part 1 – i had some teeth taken out and that was ouchy, well not just some teeth, 8 teeth in total and none were wisdom teeth. However i still have my smile and becuase they were back teeth i’m secretly hoping i’ll develop model like cheekbones.
part 2 – Craft2.0
Craft2.0 is possibly the biggest reason, I’ve been busy making Craft2.0 happen, which involves a fair chunk of work.
Beyond that I’ve been working on getting all my SuperVery things together to sell at Craft2.0.
But i’ll be out in force at Craft2.0 this weekend, selling my lovely pendants, magnets and badges
I’ve also out together a whole new line of creations, stitch markers for knitters.
so if you are in Wellington this saturday do pop on by Craft2.0 for what i promise will be a grand day of crafty shopping and inspiration and fun. Also i”ll be running some Craft2.0 only specials which trust me are super special and super amazing
I asked everyone for ideas and name for my new tree pendant
and the one i love most is The Inner Tree
which was dreamed up by Misha from Misha’s vineyard. Personally I’m heading out to my local wine merchant tomorrow and plan to grab some bottles of misha’s wines.
24 lovely people cam up with ideas, and gosh i didn’t even think that 24 people visited my wee spot on the internet so Thank you! I might if i may save those ideas up for future trees (i have 4 sitting in prototyping phase) and if those names get used i’ll contact you to ask your permission and then send you a pendant of your choice from the SuperVery Shop
So i ran the randomiser and the lucky number was 22 which belong to Twirling Betty who also happens to be one of my best beloved blogs to follow. You should go check her out
In sad news i thought’s i’d prototyped my tree enough for strength but i wore it out twice over the weekend and both trees caught on something, and snapped! so it’s back to the drawing board to stregthen the tree before it can go on sale, however i think that since i can now call it my it’s own name The Inner Tree, maybe it will be happy to get stronger.
I am very annoyed today, becuase for the life of me i cannot make my ‘blog this’ settings in flickr work. since i east breath and sleep surfing flickr, you can imagine how this has almost killed my will to live.
I am hoping that when i wake up tomorrow it will all return to normal and work, so i can share tales of bears, and forests with you.
On Saturday i sat in the presence of greatness when The brandford marsalis Quartet played in Wellington as Part of the Festival of the Arts.
Saturday Night was one of 3 things i had paid to see during the festival (tickets in B reserve were $80 = super expensive for someone on my kind of budget) I had really really high expectations. Those got thrown out the window within seconds and by the end of the first song I was entranced, tapping my toe and caught up in a night of magical jazz. From Original works pianist Joey Calderazzo to a bit of Gerwshin, Thelonious Monk and some old school jazz it was an evening for the ear buds and the soul.
I saw and head a group of 4 musicians who had all the building blocks and knowledge of traditional jazz, where it began & what it grew into. with that they had the freedom to play around with anything and have it sound great. And play around they did, sometimes it felt like we’d been given a sneak peak into a jam session rather than a concert and it was all the better for that.
I have a lovely new pendant design, it’s a reverse silhouette tree.
but for the life of me I can’t think of an interesting name for it. Selling online interesting names are a good and important thing thing. It doesn’t have to be complicated simple is totally fine. But reverse silhouette sounds terribly confusing and unmemorable. So I need help.
So here’s the challenge, help me name this pendant. Throw your ideas at me.
What’s in it for you?
How about a SuperVery pendant of your choosing sent to your door.
The name i pick as my favourite will win a free pendant pf their choice and to make it a fair deal I’ll also do a random number draw for everyone who posts a name here in the comments. Yup that’s 2 prizes just for helping sue pick a name for her latest pendant.
you can enter as many times as you like, so if you have multiple ideas make multiple comments.
I’ll run this till Monday the 29th of March.
Update: My current tree names for the existing collection are spring, autumn and twisted, so those are taken.
I love teapots, in all their shapes an sizes. I’ve had a collection of much loved tea pots pass through my life, from traditional round tea pots to tall thermos style pots, vintage pots from the 50s and 7os and lovely handmade tea pots. Often they get passed on the friends or family, left behind [...]
I like design, becuase it’s shiny.
Yes good design is functional and serves a purpose and does all sorts of useful and wonderful things, but if at the end of the day it makes me go mmm shiny that’s the sue mark of approval on design. This probaly illustrates how little i know about design except [...]
I adore elephants, just adore them, possibly not as much as bears, but it’s pretty close.
And right now all i want to do is hop on a plane to Sydney and go visit Mr Shuffles at Taronga Park Zoo, which also happens to be my second favourite zoo I’ve ever been to. Number 1 is [...]
I don’t have a workshop or space where i craft, most of my crafting is done on the sofa in the lounge.
It’s also done in front of the idiot box aka the TV. Now I’m a grand consumer of really bad tv and i admit to being addicted to far too many shows that probably [...]
Yesterday was full of sunshine smiles and a rather enjoyable Craft Fair.
It was a quieter fair than normal, but I wasn’t too bothered as It’s just lovely being at Craft2.0
It also meant that i got to spend a bit more time hanging with friends i only see on fair days, and also i manged to [...]
