Craft Central - it's brill !

[Whizzz]

I had totally forgotten about the garden centre about 10 mins down the road from me had a Craft Central - and when I went today its even bigger than it was & now has beady jewelery bits! Loads of bargains !

I only went for some reindeer coloured funky foam (which they didn't have in single sheets- Grrr) and ended up with a pile of bead stuff !

i'm sure there's one of these in enfield, may have a little visit.

I've given up on craft shops. There's two here, one in The Range which is generally great, and one funny little back street shed place. (There's also a HobbyCraft but it's other side of Newport and quite a small hobbycraft, plus I find their stuff abit bland). Shed Shop seems to make it's living from selling sissix cut outs. ?? ajnd the odd sheet of paper (might be why they're in a shed?) and The Range had absolutely nothing I required for Secret Stocking thingame, £4 for a pack of eyelets! So back to the internet for me! Besides, even with P&P, saved £8 on The Range coz could get smaller packages.

If anyone wants me to get anything postable - I am happy to visit again as often as poss

Got some great paper & card today from Paper Mill Shop - buy one get one free £1.49 for 10 sheets of marbled A4 corregated card + a hefty pack of A5 lovely grey metalic-ish sparkly paper!

300 hundred eyelets for less than £8 and free P&P
here you go

Noooooooo!! how did those stamps get in my basket?

Ha! ha! ha! ha!

i hope you know i'll blame you when dh see's the package well i did get to get a medalian stamp that i've been after and a couple of beach stams i saw on C&C, much cheaper at "jill's"
