I'm Helen. I'm a wife and mom and I work from home as a telephone advice nurse. 'Triage' is from a french word meaning 'to sort'.
In nursing, it means to determine the level of urgency of care needed- so I'm a sorter of sorts:-)
In my free time, I like to bake and do home projects, like painting (walls, not pictures) My current passion is making handmade soaps and other bath and body goodies.
New Juicy Wallet
I made a new Juicy wallet tonight- trying it out with Capri Sun pouches. I hadn’t made one yet because don’t get very many of these (They are purchased in the US because I noticed there is no French labelling on them) and it takes 10 pouches to make each wallet.
I should make a bunch more wallets tomorrow because they seemed to be my ‘hot’ item at last Saturday’s craft fair, and I’ve got 2 more fairs this weekend. One requires me to price and inventory tag all of my items because they have a central cash. Not looking forward to doing that, but Jon will help me with a spread sheet, etc.
Lots more to get ready for this weekend, and I just don’t feel like doing any more tonight. Jon will be gone volunteering at Free Geek tomorrow and then off to class in the evening, so hopefully I will get things done while I’m without the car at home.

your bags are adorable! I got the link from Carmen at Tomika’s Twists I think. She did a video and showed your bag! What a cute idea! I stand in awe at you girls with such crafty talent! A gift I was not given
Anyway, I just ordered the shopping, beach bag, and can’t wait to see it in person! With 6 kids, we are always needing a bag for something, and this looks like it might be nice for cold stuff at the market too!
Very Clever! Thank you!
