Hi Everyone
Hope you are all happy and well .. .. and if not I hope that you will be soon.
I bet you thought I had disappeared off the face of the earth .. .. but no .. .. just majorly busy .. .. and from my orders and do lists it looks like it will be like this through until mid-October at least.
Hence no blog posts and no blog visiting. The computer has been on only for emails and printing sessions :-(
But having said that a few weeks ago I took a bit of time out and had a "business development meeting" with myself to review where I was going with my wedding work and what new products I wanted to add to my range ready for the next wedding fayre in October.
One of my many lists shows what I want to do in the future and I decided to allocate this Bank Holiday weekend to pursuing something off the list. So I have been collecting my goodies together to make some of these .. .. ..
I don't know if they will go down well or not .. .. I will be testing the water to see come October.
I started making them today and all I know is I love making them so much. These are just a handful of what I have made so far. There are another 20 or so lined up in a variety of colours and designs. They are filled with five sugar coated chocolate dragees .. .. and I haven't eaten even one of them! What a lovely shiny halo I have (not) LOL!!
Enjoy your Bank Holiday weekend everyone. I hope you get to see a bit of sunshine.
My hubby is hoping for rain as he has put weed and feed on the lawns today!! Personally I think he should just water it in and leave us with nice weather!!
Have a good one.
Love

Hi Jules,
Those favours are absolutely gorgeous, you are so creative ! I'm pretty sure they will be very popular with your happy couples (which unfortunately for us means you will be even busier lol)

They are beautiful, i always thought dragees had nuts in them so i keep them as keepsakes in the draw under my bed, now i am thinking i wonder if they are chocolate what a waste if they are! Its been pouring down all day here, but still haven't crafted as went out with my daughter hope you have a lovely weekend and yes i have missed you this week x
I'm glad to hear your business is going so well, Jules! Your wedding favours are just gorgeous, I can see why you love making them. I'm sure they'll be a big hit. Then you'll be even busier! Hope you manage to get a bit of crafty time for yourself too, though!

Hi Jules, seeing these brings back memories of when I made 120 in lemon and white colours for my own wedding 21 years ago! Yours are gorgeous, I love the way you have mixed the colours.
It sounds like you are very busy, I hope you find time to relax a little over the weekend too.

Hi Jules, I was really pleased to read that headline ... it's good to know you're still here :) And even better to know that despite the recession you are going great guns. Love the little favours - pretty colour selection and I like the sparkly embellishments popping out the top - they are sure to be a winner. Hope you get to take a bit more time out soon, but this time for yourself :)) Hugs, Elizabeth xx

I have to say I didn't realise you hadn't posted for a while as I've been a bit occupied too. My niece from New Zealand was visiting and I've been playing catch up ever since.I think these little favour whatsits (?) will go down a treat - no pun intended. They are so pretty.
