i'm a marble magnate

So, while Mike studies intently for his java exam, I busy myself making marble magnets... I use scraps of designs/illustration/pictures from magazines, so each set is completely different and unique. I will put some of these in my etsy shop as soon as it is up and running...

Here's an example of marble magnets (not mine tho)

The change is not in my pocket...

You may have noticed that my blog looks a tad different these days... The story is that I am starting my own online craft business at etsy this year, so have decided to make my blog a blow-by-blow account of my adventures! My first step is to get a credit card for online purposes... if only my new-surnamed ID would hurry up and be ready already! Mike has agreed to let me use some space in the spare room to set up a little sewing nook (i'd like to call it a studio, but it will be teeny tiny, so nook suits) I bought myself the best sewing chair, a wheelie stool!



Now I can wheelie myself around upstairs, and Mike and I can have wheelie-chair races! This weekend we plan to redo a desk that his parents have kindly given to me, stripping it down and painting it... firetrucks watch out, you're gonna have some competition...
