Kitchen changeover and not much crafting

We have lost our minds and decided to replace the kitchen, last done in about 1998 and now looking very sorry for itself. Started with the first stage electrics on Tuesday followed by the skimming of the ceiling on Thursday, to get rid of the Artex. This week Lee will be doing washes to seal and top coats. Am beginning to wonder why we started this and still to select and have the units fitted. I know will look good when done but the upheaval is stressing me out. Love my kitchen organised.

Hence not a lot of crafting being done as have to make sure the worker is happy, lol. Did manage to make some cuff bracelets, another personalised scissor holder, for my website some plain scissor holders and pin cushions.






Finally a pink flower organza pin, plan to use at the Women Only Connected meetings and my events. May make some more to sell as do love these with the sparkly centres.


Feel I am drifting a bit atm and need to get back on track perhaps a visit to the Packhouse may inspire me to start working again.

Take a look at the other blogs on Lucy Blossom Crafts and Handmade Monday

  1. Dropping by from Handmade Monday and really like the words on your wrist bands. Good luck with the kitchen work, I've been there many times over and it's no fun while it's happening but always worth it in the end. Have a great week - Chris :D

  6. Sounds like your kitchen is a work-in-progress. We always had plans to redo the kitchen here (from 1988), but I'll only be living here a short while now so I'll wait for my next kitchen...Beautiful lace!
