Autumn Leaves #Etsy

In view of the changing season I decided to find some Autumn leaves. Or rather that should be crafts that are or have leaves on them.
Well it is topical at the minute as the leaves are changing colour, admittedly not much just yet, but more are turning every day.
It`s kind of sad and happy all at once. An ending and a beginning. I must admit I do like the changing seasons although at the end of each one I`m always sorry to see it go and mourn for a bit, off and on. But then each season has it pluses as well as minuses.
It`s now though that lot`s of people are looking ahead to the festive season, especially those that have big families and large groups of friends to buy for. It`s much easier to start buying now and spread the cost.
There are also many looking only as far as Halloween fun, trick or treating and parties, which of course is Autumn coloured. Well I think so at least. But a Halloween blog is for another day.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!

Look at the trees losing their leaves,
if that was clothing it would be sleeves.
The rest will take a while longer
especially newer ones, they`re stronger.
Another month or so they`ll be bare
but I don`t think they really care.
They still stand tall and proud
uncaring if there`s one or a crowd,
to see them all this way
naked now for many a day.
Us we`ll take delight in seeing a bunch
on the ground to kick through and crunch,
delighting in the bright crisp day
taking the opportunity for play!!

Handmade Revolution #Etsy

Well, how are you all? It`s been a while since I last posted on here.
It was nice to have the break as it had become something of a chore, mainly because I felt I had to post every day and over time it had become more elaborate.
Well now I`ll maybe post every couple of days or so and see how it goes. Christmas is coming and I know it makes it easier for some to be able to see a variety of crafts in one place. It helps me with my gift buying too as I`m always looking for something a bit different.
I prefer to buy handmade mainly because it`s usually better quality and you get exactly what you want. Most seller/crafters are more than happy to do custom orders too which is great because so often you see a style you like but wish it was a different colour or vice versa.
So come on, join the handmade revolution and support the small and micro businesses.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!

Come along and buy handmade
it`s allure will never fade.
The quality is the best
try us, put it to the test.
Join the handmade revolution
it`s part of mankind`s evolution,
moving away from corporate greed
come and help with planting the seed,
for a better world for everyone
and our children when we are gone.
