Something Fishy #Handmade #Folksy

Hmm... What to have today, that is the question and what`s more, where from? I really cannot decide, inspiration seems to have deserted me at the minute. I shall have to go and have a wander and see what I find. maybe I will have a mix of sites, that would be different I suppose, just a random sampling maybe? I will give it some thought.
I saw a fish ACEO on Folksy, it`s the first picture and then wondered if there were many fishy crafts. I have never had fish on here before, well not all fish, and I wondered if I could find enough fish in a variety of crafts to fill this blog.
Well, once I searched I was amazed. Who would have thought there were so many? I`m still reeling! A quick scroll few the first pages and I was hooked! Get it? That`s me trying to be witty and very likely failing. Don`t think I`ll make a comedian somehow.
Anyway, I digress. There were about 82 pages under fish so I knew I had scored a hit, Yay!! Hope you enjoy these fishy choices I`ve made today. If they aren`t to your taste, then pop along to the shops as they all have more fabulous delectable creations in them.
Yesterday.... hmmm.... let me think. Bit of housework, a trip to the shops and out for a delicious long lunch. It was a carvery at the local pub and I ate so much I could have rolled home. I didn`t really want the dessert but felt obliged to have one out of politeness. Well the others might not have had one if I didn`t..... Okay okay, once they were having one I just had to force one down too. Tough job but someone has to do it.
Yesterday was actually milder, the sun came out too for a while, although it did get windy as well. Could this be the beginning of the end for winter? One can but hope.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!

Winter eased it`s wicked grip
and finally stopped cracking the whip.
The temperature rose to a heady seven
we thought we were in Spring heaven.
The sun shone, the snow began to melt
and finally, at last we felt
winter might be fading away.
Had it finally had it`s day?
So when I saw a fish ACEO
a lightbulb began to glow.
Fisherman adorning river banks
would very likely give thanks
for the much gentler touch of spring
though I doubt that they will sing.
Me, I like the fish on here
and these didn`t die it`s clear.
These are creations made for you
and I`ve found more than a few.
Fishy delights in many a guise,
all sorts of colours and size.
Art, mosaics, glass and a card,
choosing a favourite will be hard.
Jewellery, a mirror and a paperweight
if you love fish this will sate
your appetite for fishy delights
once you get these in your sights!!
