Well... here we are at the end of November... My last entry to my blog was February ... how ridiculous is that?  I actually think that February was perhaps the last quiet moment I had .. since then it has been a complete whirlwind of events ...The facebook page has taken off to extreme levels and I've made some amazing customers that I would like to call friends ... We have a chat in the day time and a laugh in the evening and it certainly keeps me going during busy and stressful times.

Since September I have been working really hard ..... June was crazy for "Apple for the Teacher" keyrings and October went bonkers over Poppy pins .... after selling so many poppies ....  I was really proud to donate £100 towards the Peterborough British Legion Poppy Appeal... It was lovely to visit them at the Paston and Gunthorpe Community Center and see all the hard work that went on for such a lovely cause... Next year we will start early and I intend to up the donation to 10% for each poppy sold.... 

After the poppy appeal came the Christmas rush or should I say "The Slinky Rush" .... after the Slinky Santa and Slinky Snowman ... a group of Slinky Characters popped up ... I've not had a count up yet but I will.... and oh BOY will there be a lot!!!!  The Rudolf is my fave ... but by far the Slinky Santa is the most popular....  How are we going to top that next year?

A big welcome last month to Rhian ... my Glam Glassistant that comes and helps on Saturdays and one evening during the week....  On her first week I was so nervous about her cutting herself on glass and had a HUGE PILE of plasters on hand ... I was later to discover that she was in fact allergic to plasters and did finally cut herself on ... wait for it ... the tape gun!!!! ........Although I do not understand her taste in music (who are these bands... am I old?), she has settled in really well and no trips to casualty have been needed (YET!).

So in a nutshell.... a fantastic year for us ... I can only thank my lovely customers from the website and my facebook page for being such stars.... for the chatting, for the banter, for the orders and for most of all ... for putting up with my lack of admin skills due to lack of time spent on the computer and too much time making lovely glass.... As we grow, I hope this will change but for now ... I thank you for your shouts, nudges and pokes....

Next year ... I want to be bigger and better but still be approachable, affordable and always here for a natter and a pinot at the end of a hard night .... big hugs from me..... xxxxx

    Running a small business comes with its own set of challenges, but nothing could have prepared me for the ordeal of losing access to my Bitcoin wallet. I had carefully set aside CAD 195,000 in Bitcoin as a safety net for my business, something I believed would provide financial security in uncertain times. To make things easier, I had entrusted my wallet to a friend who was helping me manage my finances. In hindsight, this was a decision that would cost me dearly. One day, I logged in to check my balance, only to find that the wallet was empty. My heart sank as I realized what had happened. My so-called friend had betrayed me, and the funds were gone. The betrayal cut deep, not just because of the money, but because of the trust I had placed in someone I considered a close ally. I felt foolish, angry, and utterly devastated. Losing that amount of money could have crippled my business, and I didn’t know where to turn. I came across Cranix Ethical Solution Haven. They were mentioned in a forum I was browsing in a last-ditch effort to find some solution. I was skeptical, but I had nothing left to lose, so I decided to reach out to them. From the very first conversation, I knew I was in good hands. The team was not only professional but also incredibly empathetic. They understood the emotional toll this situation had taken on me and assured me that they would do everything in their power to help. What stood out to me was how thorough they were in their approach. Cranix Ethical Solution Haven didn’t just focus on getting my funds back; they also educated me on how to better secure my assets moving forward. I discovered features and tools within their service that I hadn’t even known existed—like multi-layer encryption and secure storage solutions that could have prevented this disaster in the first place. They guided me through the process of tightening up my security, so I wouldn’t have to face this nightmare again. After what felt like an eternity of waiting, I received the news that my funds had been recovered. The relief was overwhelming. It wasn’t just about getting the money back; it was about regaining control over my business and my peace of mind. This experience taught me a valuable lesson—never entrust your financial security to someone else entirely. Thanks to Cranix Ethical Solution Haven, I was able to recover from a potentially devastating loss and come out stronger on the other side. Their dedication and expertise provided me with a lifeline when all seemed lost. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, don’t hesitate to contact them. They are the lifeline you need when all seems lost.

    I was scammed over ( $275,000 ) by someone I met online on a fake investment project. I started searching for help legally to recover my money and I came across a lot of Testimonies about Century Hackers Recovery Experts.

I am so relieved and the best part was, the scammer was located and arrested by local authorities in his region.
