Must have of the week......

I blame Sarah for this completely. Now, a while back I did find myself getting lured into perusing E-bay for must-have bargains wasting hours looking for nothing in particular on that lovely website that is Ebay but I would like to think that I have grown out of that hobby now.

Sadly, Sarah keeps sending me links to stuff on Etsy and now I am well and truly hooked. Its like Ebay for crafty people. Everything you could possibly need in your crafty little world, made by independent bods, all with the added advantage that the prices are in US$ so when you convert it to £, it sounds like a 50% sale all the time (I'm easily fooled ;o) ).

Last week it was the funky ladybird stitch markers (that sadly M and little people in my house didn't buy me for Mothers day), this week I present you with the thing that has been missing from your life for all of these years, better than the banana protector, it is in fact the apple protector. I laughed at it to start with but now I am sitting here thinking what a cool idea it is and how J would be the talk of his class if he had one of those in his lunch box at school.....not sure it would be talk in a good way though; his friends might all think him/me a bit odd. It looks so funky though and is available in different colours.....maybe I could make one and reserve it for picnics or when I want to take an apple out and don't care about people laughing at me.............

Oh dear, I think the apple protector is very cool. Is that good or not?!

Ohhh that rocks! And I would totally use it - I think my four year old would love it too, but sadly I doubt his friends would hehe.
