I’ve had a pretty frustrating morning on the felting front, two failed attempts at a new style bracelet and only one relatively successful result. My plan had been to get a lot of smaller jewellery items felted this weekend as I need to think of splitting my stock for both the Christmas Village at Mount Juliet and the Duckett’s Grove Christmas Fair next week. I’m actually going to call it a day and start a massive tidy up instead. While I totally suck in the household department (with the possible exception of cooking in fact!) I so need to get sorted in advance of Christmas, once next weekend arrives it’s outside events right up until the night of 24th. Starting afresh on Monday morning with a clean and tidy house should help get the creative juices flowing!
Thanks for sharing this Nicola. When I have those times when my felt just does not work out, I wonder what is wrong with me. It is nice to know that it happens to other felters who I admire.
Nicola……I sure hope you have a lot of wine stocked up to relieve the stress. You have a lot on your plate to get done. Some times like this though…the creative juices really come to fruition. Have fun, enjoy this and keep us all posted when you can.

I know just how you feel Nicola — been there too. I try to go to places that inspire me when i feel this way — helps me get creative again.
Well, all that I can say is that I’m in big trouble if one needs a clean and tidy house to get the creative juices flowing! Wonder what I’ll end up with…Scary to think about, isn’t it? 😉
Big hugs,
Dawn
