Adventures in silk and tulle

Hello again! So I got very very bored this afternoon, and this sort of mindset results in me making very pretty but completely useless things. So here we go - a purple silk and tulle skirt. Its teeeeeeeny, so im thinking of selling it on ebay as a fairy skirt for a little girl (since i dont know any personally).
You can't really tell how it falls properly from the flattened out version, but it goes all pointy and pixie like at the bottom when worn. (Its the same style as the black and red skirt posted below but a bit more poofy and tutu like cos of the tulle)

Mum says try "etsy.com" as well as it's like eBay but specially for handmade things

And it's very cute! I'm sure a Little Fairy Princess will love it :)

yeah i am familiar with etsy, ive been thinking of making an account, but my experiences on my crafting forum make me think its pretty hard to sell stuff on etsy if you havnt built up a client base, cos its so much more specialised. Tell your mum thanks though!

Hi Alix,
How to add people to your blog - you go to 'Customise' and then 'add a gadget' and add a 'link list' and put all the addresses you want to link to - easy peasy! If I can manage it anyone can :-)
Love
Janet
