My favourite poet Maya Angelou

Maya Angelou said this:

'I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.'

‘I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.'

'I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life.'

'I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life.'

'I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance .'

'I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back..'

'I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.'

'I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one.'

'I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.'

'I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.'

'I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.'

New Products!

Okay so it may seem like I have disappeared off the face of the earth because I haven't been online, but things have been crazy busy. My Company just relocated offices so in between packing, moving, unpacking and still trying to do my job in there somewhere I have been too exhausted to come online. But, I have been working on some new things.

I have finally created some items that I had planned to make before I even opened my Etsy Store. I am literally just waiting for some good light to take some photos (which will hopefully be tomorrow) and then I will list them. I wanted to do more with Polymer Clay so I have started a new series which I will call "Captured Creatures" which are small polymer figures in a tiny glass bottle. They were quite painful to make but I am very happy with the result. I squashed so many little creatures in frustration trying to perfect them. The tricky part was trying to make them small enough to fit in the neck of the bottle but still making them "fill" the bottle.

I am so excited to be able to cross something off my list. I will post some pictures once I take some. I am looking forward to your feedback once you see them.
