Holiday discount code

Holiday time!!!!  Eeeeek, how exciting.  I go away tomorrow - I packed earlier in the week.  What a stupid idea, I will obviously have to repack tonight to remember whats in there and add the stuff I need (did knickers go in?  Did I pop in some socks?).  I never generally try and get ahead with the packing - I now realise why.  It's like when you leave the house and have to go back 3 times to make sure you turned off the burny things.

Now, because I run my little web site shop all on my tod, it does mean the poor thing is going to be left unmanned for a couple of weeks.  The dogs are good, but not that good!  And poor Catherine has her hands full with Hairy Kid sitting - so to dump a web site on her would just be cruel. You can of course still browse and order - but nothing will be picked and posted until my return. As this is obviously a pain, I am offering a little discount, to take the sting out of the wait.

Everyone placing an order whilst I am jet setting again, will receive a 10% discount.  All you need to do to get your discount is enter the code when you are checking out.  It will ask you for your voucher - so pop it in there.  The code you need to order is:
HOLS4

As soon as I return I will be packing like a nutter, so will get the orders out asap.

In the meantime, I will try and post some photo's and stuff from our adventures, and will be back crafting very soon indeed.

Take care xxx

Last one....a little bit more dipping into the melt pot

And finally, dipping again.  This time I have used a solid shape, I have used one of my TwiddleBitz.  The pot was mainly clear UTEE, with some red Jewel Enamel in there as well.  Using tweezers, dip your shape into the pot, allow the excess to drip off.  If you want to add texture, simply stamp whilst your UTEE is still wet.  Great for changing all your embellishments.  Try paper flowers, metal embellishments, shrink plastic, skeleton leaves....experiment.

Again, when the UTEE cooled, I added a little gilding wax to one of the birds - look at the sheen.
