<br />
I hope your week is going well... Mine has been one of great sadness and it is with tears and a heavy heart that I write to you all.<br />
At the moment things are not good... i won't go into too much detail but I am seriously thinking and i mean seriously thinking not mucking around no joke nor attention seeking crap.. about permanently having up my beloved pink apron and saying goodbye to the shabby/craft world i adore.<br />
I am exhausted and I cant even think. This weekend Dave ands i are going to get rid and go through some of the furniture we had in The Silver Teapot and yes the website and name may go too.. as well as Pumpkernickle Kids. I am saying this now to prepare you as if i go ahead ALLLLLL my craft items will be sold off, that includes fabrics, trims, sewing machine, tables, laces, buttons everything I have collected for years will be on offer. <br />
I am actually heartbroken and distraught and have been crying for 4 days now. I feel like a death has occured in me... I am honestly at my wits end and cannot take it anymore. I have tried and tried and tried and don't seem to get anywhere (yes some sales have gone through and I'm getting some recognition but it isn't enough to keep the debt wolves at bay i have been trying so hard to fend off.. we still have no idea if Dave has full time work so I wanted to get extra money so we aren't so broke all the time, but it seems it never ever stops and all the positive attitude in the world at the moment isn't helping... and I cannot continue to only get 4 hours of sleep a day maybe 5 or 6 if I'm lucky trying to make things and restart my business. It was my dream to have the businesses work, and to revive The Silver Teapot... but it doesn't seem to be the case. I wanted to fight and prove those who condemned us wrong and that we are still around and stronger and haven't been beaten. But the truth is I have.. I feel like a wounded animal that has been picked and ripped apart and has been trying for too long to keep all the vultures away.. and now I just feel... let them come....I have no fight or anything left..I have had alot happen for the last few years and I know there is always someone worse BUT I really don't care about anyone else I cant i have to focus on me...and my needs. I am also totally alone.. and feel it... there are always 1000's of excuses as to why noone can help... I have a very demanding little girl (which is all i will say who gets destructive if I'm not with her so I have to be there at all times, leaving no time for business nor me) as you know my baby is due now in 10 weeks<br />
Dave is very supportive but can only do so much. So in a way this is a goodbye from me.<br />
I have a few options that I cant think about right now... Dave doesn't want me to get rid of anything apart from the de clutter as I may regret it... I'm not convinced but not being hasty either<br />
I feel at this point rather than look at my craft stuff its best if its not here at all. That way I can forget and move on. I will keep you posted as to what is going on and if i choose to sell everything as I want my things to go to people who will love and cherish them as much as I do<br />
So thank you lovely blogger ladies, meeting and reading up on you has been a true delight even if I haven't left comments... you have inspired and touched me, I have laughed and cried with you.. and stared in awe and wonder at the talent you all have, admired your homes and felt pride for and with your families.. the world is indeed a better place with all of you in it... keep sewing your threads through the quilt of life and contributing... I just need to get back to me and have some serious decisions to make<br />
take care<br />
love always<br />
Vicki<br />
PS thank you for your comments on my work and in general, and for hearing my voice and being kid when i put my things out there... but int he previous post well a while back now I talked about living life... I have to as right now I'm a shell and need time to be kind to myselfVickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16944448504394578991noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2978386776116303434.post-12184069882752389002010-09-24T18:49:00.002+10:002010-09-24T18:50:25.414+10:00feather, flowers and creating Hi Everyone<br />

with a few gentle encouragements and a few hard kick up the bums... I have decided to shop MY version on the faux cupcake... I admire the work of Mandii, Natasha, Shannon and Sheryn so much I felt mine weren't good enough to show.. I made them AGES ago and so here they are...<br />
I am planning on selling them so we'll just see huh? *fingers crossed you like them*<br />
these are the small ones....<br />

this is just a no frills post, and kind of ties in with my previous<br />
BUT with more passion than I have felt in a long time<br />
we are so tied up with a superficial world we forget whats important to us.. we set our own restrictions on ourselves and make excuses as to why things happen and that we cant do what we want to or cant achieve due to others putting negative onto us (or our parents saying you live in this class of person so you must stay that way blah blah) and we take it on and believe what people say about and to us....so whether you comment or not please read....through this and if i can touch you and get my small message to you then i have done what this post is set to do....<br />
PLEASE live your lives to the fullest, take that holiday, start that business, tell people you love them cause it can all change in a heartbeat.. literally.<br />
So this post is no frills no pics nothing just me,<br />
I woke up at about 4am Saturday morning with a chest pain... but thought nothing and went back to sleep.. an hour and a half after i woke with it again only this time... with the pain going down my left arm and tingling in my fingers... now both my parents have heart issues so i called Bowral hospital.. they told me to come in straight away...<br />
to cut a long story short... i was hooked up to machines as they did think i was having a heart attack... then they thought it was a blood clot in my lung, so i was poked and prodded and had to have an xray...don't worry William is fine they covered him with lead aprons (they said as I am in my third trimester there was very little risk to him, i had ultrasound on my heart and yes they were going to do a CT.. but held off due to the baby.) Needless to say i was told in no uncertain terms what risks there where and what may or may not happen to me and/or my baby and what they planned on doing if "the worst" happened.. I will not go into that though but I'm sure you get the gist of what i am saying<br />
As it turns out they are pretty sure I "dislodged" a rib (due to moving in bed to allow for a big baby) that caused nerve issues and i had to stay in hospital over night so they could watch me.. the staff and midwives at Bowral are incredible and i couldn't go to the loo without them not knowing.... I still have to be very careful but I believe I'm being watched over and was blessed to have this HUGE wake up call.. (yes I nearly lost people eg my mum and i cherish her but you see things differently when its yourself)<br />
Rather than look at this happening to me as a I'm sorry for me situation I'm not has taught me how fragile we all are (i did know this BUT until something like this happens and your scared it doesn't truly hit home) all i thought about was my beloved husband, my daughter, my family and my unborn son.... i couldn't sleep and i really reflected on things that had happened...upsets that i have had... eg i don't fit in blah blah blah... and my eternal I'm gonna show you what i can do.... BUT I can honestly say i have a real passion for it right now.. and its something I haven't felt in years...<br />
I have vowed to tell people i love them more... i look at my husband and family with new eyes, I didn't care for social politics before but now i just don't feel anything... I used to feel out of the loop so to speak.. but now I don't care.. take me as i am, as i will take you as your are...I have also learnt who cares and who doesn't and that's fine.... I was reading about the power of the law of attraction and can see where i have gone wrong... being away from Lily and Dave was very hard... it will be again when Will is born BUT we get a wonderful gift then that i get to bring home... I still got a gift but a different kind (yeah Im going on but bear with me please im trying to write and get all my thoughts down) <br />
i am blessed beyond words or emotion... so my friends I plan on living to the fullest and please so should you... and if you'll excuse me.. I must get to my sewing machine<br />
<br />
take care and be blessed all of you<br />
take your dreams and fly high in the air<br />
much love<br />

