Hello everyone,
Now I know you look forward to my comments in the newsletter about
the weather, it's the highlight of our week, I can hear you say!!!
So, you will glad to hear that we have had some lovely snow, last
night and this morning (Sunday as I write this). We were watching
tv, popped into the kitchen to wash up and low and behold the
garden was covered!!! The snow flakes were massive, huge!!
Then the weirdest thing happened, a single strike of lightning!!!
The whole sky lit up like a bright sheet and then, a rumble of
thunder! I have never ever known lightning and thunder at the
same time as snow. It was all very strange...!!!
It's sunny now and most of the snow has melted, so I will stop
rambling and get on
with our news for you...
NEW SHAPES ADDED:
We have been going through the sample shapes we recently got from
one of our new suppliers. There are some great shapes. We will
be introducing them over the coming weeks, and months no doubt,
there are lots of them!! Plus the boxes are coming soon too!
We have just one new shape to show you this time out, a set three
candy canes.
We have had a quite a few requests for these so I am sure they
are going to be popular, especially for xmas projects. Also, we
have a couple of shapes back in stock that I thought I would highlight
for you. The cut
out letters are so popular they just fly out the door as soon
as we get them, we have a limited supply of them back in stock,
but you'd best be quick! 3.8cm
circles are back in too!

FINAL THOUGHTS
A few inspirational thoughts for your about creativity...
There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to
be a butterfly.
Buckminster Fuller
It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong,
than to be always right by having no ideas at all.
Edward de Bono
Creativity requires the courage to let go of certainties.
Erich Fromm
Happiness is not in the mere possession of money; it lies in
the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
