I spent most of my summer hanging out with my dad who came to visit, learned how to stain the deck, wash the house and where to find single screws at Bunnings. In fact I reached a point where I could have started working at Bunnings myself. Screws in isle 9, fence paint isle 16, weed killer isle 20- you get the point ;-).

When I was not DIYing or gardening (or better said watching my dad gardening ;-)) I embraced the warm weather rand enjoyed reading books in my new and heavenly hammock (another dad- daughter project).

Allright…. So… I was absolutely right to feed the chicken(s) yesterday, because, if I have had the faintest idea of how the market turned out for me and everybody else, I would have COMPLETELY FREAKED OUT!!! Honestly, I can´t remember the last time I could not leave the table to hug a friend and then not be able to get back because a crowd of people had completely blocked my way back (I eventually made it back by crawling underneath the table which surely did not look very elegant with my bum sticking out). Nor can I ever remember that I had a friend (thank you, Steph!!) covering for me while going on a little bathroom break and refilling my water bottle and when coming back five minutes later she had made 5 sales! Crazy, crazy, crazy! I wish every market was like that *sigh, dream*!

I really should be finishing items for the Roxy tonight but there is chocolate right beside me. And then there is Facebook where I could catch up on the last couple of weeks in my friends life and oh my god the bathroom could use a clean. And the kitchen. And maybe I should paint the hallway. Or the doors first? But no, first of all I should mow the lawn! The grass is growing up to my hip. And while I am out there I really need to water my veggie garden which suffers in the wind so much. But wait, as soon as I show up in the garden I absolutely first of all need to feed my neighbors choocks because they rely on my and I can´t let them starve! Uhm what was I supposed to do in the first place? Oh, crocheting? Well, forget about that! The WORLD needs me!

Last preparations for the Craft Central Roxy Night Market tomorrow!

I always wanted to make these but this year I finally got the right yarn (mercerized cotton that I got in Germany), found baubles and the time to fiddle around. I very much love my first tries! This is my favorite!

I had a great day at Craft Central! The weather was yucky (sunny- not good for selling gloves and hats  but I met a lot of awesome crafters and did a bit of swapping which I always enjoy! And for the first time in maybe ever 😉 have been really happy with my set up! But see for yourself!

I have been working on a couple of new items for Craft Central and will post one every day until the big day has arrived. Because the weather today has been perfect for gardening (or crocheting in the sun!) I chose flowers!

Craft Central will be the biggest market of the year for me :-)!