a quick note as I am really busy running around...I feel that I know the ladies at Hill Top AND Mittagong post office very well, I have sen them nearly everyday for a few weeks now.... I have a few new creations for a very shabby Christmas I should have pics up this weekend... I dug up all my old patterns from the 90's when I used to make teddy bears.. all I will say is I'm happy with what i have done so far...<br />
<br />
we have lots of Christmas decorations on the way... drying actually LMAO<br />
just a few finishing touches (that I have to wait for) and we'll see....<br />
<br />
I have also opened up and ebay store for The Silver Teapot..(we have decided to keep both businesses as they are both showing alot of promise and ya just can't let the pretties and shabbiness go can you? NOT even Dave can, so we are throwing everything we have into both... that way we can have the best of both words, pretties and TOYS!!!!!) and will be listing lots of goodies there including padded coat hangers, shower caps, aprons, quilt sets, ironing board covers.. you name it... Hubby has to help HAHAHAHAHA no really hes great!<br />
we have taken delivery of some delicious fabric lately and trims... so I'm pretty excited to get cracking! no rest for the wicked hahahaha, i will also be showing things I have made over the years which i have held back due to not wanting to upset anyone... BUT I have been encouraged by some wonderful ladies and kinda feel my work is good enough... yeah yeah i rave about this but I'm starting to feel comfortable with my style<br />
and more relaxed.. i mean really how do you ladies (and gents) know who I am and what I'm about if I don't show you??? yes I am a doofus LMAO <br />
AND in those classic words (from Strictly Ballroom... channelling Fran!) "A life lived in fear is a life half lived"<br />
<br />
William is cooking nicely and is starting to really kick.. YUP at 2-4AM funny that huh?<br />
and I am HUGE once again... i look full term and am asked if i having twins!<br />
<br />
I also have a few new hair clips and facinators (for us ladies) coming out all I will say is Tea and cupcakes..<br />
<br />
Hope you all have a fab Friday!!!<br />
love to you<br />

just a quick post<br />

I was told once that to withhold knowledge wasn't great and i think eveyone is entitled to know and have lovely things and experiences.<br />
<br />
I have given away a few tricks in the past to select few.. with great success ... but now I have decided to release them to you all so we can all enjoy them, i feel it is only fair. My dream is to write a book to help people have lovely things ON A BUDGET! but as far as publishing goes? I havent the foggiest idea where and how to start.. I do however have scrap books full of things, sketches and ideas<br />

I feel im ready too<br />
<br />
anyway I am currently looking at things to share with you all, I had great encouragment from Mandii at <a href="http://shabbydreaming.blogspot.com/">shabby dreaming</a> after putting it out there on our facebook fan page <a href="http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/The-Silver-Teapot/212434558645">The-Silver-Teapot</a><br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do<br />
much love<br />

ps I should start posting on a regular basis.. well I hope to hahahaVickihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16944448504394578991noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2978386776116303434.post-66139035932315584482010-05-26T08:25:00.002+10:002010-05-26T08:28:07.835+10:00Missing my shop, frustration and what can be doneHI everyone,<br />
lately I have been really missing my old shop... I have been creating away and happy with what i have been turning out, I only wish i still had the cafe as i and HUGE windows for display and i know the pieces would work, sell and look great! its just so frustrating i have so many ideas its literally driving me nuts.. and i find it upsetting... i don't wanna dwell on it though but channel it and make something good happen<br />
<br />
I have thought many times about reopening, and at this point I cant....as most of you know I'm pregnant and <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">I h</span>ave a 2 year old... and I kinda like the idea of being home.. I know you cant have everything... but can i? and why cant i? such a closed thought makes me want to break all the rules and hit out at the world again... why do we confine ourselves to i cant have everything?<br />
<br />
i have approached the council to ask if i could make a shop out of my garage.. but to no avail! which i think sucks<br />
<br />
BUT BUT BUT!!!!!! I'm sure if I think there is a way around it, I'm allowed to trade as a web business so why cant i display my wares nicely downstairs? and pretend?<br />
<br />
just a thought....what do you think?<br />
<br />
I'm also changing things with the silver teapot and expanding on ideas.... maybe a name change?<br />
new logo? image?<br />
<br />
what do you think?<br />
<br />
anyway I'm off to the Dr for a 8 week checkup! YAY<br />
<br />
i hope you <span class="goog-spellcheck-word" style="background: yellow;">all</span> have a beautiful day<br />
