well we are coming up to Christmas
Today I have sorted out my Etsy shop ..the only things listed in it now are items instock
this week I will be adding more OOAK amd stock items
for the run up to Christmas i will be doing Free shipping again ..but im afraid in the New Year I shall habe to either increase my prices or add postal charges for international customers
US charges have increased and international ..and of course ever increasing Etsy Fees
so I will have to keep inline
the New Year i really want to be doing more OOAK peices ..boots ,dolls , bears and miniatures ,I am really missing being so creative and I hope to be doing some miniature work along sode Paul 
Well we are settling into a routine
lockdown is blurring from one day to another , we are walking a lot , but the last couple of days weather has been so bad we havent walked but we have got a lot done on our respective projects
Pauls getting to grips with the laythe and at last Ive made the wig and outfit fr a Mina that Ive always wanted to .. only problem is i had to learn to crochet before I could make it lol
shes perfect ... Im gutted tho , the amazing eyes , I have in her , I cant get anymore , the seller has gone off Etsy
this little girl is OOAK and she will be available in my Etsy store in a few days ♥

i felt a little stressed coming up to lockdown ..I hate the feeling of not knowing , I had dashed to Halesowen to see my daughter ..Id seen my son the weekend before ..checked Mom and Dad are ok , driving home my tensions started to ease ..
We had to get groceries Monday and you know ...everything was fine ..no paic buying , a few more people than i was expecting , but nothing like the news were reporting
...my birthday meal was cancelled ,
