Fabric in a can

Fabrican Spray-on

Wow i'm so excited by this new technology, developed by some clever peeps at Imperial college London, and the Royal College of Art, A spray on fabric which when dried, can be removed, the shape remains, so you can wear it again, and you can even wash it.
The ideas/designs which can be created from this are running/sprinting infact, through my head, it's just mind boggling.

So now when you coin the phrase, 'wow did she pray those pants on', it might possibly be that she did.
Sadly the aerosols aren't on sale until next year, but the good news is, an aerosol will cost around £8.00. http://www.fabricanltd.com/

Just what I need - NOT


I've always wondered what it'd be like to sit on a Jury in the court of law, and often wished when friends were called up, that I too could be called.
Well that wish has come true, except now I wish I didn't have to go. yep I hear you, be careful what you wish for..
Anyway i have a two week appointment with a pending case from 4th October.
Whilst this will be a completely new experience for me, which I'm looking forward to, I could really do with-out loosing so many hours in a day just sitting in a court room,
I'm also a little worried about the nature of the case, I'm kind of squeamish, so any nasty pictures or crime is going to make me feel ill, so I'm praying it's a high profile celebrity thing, hehe.

Anyway, this will mean my shop will be a ' go slow ' zone for this time period, I'm hoping to still keep it open, but to have a longer time period for made to order items.

Almost there

Just some finishing touches, buttons and neatening up to do. Mind you this image is showing the shade a lot brighter than the actual real life shade, which is much more like the swatch below.
