Mind the gap!


I always find the gap between Christmas and New Year a bit odd! 
Fortunately, working for myself means not having to go into the office, shop or wherever before even the turkey leftovers have been finished!
I was going to take a few days off from the computer but the emails pile up so alarmingly I have switched on each day to keep up to date...  Good job I did as I even had questions on Christmas day about something on Etsy...
I decided to change the banner on the Etsy shop as it didn't look quite right and then I strayed onto my long forgotten blog and ended up doing a re-vamp on it as well.
More to do, but so far, so good :-)
