New Designs for our Christmas ornaments

 Our next Christmas Ornaments will be executed using the designs of three household names,

1. Dimensions  ( 100 Cross Stitch Christmas Ornaments Book).

2. Verarchtert 

3.1. Janlynn

We hope you enjoy  the ornaments and have a chance to meet me personally when I find a suitable venue.

These household names are accessible, you can purchase their kits and books in amazon and most importantly are designs that really are going to be of interest to the general public.

Janylyn is offering free delivery for all their kits available in Amazon, but hurry up because stock is low! Check here !

The Dimensions Christmas Ornaments Kits are now on sale in Amazon, grab yourself a bargain

Vervavo is selling via Amazon Christmas table runners kits, Christmas Cross stitch Cards kits, Christmas Cushions kits and Christmas multi use kits. You can check their Amazon stock here  

Our labels are golden labels with the names of who executed the ornament, my name then my Blog name and ornaments are packed individually and will be featured individually.

Remember that I also am a good rug maker, and ordered some yarn to execute lots of rugs , I say lots because will be on canvas and cross stitch, and will be ready for Christmas Fairs.

When this happen, please log in Just Giving Page where I set the Fundraising for the Christmas Ornaments on behalf of the charity of my choice, which is The Children Air Ambulance. 

If you can't attend the fair , at least comment in the video and say hi! Thank you!

Best wishes,

Ariane Crafts Decorations upgrade to Gobelin Petit Point canvas

 As we upgrade the Christmas decorations, we look for ways to reflect this upgrade and achieve uniqueness in our craft.

Aside upgrading the ornaments backing from fabric to leather, we are now  increasing the canvas count so  can execute decorations more in line with Victorian times, when such ornaments based in textiles were more in vogue.

This will also allow our crafts to be more competitive, as the competition with machine made Christmas cross stitch is one that few crafters want to face head to head.

Using wool and Gobelin canvas will allow me to maintain competition away in future  Christmas Crafts Fairs.

Best wishes,

ARIANE CRAFTS DECORATIONS WITH LEATHER BACKING PACKED INDIVIDUALLY : Bucilla Bell pattern

 

Executed and assembled by me, with  genuine leather backing and golden pipping cord. 

Packed in A6 boxes .

Sealed until Crafts Fair date. 

Johnson and Johnson Talc lawsuit , which we in Britain are not even aware in our streets

I was invited for a Briefing today about a lawsuit against Johnson and Johnson because it deliberately caused cancer to women and knowingly advertised the product with asbestos to African American women and people of colour abroad.

With heavy heart I will attend this briefing to hear from who is taking this lawsuit forward on behalf of Afro American women....

BUT I am heavy hearted because in my street , where I live in Penge Johnson and Johnson powder  is sold for one pound at the one pound shop and in the local pharmacies and I have used Johnson and Johnson baby powder until this year under my arm , in my back and legs.

I remember speaking about talcum with women during my pregnancy, at women's groups and seeing the product around in hospitals.

You can still purchase it online in Britain in Boots https://www.boots.com/johnsons-baby-powder-500g-10260587?cm_mmc=bmm-buk-google-ppc-_-PLAs_HeroCompare-_-Baby-_-UK_Smart_Shopping_Baby&gclid=CjwKCAjwy7CKBhBMEiwA0Eb7amRNRgZ62G_EAseoHv32-9To2sjpicNUzWm2dAZuozSvj0t9smlvUxoCMMwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

You can buy it in bulk in Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Johnsons-Multipack-Clinically-Newborn-Delicate/dp/B083MWWC6J/ref=asc_df_B083MWWC6J/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=398666527122&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9636182025589098182&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045879&hvtargid=pla-868405173334&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=82769826365&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=398666527122&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9636182025589098182&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045879&hvtargid=pla-868405173334

You can buy it pretty much everywhere online

This briefing today regarding the lawsuit is calling all Women of colour ,

The American National Women Health Network spoke a few years about previous lawsuits brought forwards against Johnson and Johnson for disproportionate marketing of the product to women of colour.

You can watch the interview here https://www.democracynow.org/2020/6/26/johnson_johnson_talcum_products_asbestos

Meanwhile I wonder what will happen to also women buying the powder today and in the future in my street because I live in Bromley and , though the product is not disproportionately marketed , is part of the old local culture to have at home and used as a deodorant and body hydrator. 

I wonder because not a single institution informed us about this, though rumours have been heard for years, people like me, always took it as just rumours, hoping that the media or a health public  institution like the NHS would have blocked the sale of Johnson and Johnson powder 

Johnson and Johnson powder and Nivea cream hold a special heart in many families for three generations, being my family one of them, so is with a heavy heart that I say good bye to Johnson and Johnson powder talcum because still means a lot to me, reminds me of my childhood and motherhood. 

Best wishes,

Ariane Crafts Christmas Decorations : Bucilla Christmas Carnival 2

 

Here are some more Bucilla Christmas Carnival decorations executed by me. I am now due to pack more 18 soldiers, which will upload at a next opportunity. We still do not have a venue, only Charity of our choice. My sons told me to price the decorations £10 each.

Which are your favourite Christmas Crafts Fairs and which you recommend for Ariane Crafts 2021 Christmas Decorations Big Sale with all proceeds reverting to a charity of our choice?

Best wishes,

Ariane Crafts

Ariane Crafts will be selling among others Bucilla Xmas Decorations

 

We reviewed Bucilla Christmas Carnival Kit a few months ago here , but we can now confirm that our executed  decorations will be added to the Christmas Fair portfolio which proceeds will go all to the Charity of our choice.

As per execution, the assembly as well will be performed with great care and the backing will be fabric with pipping cord border to give that perfect Christmas special glitter look.

How has the Bucilla Christmas kit review helped you a few months ago and how would you rate the kits?

Just the fact that these are Christmas decorations which can last over a century is something to look at. Saves you money!

Best wishes,

Ariane Crafts
