    I wish I had more time to devote to my gardening and hobbies. I am hoping one day to support myself with the two of them, a nursery/gift shop type of thing.
    What kind of things do you make Glendann?

    Sharon I am impressed!! Your angel pins are lovely. :-D
    I used to make pins and other small pieces of jewellery too but can no longer find a supplier for blanks, stones and fixings over here. Where do you get your supplies from as I really would love to start it up again?

    Frank, the parts are individual, which I order from a wholesaler, then I glue them together with E6000 glue.
    Eileen, I sent you a PM
    Glendann, I would love to make candles, I used to when I was a hippie, LOL. Maybe one day I will have the time to get back into it. I hope you are doing well since your surgery.

    I am doing ok now .My surgery was in 2003 .I was over doing work. I worked over 40 hrs.a week as Security Clerk and 40 to 50 hours a week in my Candles .I had a huge business just can't return to it .I do love the candles and could easily slip back into the same rut again.
