Well look at that - it works!

Thanks to the helpfull peeps on the blogger forum (what was i worried about?!) we figured the prob was the previous template code i was using - so ive canned that for a bit! I did like it though, so sweet and girly!
Oh well - will have to stick to this looking a bit mismatched for the time beeing - meh - who cares right?!

Guess what? I had some of my MIA swarovskis turn up this week! Im still waiting a on a few more lots - so fingers crossed i can get stuck into the new designs and unveil them soon! My Lovely friend Lyndall - who made my (and many of our friends too) engagement ring is going to first give me some lessons an assembling a few things....like a dummies course for the time poor i think!

What else is news..........waiting on some wholesale wadding - quiltlite for baby quilts and some wadding from my supplier - tax return cant come soon enough i think!
Im also gunning to buy a Go! Cutter (or even better the Studio cutter!) but seriously need some $$$$ for these! Hello...lotto??? :)

Blogger problems

Well - it appears that blogger isnt working for me at the moment - i have tried to access my page from several computers both at work and at home - all i get is my header/banner pic full screen. No posts no nothing. Since this is an avenue to showcase the processes of my work and the ideas im working on i find it very frustrating and also feel leaving blogger problems and help for them up to posting on a forum hard too.
Hopefully i can get it to work soon - if not i may go rather postal. And im at work - so i dont think they need to see me loose it and start ranting like a crazy lady at the screen! I am lucky enough to be able to post in here on my break when at work - bit of a waste at the moment !

I recently emailed Brigette to ask her about designing my logo - check out her blog and look at the beautiful work she does - she also has an etsy store!

Come on down new website!

Well - the website is almost here!
kokoandgracie.com.au - dont try just yet as it hasnt gone live yet!

Our Grand Opening will see some old favourites - and hopefully some new added to the store, especially many more new hair clips and accessories. Time is a  factor at the moment, so whilst i try to stock my store a bit more - im working on my Swap item - cant post pics yet as its too early before the sending date! Im also waiting - STILL! for my swarovski crystals to come and other supplies for my beautiful, one of a kind necklaces. there will only be 14 or so - they will be absolutely stunning - best worn with a strapless dress - or wedding! Or just that beautiful dinner date out with the one you love! Think lace, pearl, crystal and some surprise elements.
I have a new toy hopefully arriving in the next week or two that will assist my  hands with material cutting....I.love.new.toys!!!!!

Its a beautiful rainy winter day here in Old Sydney town - hope you are somewhere warm and toasty - if you have bought a blanket or quilt from me - take a picture using it - send it to me and i will post it on th K&G Facebook page!
