Craft Juice Tuesday - Mothers Day gift ideas

Well, doesn't the week fly. It's Tuesday, so once again it is time to post my favourite picks from Craft Juice. I thought that I would pick out some items that would be suitable for Mothers Day as it is only a week and a half away. Speaking as a Mum I would be very happy to receive any one of these as a gift (hint hint).
The first item is Pressed Viola Flower pendant/necklace. It is made by Shpangle Jewellery and is available to buy on his website 

My next choice was a handbag, now anyone who knows me will tell you I much prefer jeans and pockets but I really like the look of this. It is made by RetroFaerie and is for sale on Etsy

The card that I have picked is one I would give my Mum. She would absolutely love the wording on it. It has been made by MostlyFlowers and is for sale on Etsy  (I think, the seller is still there but seems to be showing mostly bridal bouquets now.

Finally I have picked a cute pair of earrings. Just the right length for wearing every day and not too showy. I hope you like them too. They have been made by frankie and are for sale at Folksy 

It has to get worse before it gets better

I have not actually got a craft room, I have only got a small corner of the main living area. However I have been steadily outgrowing this space, so today I finally started. First of all I went to the local supermarket and picked up some storage boxes, some practical and some pretty. I cleared out a couple of shelves on my display unit and started to put items into the storage containers in some sort of order. The idea being I can find what I am looking for instead of searching through everything to find what I am looking for right at the bottom. This is what I currently do and it's driving me mad. Anyway stopped for tonight but the job tomorrow is to try and sort my beads into colours. I have plenty of storage for my beads but they are not in any sort of order. My logic being that if I put all the reds together, all the blues etc then I may find what I am looking for quicker. The other good thing that will come out of this is I shall find beads that I had forgotten I had. Anyway while I was doing all this my hubby asks why don't I sit at the table and spread out when I am making jewellery. My answer I can't see the television from there. So the solution - while I am at work tomorrow he shall move the living area around so that I can see the television and sit at the table at the same time. I did say it had to get worse before it got better.
Meanwhile I have been making my new items this week but I have not been able to photograph them yet, getting home to late in the day. I shall do a mass post on Saturday or Sunday with a full weeks "one a day".
Finally, I did tell you that Friday night was movie night, well tomorrow is a first, my youngest and myself are going to a drive in movie to see Grease. I shall let you know what I think.
