competition
Hi everyone.
Hope we are all well.
I hope that you remember that a few weeks ago i set up a competition to win a bracelet and have had no guesses. The comp will end this Sunday so that's 5 days until you get a chance to win the bracelets for free!!
If you would like to enter leave a comment with how many beads you think are in the jar or send me a private email at anaflori51@gmail.com.
Thanks Hannah.

This sumer were going all out!
Hi all!!
Hope everybody is well!
This summer at anaflori were going all out we carnt wait to start doing craft fairs all over the place!
At the moment we finishing our tags and handmade business cards. The tags and the cards both have to be hand made because it represents better what i do, it does take a lot of time though so i will be purchasing some back up ones on the net just to make sure we have enough! I will hand them to everyone i see, as i want all to love the handmade jewellery we make as much as we do.
Let me know what you think of them!! Don't be shy to post a comment below!
Obviously i didn't just stop there, these are our handmade jewellery tags!
I think they are grate because they are hard wearing hand made and cheaper to keep the coast of the jewellery down for our lovely loyal customers. Its small perfect ideas and touches like this that make a piece worth its while. I am so exited to get the jewellery out at those fairs now because i just love it. Like a child with smarties, HAHA
I made loads of the tings just couldn't stop
Perfect now thats what i call going all out.
But please if you wish tell us what you think and dont be shy!!
Lots of hugs Hannah

EASTER
hi all.
So Easter is here its big!!
All the locals are celebrating and so are we! Easter in Romania is very important and its a perfect time to meet some more of the other half's family.
Lovely people they are!
At Easter we drink, eat and be merry just like Christmas in England!
I love Easter here. Painting and smashing each others eggs going to the church at 11.30 at night to hear the priest singing and god being re-born. Its just lovely Romania is such full of culture and difference!All the celebrating will come to a halt and the summer will be well on its way!!!

CUR
Hi everyone
I am so exited about something and i really feel the need to share.
I like to call it CUR. (Cheep Useful Recycling)
They all talk about global warming, saving water and being good to the planet. I love to do this, but some times and i'm sure we can all admit it, we slip and put something in the bin that could have been recycled or we forget to switch the tap off while we brush our teeth.You know them little things.
After all we are just all human but we try!
so any way ...
Yesterday we visited our favorite shop that sells second hand clothes cheep its called the 2 lei shop and 2 lei is equivalent to £0.40 for example, or $0.61 or 0.46euro, REAL CHEEP.
Well in Romania some clothes are real expensive and some clothes are cheep like anywhere else in the world.
So what we like to do is (CUR) find clothes from the second hand shop spruce them up a little bit wash them and then wear them!
Its just that simple and there is nothing wrong with doing it as long as we wash them. Its so cheep and fun and we can make anything that we like and no one will have the same things as us what an amazing, affordable way to always have new clothes all the time!!
Our friends have said to us where did you get this, that, the other, and we said well when we bought it, it was a bed sheet or a pillow case or something ridiculous like that.
CUR really works and you don't need so much time, money or skill.
I spend approximately 1 hour on each piece and teat it like a hobby when i have a spare hour on a Sunday or something.
I AM NOT EVEN A SEWING ARTIST HAHA! I am not so good with a sewing machine and doing it by hand i can not even sew straight, but i enjoy it and saving all that money to have economical one of a kind clothing is perfect!!
Just a perfect example this used to be a pillow case and now its my favorite one of a kind new old summer skirt
The pillow case coast me 2 Lei (£0.40) the buttons were included and i bought 1 meter of elastic for the waist which cost me 2 Lei (£0.40) plus time (1 hour)equals 4 Lei (£0.80) in total and i still have elastic left for my next creation!
Its a grate idea for kids clothing as they are always growing and getting messy so why spend a load of cash?
Perfect you try it and if you mess up you hardly waste a fortune!
