Christmas on Etsy!

These are some new colour scheme options for the blankets on my Etsy store, just in time for Christmas so get ordering to have them done in time and ready to wrap. In my mind the colour schemes run left to right and a new scheme starts on each row, however there is nothing to stop you deciding you would like a different combination or even different colours altogether.

Maybe you have an elder relative who would like something different and a bit more special this Christmas in the colours they would love, or a relative who lives away or is at University and would like a handmade touch of home. Whoever this gift may be for it is a lovely keepsake and is a beautiful, thoughtful Christmas present.

I make bed runners for all sizes of beds, and blankets for all ages at varying prices. They are all great value for money given the careful effort and time taken to put into these beautiful woolen items. I can adapt very well to requests and I am quite happy to work with you to get the design and colours you would like to make the item perfect.

If there are any items you would like to see in my Etsy shop and don’t see please feel free to message me on here, comment on this post, or contact me via the shop.

Please give this post a like, me a follow, and feel free to visit my Etsy shop to have a look around, and I hope to hear from you soon!

I’m on YouTube!

I am so very very proud and excited to reveal my first proper YouTube video!!

For this video, I’m simply discussing what my latest project/theme is, how I set up my ‘desk’ before I begin, and just generally the decisions and changes I make as I’m going along. There’s also a few bits of me crocheting, some parts at my own pace, others are slower so that you can see what I’m doing.

Tutorials are something that I’ve considered for stitches, but have not yet pursued, so if you would be interested in seeing those then please let me know!

It was just a try out of YouTube and the videos really, making it was incredibly time consuming but so worth it when it was done!

Please do take a look, and like, and share: https://youtu.be/voy8ffJAWqE

We’ve Had a Makeover!

I am so pleased to share with you a new look that my shop now has, and I can honestly say I absolutely love it. I think it gives a more professional feel whilst still being so homely and inviting.

Please feel free to take a look at my new shop! I’m also hoping to have some Christmas items up soon too, so please make sure you favourite my shop to keep up with that.

Seaside Stripes is Looking for a New Home!

She’s finally up for sale! The seaside stripes blanket is now availble to buy on my etsy store (click the link below!) for £45. As it states on the description of the item, the blanket is brand new, and the cover picture was simply posed to show how big the blanket is visually, and has not actually been used.

I’m really excited to now be able to have it up in my shop as it was an absolute joy to make, it took a lot of time and care but ended up being worth every minute! I just hope it can go to an equally loving home…

Begin at the Beginning…

I am incredibly excited to introduce this website as an introduction to me selling my custom, handmade, crocheted blankets. I am 19 years of age, and I started my crochet hobby a few years ago now, and haven’t really stopped since. It began with my mum buying me a crochet magazine, I tried as hard as I could and I just couldn’t grasp it. After a few months of it being kept buried in a wardrobe I decided to take it back out again, and more out of sheer fustration than anything else, I sat down and just tried over and over again to get it right.

Low and behold, eventually, I managed to grasp it and I finally learnt how to crochet. It started off small, a few granny squares, a runner for the bottom of my nan’s bed, scarves for my ‘newphew and niece’, and grew to baby blankets for friends, and a blanket for myself.

I feel I’ve reached a point now where I am ready to take custom orders, in order to sell my blankets for others to enjoy. I have started a few projects now and have decided to stop simply because I have no room to keep keeping them for myself. And I know some people choose to sell on the blankets they have made, but I find if you’re going to buy something worth upwards of £20, you’d like something a bit more personal. Therefore, I have begun this website with the intention of being able to sell my blankets.

If you’re interested in taking a look then please feel free to use the Custom Blanket Options tab (or click the link). And if you have any questions or requests for a custom order please use the Contact tab (again, or link) to let me know.

These blankets can make for perfect gifts for friends, family members, baby showers, or even pets to line their bed. The options available can be seen in the Custom Blanket Options tab, and after making a few-if not most-of these blankets as gifts for others, I can hand on heart say they are a beautiful gift to give, and the same to receive (or so I’m told!). Please feel free to also take a look at my Facebook page, and if you get the chance, to like it.

I hope to make the rest of my posts in this blog section, about the projects that I am begining, and show you the results from start to finish… I look forward to hearing from you, or even just your follow/like on facebook or on this website for support. Many thanks!
