dreamaid fame

Oooohhhhhhhhhhhh exciting news for me today, one of my rings is featured on the front page of dreamaid. So is my short pudgy hand which is modelling the ring, it was a bit of a shock to see it on there today. I received a message from friend and fellow dreamaider Chrissy saying that I was on the front page so I rushed over to see it and yep there was my hand and ring wooohoooooooooo.
My famous hand
I hope my hand doesn't get full of itself and bigheaded (or should that be bighanded???) now thats its famous. I'm considering getting it insured as per Moe's suggestion lol.  Lets hope someone sees it and wants to buy it now, that's the ring not my hand.

I finished my other mans slipper yesterday and will be sending them off to my friends hubby Al tomorrow I named them Mr tincatoes at first but Tinca (aka Eily) changed the name to Alcatoes today which I know is daft of us to name a pair of slippers but eh whats wrong with being a bit daft every now and then eh.

Finished Alcatoes
Right I'm off to knit and watch tv now, thats if my famous left hand can be persuaded to do something so menial now lol.  Its goodnight from and its goodnight from the hand. Goodnight

Bag lady

I've just finished setting up my dreamaid shop with a few of the bags I've made for sale. I've been thinking of doing this for a while but only just tonight plucked up the courage to get on with it. I've only got 4 bags on so far but as time goes by I will add more bags and maybe some of my knitting and jewellery too.
As is typical for me and things computer related I didn't find it totally smooth running, I nearly ended up with two shops!!!!
Once I'd filled in my username, password etc it said my username was invalid. The only thing hubby and I could think was wrong was I had a space in it so I removed it and then clicked on the button to proceed again. This time I ended up on a blank page?????.
I thought ,well maybe it just takes a while to load, so I sat there for a few minutes....  but no... still blank.....(just like my mind I hear you say you cheeky things lol)  I tried clicking on the refresh button and got 'this webpage has expired'. Whoops not what I wanted either, so what now ?
Next I tried clicking the back button and was taken to the registration page again so I clicked to input my details again and this time it came up saying 'username already exists', 
Thats funny I thought, imagine two people wanting the name andiesaccessories, luckily at the same time I noticed at the top of the page it had options for me to click on for my account and log off.
I wondered if it had actually registered me when I was on the blank page and that andiesaccessories was mine, so I clicked on my account to see and yes there I was!! WAYHEY I'd done it and not realised. 
The first bag I tried to add didnt go well as I ended up losing it, I don't know how, but just as I was about to move onto adding photos I noticed a spelling mistake in the description and tried to click in the description box to alter the spelling but I ended up with the page dissapearing again. I must have taken too long or clicked on something I shouldn't to make it dissapear..
I quickly added the details again, I struggled to think of ways to describe them but eventually I had four bags added with photos Wooohooooooo
So now I am on another website and I've managed to do it by myself too, ok I had a few false starts but I managed it Go Annie Go Annie Go Annie (little victory dance from me lol.
