Large picspam below; may not be suitable for dial-up; adequately illustrates what I have been rambling on about for ages.
Some of the stitch markers I have been making. They're by no means finished yet, but I wanted to share purely because some of the beads are sooooo pretty.
These are kind of an experiment, but kind of not. Upshot is that I like the bottom version better than the top. I thought, "You can crochet beads, so why not sequins?" And here we are.
These are experiments, again, but they're (mostly) quick to make. Not sure about the two crocheted ones, but definitely doing more of the wire and seed bead ones (got a red one and a blue one lined up next).
These are not always my first choice in colours, but it's fun to mess about and see what happens.

That blanket that I made. I think I will make these to sell but, unless I have massive amounts of spare time, I'm probably going to do it on a commission basis only. ANYWAY. Am SO. DAMN. PROUD of this.
Also size is around 3 feet by five and a half (I actually haven't measured it lengthways, but it goes from my head to toes easily and I'm 5"4'), which will fit nicely over a single size bed. BUT I can make them bigger or smaller, depending on what you want!
One day, I will actually get off my fat arse and write a proper commission post. ONE DAY! *shakes tiny fists*
Future nephew stuff! Tiny mittens and bootees! A weeny hat that looks like a frog! (to me, anyway. Your mileage may vary).
Despite my general feelings about babies and children, this has totally given me the bug to make baby things to sell (and, as I understand it, baby stuff will nearly always sell, because people will keep having them!)
And finally, this is not crocheted, but it related:
This yarn may look lovely and soft and fluffy (and it is!) but it is the devil to crochet. I...have absolutely no idea what to do with it. Ideas welcome!

If you want to ask about any of these things, or whatnot, shoot us a line and we can natter about it c:
And, as usual, comments, crits, or even "ooh shiny!" are welcome :D
Oh also, I might add, I know the majority of the jewellery is unfinished. Trust me, if you said, "I wanna buy that!", I'd make sure you got it in finished condition.
