Supplies . . . just looking :)

I ordered a couple of supplies on Thursday, not expecting them to arrive in time for the weekend, so I got a lovely surprise when they turned up today. A couple of balls of yarn and some tiny sliver beads . . .

here's a close up of the beads . . .

The white cotton crochet yarn is for one project and the silver thread and beads are for another - both patterns are from my 'how to crochet' books and I'm quite excited about trying them out. Oh, the sense of anticipation that new crafting supplies bring!

Hope you're having a lovely weekend whatever you are up to :) My posts will have to fit in with my slightly longer office working hours over the next few weeks, but I'm hoping there will be as little disruption as possible to crafting activities - well, we couldn't have that could we, hehe! Cheerio an Drasda :D

Hey Alison, lovely to hear from you. My posts this week will no doubt be abut gardening activities now that the market is over. I must keep on top of the weeds before they take over........

I am intrigued by the glittery yarn and beads and can't wait to see what you make with them.

I'm sure you'll find time for your crafting activities. i think when we are short on time, we prioritise more effectively and move crafting to the top of the list, hehe...

Hope you're having a wonderful weekend,

Claire :}

I'll be interested to see what you do with those beads. I've done some crochet with wire and beads for necklaces and thought it was fun once I got the feel of it. :)
