It Is With Sadness...

That I have come to the decision to close my shop down.

It has been a very hard decision to make but it has been harder and harder to keep it all afloat since before Christmas, so after a lot of thinking, talking to hubby and sleepless nights I have decided to close down.

So now the date, has my web hosting is due on the 29th April and I am not renewing this so this will be the last day the shop will be live.

Orders will only be accepted up until Monday 20th April, any orders placed after this date will be canceled and money refunded.

A closing down sale will be posted soon.

I would like to thank all customer/member for your support, friendship and business over the last few years. I will miss you all. This has been a fantastic part of my life and I will miss it all.

Blogger Tip...

Have you ever wanted to get bigger photos onto blogger?
I have just read on another blog and thought what a great tip, so this is what you do....
Step 1:Download to Photobucket (or any online photo site that has a "direct link" to your photo). Step 2: Resize to 640 wide or for vertical 640 high.
Step 3: Highlight the direct link to your photo then click copy.
Step 4: Open Blogger and instead of browsing your computer to download your photos you will copy the direct link into the right where it says URL... Now depending on your blog design you might see all of the image.

If you have any great tips why not share them?
