Craft Juice Tuesday

WOW,what a week it's been. We've had febrile convulsions,fevers,viral infections and hospital admittances all since my last blog post. Those of you that are following me on Twitter will know all about the ups and downs.
To be able to sit and write this post and admire all the lovelies over at www.craftjuice.com has been a very welcome distraction!

There is no particular theme this week just random selection of gorgeous handmade items.

My Top 3 - Tuesday 1st June 2010

This choice needs very little explanation as any woman will know. Feeling a bit stressed? A bit of bling will always cheer me up!!!

It's a shame I didn't discover this a lot sooner. All the trips we've made to casualty recently this Crayon Roll would have really come in handy!

I knew as soon as I saw this that I would have to include it in my blog. This bracelet is called 'Sunshine' and as the name suggests,who wouldn't feel a warm cheery feeling wearing it. Just what I need after the week I've had!

Craft Juice Tuesday

Good Morning all,hope you enjoyed the fabulous weather yesterday.

My Craft Juice Tuesday offering this week is based on items that I know the kids would adore. I'm sure once you've seen my top 3 picks you'll understand why I've picked them...they're simply adorable.

My Top 3 - Tuesday 25th May 2010

These daisy chain bracelets instantly take me back to my childhood and afternoons spent picking daisies from the local park. My daughter would love these bracelets and I could just see her and her friends using them as a symbol of their secret society!

I remember my Grandma making me a lavender peg doll when I was younger and haven't seen any since. I would love my little girl to see this cute little scented doll every time she opened her draw,how uplifting.

All I can say is-"how cute?" what cot would be complete without this set of gorgeous bear bunting?!

Craft Juice Tuesday

WOW,how quick did Tuesday come around again?! As the kids were off school for the Easter holidays I thought I would take the kids off to the countryside for the last week and what a well needed rest I got. So now I'm feeling totally rejuvenated I bring you this weeks Craft Juice Tuesday . There is no particular theme this week,just my favourite 3 items.

My Top 3 - Tuesday 20th April 2010

These earrings are so me it's almost as if the designer had me in mind!! I love the colour and style and will be heading on over to the designers shop.

How lovely are these? I think this charm set is really pretty and would work really well as a keyring and handbag charm.

And lastly but by no means least is this stunning bracelet. The colours and materials work extremely well together and I'm really into blue at the moment too.

So that's it for this weeks Craft Juice Tuesday. If you would like to see these items and more then head on over to www.craftjuice.com

Craft Juice Tuesday

The past week or so we have had some lovely,bright and sunny days. This weather has encouraged me to get out and sort the flower beds out. With this in mind,my Craft Juice blog this week is centred around flowers. There were some fantastic items(as always) to choose from but here are my choices this week.

My Top 3 - Tuesday 13th April 2010

At first glance I thought these hairpins were made using real flowers. It was only after reading the item description that I realised that were fabric petals! These hairpins are gorgeous,definitely something I would treat myself to!

Anyone who knows me knows that I am never without my notebook and pen. Sometimes I find the covers very boring and impersonal. This notebook cover has such a cute little feel about it that I think I definitely would want to get it out and write a lot more.

Wow,what fabulous earrings. These would be a welcome addition to any jewellery box and set of my new dress perfectly.

Craft Juice Tuesday

This week I really had trouble deciding on just 3 items to blog about. There are so many fantastic items handmade by wonderful artists on Craft Juice that it really was hard. As holiday season is fast approaching and nothing reminds me more of a nice sandy beach,beautiful waters and a clear blue sky than a nice bright,fresh blue colour,this weeks theme is... Beautiful in Blue!!

My Top 3 - Tuesday 6th April 2010

Now I am very much a bracelet person and often I see beads that are simply gorgeous and I know would make me a fantastic bracelet. I absolutely love these beads,they are fresh,clean and very pretty. I think anyone wearing these would be thrilled.

This bag is the perfect size to fit a towel,costume,book and a few other nik naks in to take with you to spend an afternoon lazing on the beach. As it is made from oil cloth,should you get it dirty you can just give it a quick wipe and it will be as good as new!

Once you've managed to get a good spot on the beach what better way to unwind than with a book. And should the local hunk catch your eye,there's no need to lose your page. This stunning bookmark will keep your page for you while you check out the 'scenery'!!

Ok,so now I guess it's back to reality with a very hard bump. Oh,well not long to go now and I should soon be on that beautiful beach.

Off I go to wrap up some presents for my Dad's birthday today.

Craft Juice Tuesday

Hi all and welcome again to my Craft Juice Tuesday

This weeks selection all have a Spring theme. My top 3 have been chosen because I feel that they have a 'Springy' feel to them.

So here they are......

My Top 3 - Tuesday 30th March 2010

Now the days are that bit brighter I find that my daughter and I are wearing much more pink. As she is of a certain age she is starting to pick her own clothes and accessories,as soon as she saw these she practically begged me to buy them so they have to go in my top 3 this week!

I have recently done something out of the norm and gone out shopping and bought items for myself!!!(as opposed to the kids,hubby and house). One of my new purchases was a lovely aqua coloured bag which I think this charm would suit perfectly.

And last but by no means least these beads are the definition of spring-time. They are fresh and bursting with colour and life. I think these would make a fantastic bracelet or necklace.

So there you have it,my 3 picks from Craft Juice this week.

Yes,its time for Craft Juice Tuesday again.

This week is quite an eclectic mix of items,all of with I think are fantastic. It is extremely difficult to pick only three items each week but if you want to see all the other items available just go to www.craftjuice.com

My Top 3 - Tuesday 16th March 2010

I simply adore this mobile. It would fit perfectly in my 1 year olds room,I find it to have quite a relaxing feel about it. Maybe it's the thought of being on a boat somewhere sailing the ocean!!!

This is something I would have loved to have received after having my children. I love the use of the different ribbons and the colours work really well together.

Now that the weather is getting a bit better and the sun is coming out,this suncatcher would look absolutely fantastic hanging in our kitchen window. It reminds me of a cottage we stayed at in the countryside a few years ago.

Well that's my top 3 for this week.

As this coming Sunday is Mothering Sunday,I thought I would be fitting to base this weeks Top 3 picks on suitable gifts that I would be more than happy to give or receive.

My Top 3 - Tuesday 9th March 2010

I love this brooch. I really like the colours and beads used to make this and I would definetley be happy to receive this on Mothers Day.

This card just jumped off the page at me!! I adore the colours and style of this card and would be proud to present this to my mum on Mothers Day

There is one lady that I can never forget on Mother's Day and that is my dear Grandmother.

She has been there for me for as long as I can remeber and has treated me more like a daughter than granchild. I know she would love this bracelet. The beads used and the colour of the shell is absolutely gorgeous - just like her!
