Rearranging things........

Hi All
Thanks for dropping by.
Last week end saw us do our back to back markets.
Below is our market at Ipswich.
This is a handmade market with a lot of great stalls.
It is a big day for us though but worth it.


Sunday sees us doing Toowoomba Queens Park.
I love the vibe of this market, as you can see by the photo below I have different stuff for this market.....I have a lot more yarn...


On Thursday I decided to rearrange The Old Dairy.
I have a lot of yarn now and needed some new shelving to store it all on.
Below is a before shot.


The shelving is from Aldi and I love it...makes it so much
easier to see what there is.


The soaps and creams are still on the same bench.




A close up of the shelving display....


The 2nd room got things rearranged as well.



I love the table and chair under the window in this room, a nice spot for tea and cake.


 Well that all from here, I am going away for a few days to visit my daughter.

Enjoy your week

Yarn yarn and more yarn......

Last time I was on this blog it was still Winter, well  now  Spring is well and truly here...

Some time ago I shared that I was stocking a new yarn called 
Trap Art.....


This is a t shirt yarn and great for baskets and rugs.....I am now doing the Toowoomba Queens Park markets and it has been a real hit there..Do you use it? What have you made ?



I have also become a supplier of Darn Good Yarn.
This yarn is made from recycled saris from woman in India...


There is so many different yarns from Banana fibre, silk and chiffon to name a few.


We have been making every thing from Spring scarves to handbags to baskets.


I am even using it in my weaving.


Friday craft is a real time of stopping and enjoying other women's company and learning new skills.
I know this is my favourite day of the week.


Saturday saw me host a group of ladies from Toowoomba that came down for 
Coffee & Cake


I know I enjoyed having them and I am pretty sure they enjoyed all that is on offer here.
From feeding the sheep to sitting and enjoying a coffee.


This Sunday I am running a 
Soap making demonstration....
Things are busy here at 
The Old Dairy....

Have a great week and keep crafting.
