Trick or Treat Tote Buckets

 

I coudn't resist these gorgeous fabrics from the Trick or Treat Doodlebug Designs collection by Riley Blake. I planned on making a sugar plum witch dolly with them, but decided on making some trick or treat tote buckets instead.

 

I have two Trick or Treat tote buckets left which are for sale on my Little Sugar Plums facebook page. These cute totes are 100% cotton and fully lined. They are incredibly versatile and can be used for many years. Not just for Trick or Treating - how about taking them to the cinema to hold some spooky treats when checking out new Frankenweenie film, or giving as a gift at a Halloween party. The trick or treat totes are approximately 10cm x 21cm excluding handle and are priced at £12 each or 2 for £20. + P&P.

 

I am getting very worried about the stall i'm holding at the christmas craft fair.  I only have 6 dolls made and some tote bags and brooches, and I'm really up against the clock.  I also have 5 custom orders to do aswell as working full time... there aren't enough hours in the day! :-(

Children's brooches

Well I have been a busy bee!  With only 12 weeks until the christmas craft fair, I spent all weekend making little tote bags, and this afternoon I've been making some little brooches.  Here's a sneeky peek....

Strawberry brooch

 

 

I've made some strawberries, owls, cats and frogs so far.   Ohhh, and check out my little tags I've made to display them on!  I'm really pleased with how they turned out.

 

I have a busy few weeks ahead of me and am trying to get as organised  as possible.  I know it's early but I have some paper bags all made up with my logo on and I have added a little leaflet and business card to each bag which will save hassle on the day.

 

 

 

They will also have "Find us on Facebook" printed on the bottom, although I am still waiting for the stamp to arrive in the post.

 

I am so excited to be doing my first fair (can you tell?).

 

Right, I'm off to make a few more brooches while the hubby gets the kids reasdy for bed and then I shall be having a well deserved restful evening.  I have some X factor to catch up on!
