#Time Out #Handmade #Folksy.

Clocks today. I have seen so many stunning clocks at different times on Folksy that it suddenly occurred to me to do a blog on clocks. As they vary so much I thought that they shpuld have a showcase all of their own. There are of course, so many more than I could possibly show on here, so be sure to check out their shops for even more outstanding work.
Now what did I do yesterday....? I took my youngest grandson out for a while as I was babysitting sitting him while his mum was at work. We did have fun and lot`s of giggles. I got out my crochet while he was sitting quietly, half a sleep, but didn`t do any as he soon livened up again.
Did half an hours worth as we waited to collect the 4 yr old from school and did do some last night for a couple of hours.
I bought some more yarn too... Another 10 balls, oh dear. I really am hopelessly addicted. In my defense it was yarn with a shimmer thread running through it and I was getting low on it. I have been trying out some new ideas and loving the results. Have also had ideas for adding beads to certain items so will be doing that soon. I think they are going to look fantastic and will certainly brighten up the winter.
As usual, to see a description or larger picture, just click on the item to view it in the shop.

Time is always ticking by
you really don`t need to sigh.
Does your timepiece tick tock
is it a traditional clock?
Clocks are very different now
the makers should take a bow.
Here we have some so pretty,
thers that are quite witty.
Others that are works of art
from which you could never part.
A lovely clock for a child
they`re bound to think it`s wild.
Whether made from a bottle, CD or wood
with all these choices you could
get gifts for all, at one go
something they can put on show.
Whatever they like there`s bound to be one
they like, so be quick before it`s gone.
Use your time and make it fun
be sure to take time in the sun.
Use it wisely, it will soon pass by
time not used will too quickly fly.
When it`s passed you look back
wondering where you did lack.
Why has it all gone so fast,
why did none of it last?
Just make the most of every hour
because in that time you will flower!
