Hello. Nice to see you, to see you nice. The bags are finished, and they look fab. They are strong, good for carrying spuds, and books, and anything heavy. We will be having a stall to raise money for our rescue cats at our village fete next month, so these will be for sale.
Sometimes the kid in me just can't resist playing. I wondered what this soft twist plant ties was about when I saw it in Poundland, so I bought one thinking I could do something crafty with it. Ooooh look, you can twist it into any shape you like and it stays there. It's got wire running through the centre of it. I think I will have fun with this, could be a new trend. Pity it only comes in green, it would be great if they made it in several colours.
My lunch yesterday, salad with a portion of quiche, and a wedge of French brie cheese. If you are wondering why I am eating a lot of beetroot, it's because I found a pack at 10p and I already had some opened in the fridge. Well I had to have it at that price, didn't I. Besides beetroot is good for me.

Hi Tessa. I don't make quiche. I don't use my oven at all, due to the cost of the gas. I don't bake, roast, or make bread. Tesco quiche is £1, Aldi quiche is £1.19. I don't buy it on a regular basis, just as and when I fancy it.
DeleteNo such thing as too much beetroot.
ReplyDeletethey will sell well at the fete. I too love beetroot.
ReplyDeleteyes, you are right.....they do look fab. !
ReplyDeleteLove those bags! Can't decide on a favourite. Xxxxx
ReplyDeletePretty bags. You are creative!
ReplyDeleteReally loved the cheerful bags especially the top left one. Hope they all sell. Kristel
ReplyDeleteBeetroot was my pregnancy craving, just watch out for the colourful side effects lol
ReplyDeleteX
Love the bags.
ReplyDeleteYou could cover that wire in tubes of fabric - like bendy piping. There! I'm sure that will help your creativity on the way xx
ReplyDeleteGood idea to cover it. I thought about painting it, but it would probably crack.
Deletegreat bags!! You make each one a work of at,, how is the landscape coming if you don't mind me asking,, thats was a great meal,, our kind of meal! You're making such a great job of your summer house, looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHi. I haven't looked at the landscape for over a week. I am waiting to feel inspired.
DeleteLOVE the bags...practical and cheerful.
ReplyDeleteYou inspired me to make some myself.. I used a remanent of blackout curtain (very strong and lined). It was really bright and the bags turned out brilliantly.... if I don't say so myself!! Thanks for sharing. Cheers
I nearly bought some of that twisty tie stuff, then I remembered all the rolls and rolls of string I've got to use up so I thought better of it. I can't wait to see what you decide to do with it :-)
ReplyDeleteI like those bags you made.
ReplyDeleteHi.Your bags look lovely and will be a bright beacon calling people to buy things from you to support a very good cause.Love beets and have found baking them as you would a potato makes them very easy to peel -just be rubbing them with your fingers-after cooling down somewhat.My friend taught me that.Your food look very tasty.Yes, it would be a good thing if the green twisty ties came in different colours for other crafty projects.We finally had a good rain,gardens were drenched and the plants are looking happy again.Bye for now,D.
