Bagging madly
I've found a YouTube video (see here about a quick and easy method to make paper gift bags. I'll need an ungodly amount of cellophane bags for my Christmas fair wares, so I gave it a try. Admittedly, cellophane is a lot harder to handle this way than wrapping paper, but I managed 9 bags nonetheless. 7 more are due tomorrow. All in all, I have the raw materials for 64 bags - that ought to be enough, I think. At least it's faster than weaving those little paper baskets... of which I'll also have to make a lot yet. And there are only five and a half months left till the fair. *sigh*
Other than that, I did the first half of the weekly shopping today. Aside from the groceries, I also bought myself two long, lightweight summer blouses and some underwear at Kik, since they had a 30% reduction in clothing prices, assuming one had a customer card. Which I have. So, that was really a bargain.
Temperatures were up to 30°C when I came home, sweating like a pig. As soon as I finally was at home, the wind started blowing and temperatures dropped eight degrees. Speak of lousy timing, eh? They promise rain for tomorrow - let's hope the balcony can withstand it. *fingers crossed* Otherwise, I don't mind the rain; it cools down the weather a bit and besides, I'm not planning to leave the house tomorrow. I'm still very, very tired from yesterday and from today's activities, plus the heat, so staying indoors sounds nice.
