Check-In Post November 27th 2023

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


Today's Question: No question today.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

So, after re-establishing the original configuration of the flat (save for the bath... and the kitchen where all that stuff from the bath went) I actually felt inspired to do some crafting. If for no other reason than to save the last shreds of my sanity.
I filled some little plastic bottles with glitter powder and the beads of a broken necklace, creating something akin a snow globe effect, and decorated them with translucent stickers. They look really great.

Also, I recycled eighteen ribbon rosettes, complete with paper flower background, that someone wanted to get rid off. I fixed the rosettes to the flowery background again; I think they look good enough that way, too. If the sun deigns to show its face tomorrow, I'll take a photo of the whole bunch (and also of the Santa pencil holder; I still owe you guys that on).

On the surprise box front, I've reached #110; assuming I've counted right. But I'll have Mum re-count them anyway before the fair. She's the one with the head for numbers.

Those sound fun, looking forward to seeing them if you manage to get photos.

Yay on the surprise boxes, that's an impressive number!

That's a lot of progress today. Crossing fingers for the bathroom work!

Thanks. We are really nervous about the bathroom work, so sympathetic finger crossing might help.
