A week in the Crypt


Well it has been a busy week for me! With the opening of the webstore, I have had a flood of custom orders and sales come through and I'm loving every minute of it!

I still have a full time 40 hour a week job doing accounts for a large textile hire company in Brisbane. Its a stressful and demanding role, and I'm sure most people would think I'm mad when I say I go home at night to work on my own business!

I say that my day really begins at 4:30pm when I get home from my day job. I usually come home, have a quick snack and then dive into work in my craft room (or Crypt as I like to think of it)


I'm lucky that Mr Crypt is very supportive of me and he puts up with me running out at various stages of the night with half done projects in my hands saying "Does this look nice?" Or "What about this colour combo?"

For Xmas he bought me a framed Frankenstein film cell plaque which I have hanging in my craft room (Crypt) I like to think that I am my own version of Dr Frankenstein creating things late into the night. Except y'know my creations are bows, and not big men.

(Remember the creature in the story Frankenstein had no name, the true monster in that story was Dr Frankenstein for trying to re-create man. The creature Boris Karloff played is referred to as Frankensteins monster, or the monster)


Its one of my favourites I just had to jam that literary reference in there. :)

Crypt Creations Webstore now open

My website is now open!

 Took me ages but it's very gratifying to go look at it and think "Sheina, you did this all by yourself" And considering I'm not too great with techhy stuff, I am mighty proud of myself. :)

I still have a lot more stock to list but that's what this weekend will be devoted to!

Now Mr Baroque Bat has a place to live on the webstore:
