New Stuff just in ....

A real quickie because it's New Year's Eve and I've got other stuff to be doing apart from updating the website !!!

Like sausages ? And dogs?? Then you'll love our fab new sausage dog embroidered ribbon - £1.60 a metre. Get it here

PS. All of our embroidered ribbon has now been restocked.

Are you a misfit ? No, of course you're not - but some of our felt is !! We're selling off all of our felt sheets, shapes, string and felt balls that just don't make the grade. But be quick, because when they're gone, they're gone. Find them here

2 new colours of beading elastic have been added to the site - Royal Blue & Purple. They're here

Just before Christmas we had a big felt delivery - it has all now been checked off and loaded onto the website so all of the 10x10 felt sheets are now back in stock, along with the felt string, most of the metre squares and all but 1 colour felt purses.

And that's it for THIS YEAR !!!

Wishing you all a wonderfully felty, buttony, ribbony, creative New Year !

(ps. My New Year's resolution is to learn how to speellll !)

See you in 2012 xx

MERRY CHRISTMAS !

Wishing all of our blog readers, customers, Twitter followers, Facebook fans and felt, button & ribbon addicts everywhere a very

MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

Thank you all for your support throughout 2011 and we look forward to seeing you all in 2012 with lots of exciting news and website updates etc

Purple pants ??!!

Yesterday, on our mammoth 7 hour trek back from Cornwall, whilst stuck on that wonderful road to nowhere, the M25, I heard numerous times on the radio news that the most popular colour of knickers for men to purchase the love of their lives this year is PURPLE ! No longer is red popular (thank goodness for that !!)

So, whilst sat in a stationery traffic jam for almost 2 hours, listening to the kids bickering in the back and hubby snoring in the passenger seat, I got to wondering how many purple items we have for sale on the Blooming Felt website. These are the ones I thought of ....

Hundreds of Buttons

Felt Sheets

Felting Wool

Miles of Ribbon

Felt String (ooh - that's a crappy photo !)

Thousands of Felt Balls

Bags & Purses

And then, when I got home and actually typed the word "purple" into the search bar on the website, was stunned when I realised how many more purple things we have for sale !!

Cabochons

Felt pebbles

Felt hearts

Felt flowers (another crappy photo - sorry!)

Felt stars

Cotton Embroidery Threads

Crochet Flowers

Jumbo ric-rac

Ribbon & cord necklaces

And Beading elastic (new on the site today !)

I couldn't believe it !! It has finally dawned on me exactly how many wonderful things we have for sale on our site .... and not just in purple either !!

Actually, I think I'm liking purple ... but I don't think I'm a purple pants kind of gal !!

Look what I got !!

A while back I was very lucky and got a tax rebate !!! Now, as that's not something that happens everyday I decided to treat myself. Normally, when I treat myself I buy new stock lines for the website, but this time I decided to be really selfish and get something just for me !!

I inherited a chair from my Great Aunt a number of years ago and it has sat in the corner of the sitting room with its original cover.

But a week or so ago, it went off to be covered ....... and came back looking like this

How amazing is that ??!!!!! I LOVE my new chair !!

Huge thanks go to Kelly Swallow who created the amazing design. Do check out her website and see all of the wonderful chairs and sofas Kelly has transformed. If you are lucky enough to get a tax rebate, maybe you can treat yourself too !
