I'm In A Magazine!

I'm in a magazine!

A few weeks ago I received a message asking for some Christmas decorations for a GoodHomes magazine photo shoot (UK publication). Exciting! So I made them up, sent them off and here is the result.


My small white and silver beaded tatted lace snowflake is on the bottom left of p96 in the GoodHomes magazine Dec / Jan 2014 issue, along with some other Etsy sellers.

I was literally dancing round the room when I found it in there.

This issue has just come out so it will be in shops for a while.

On a completely unrelated note: As we're getting closer to Christmas, I've added some new collections to my Folksy shop. There's now a section for £5 items and Under, then I have Under £10, Under £20 and Under £50.

Have a great day,
Heather
