend! Back to the needle and thread tommorrow and some garden time for Bumble and Cosmos who are dying to dig up my newly emerged bulbs!! Cosmos is also going through a phase of playing football with the poor tatties that are trying to chit in my spare room!!! Will try and get a piccie! For now, here is a photo of him helping to write this blog!

First day of blogging

So here goes....welcome to Bumble and Cosmos, not only I am new to making and selling crafts, blogging is a whole new concept to me! Its made even harder when you have a Bumble shaped kitten sitting on your knee and a Harry shaped cat trying to sit on the computer keys!

Anyhow...hurrah! My first blog has hopefully worked and hopefully you found it. This blog will track the progress of Bumble and Cosmos, my online craft business (currently only weeks old!). Why is it called Bumble and Cosmos, its named after two little kittens I rescued. Bumble is at the front of the photo and Cosmos at the back aged three weeks! I will post new photos all the time along with my craft progress!!! They are now 20 weeks so look out for new photos soon!

Right now, I have to go fill three russian dolls and one owl door stop with stuffing!!!

Will be back soon,

Love Sarah, Bumble and Cosmos x
