Have you seen these....?



Aren't they lovely, & beautifully packaged & produced...?
Trouble is... I know I've seen these images before...



Or is it just another trend..?





Or is it because I feel so passionate about hand made, creative people.....




It just seems to me, that in the world of ALL things handmade, craft, paper, needlework etc... artists come up with lovely vintage images, & new & wonderfully creative ideas, & then, it seems that a large company gets hold of these ideas, & snatches them away... making the extraordinary very ordinary....?

I know just what you mean, but I see this a lot at university. Say if I go to New Designers where all the graduates display their work, you would be amazed at how similar some pieces of work are they are all 'original'their Universitys are hundreds of miles apart...but their ideas can be almost identical??? you see it on the blogs all of the time. But yes you are right, about bigger companys copying clever crafters....a big no no !! that is just not fair, I've had stuff copied and I have seen it for sale on ebay !! ha ha, I just think it's a shame for the people that do it, that they have not learnt what is in their hearts, just waiting to be made.....
I havn't done the Fair I could never have managed it, not with full time and my illness, but I bet it is fantastic. I am getting much better now in fact I have had a good three days allin a row so keep fingers crossed xxxx
I hope you are not working tooooo hard, and are still crafting from the look of those lovely hearts.
Lots of hugs
