Storage for the 'Artful Life ' ;-)
;-)
This is a 'Store 'n Spin' which has been one of my fave pieces of storage which I bought a couple of years ago...loads of pockets inside and out and as the name suggests, it spins around easily.
I wouldn't be without this which I bought last year... a must!
And I have not even started on the tins!

Filled with ribbons..for the mo!...
Which seem to sit quite nicely underneath my work table!!
Finally... Thank you for all of your ideas for my giveaway, here:

Hats ...Paper bags... Brains...and a Giveaway ;-)
Hesta, who had a table right next to me at the November V&H FAIR!
She is such fun and so talented !
Her hats are to die for..not to mention all of her other gorgeous items.
Here's her website:
We had a quick look around...
Mr Snippets got some new Spring outfit ideas ;-)
I was wondering what to do with those lovely Amy Butler cards, purchased on Sat ; I was trying to think of something to make, whereby the whole design could still be seen.
So...
I took a paper bag (the sort that I use for making paper bag albums)...
Folded it in half and stuck it to itself.
Stuck that to some black card so that the top of the bag opened.
And then I proceeded to stick those lovely Amy Butler cards on to the front part of the bag.
At first, I thought..ah receipts..everyone needs a safe place for those!
And then ,when I showed Mr S...he suggested various other ideas.
So..out with the sizzix letters...and receipts became seeds...
And once the seed was sown...
...there was no stopping me!!
Not forgetting...;-)
