I have two of these lovely chickens in my house so today was a easy pick of the day when I saw a new addition from designer/crafter Swirlyarts.
Each of her chickens come with a name, made of retro and funky fabrics with a ultra modern touch.
I have a door stop and a pincushion which I love but here is the last pincushion named Decka the chicken:
Check out all the amazing handmade chicken that need a home over on Swirlyarts profile.

Today these Yoga Sock really stood out to me..
Mostly because I didn’t know you could get “Yoga Socks”. I’ve never heard of them until now!
I really makes sense.. I’ve not really tried Yoga bar a few positions with friends who say “this Yoga position will help your back”.. but I can see how these Knitted socks work. Well some Yoga halls are very cold and sure these socks will keep you nice a toasty along with the grip from the heal and toes need to do many Yoga positions.

My dad the potter
So meet my dad (see picture) who makes pots for a living..
I make websites for a living and way back in the 90’s I had the task to launch a site for my parents (as you do).
So once the site was online it was time for me to look a ways in getting the site in front of people (marketing) which to start with was hard.
Back in the 1990’s not many sites about crafts existed which of course was a problem so I had thought to start sites I needed..
… hence the birth of ukcraftwebsites and craftsforum…
The problem with the forum was we had to stop people just advertising as it looked spammy and really didn’t help others with being a crafter.
So the question came about of how can we show off all the wonderful work of our members?
Craftjuice was born…
If you don’t know what craftjuice is it’s a social network for crafters to show off designs ideas tutorials blogs.. basically anything crafty.. I get loads of emails from happy users and buyers who found items to buy browsing craftjuice and supporting the world of handmade!!
