Isn't it funny how one little idea can open the door to more and more?
My last post was about developing a calendar for events in NI......but this quickly led on to developing a website with an event calendar that anyone accessing it could be add events to. I have to admit here that i have never developed a website before so it was a huge learning curve for me!
I used the moonfruit site for this as i had heard some good things about it. It was hard to figure out how to do a lot of the adjustments i have to say, but once i got to grips with it i was able to make a site i was happy with. Again, the site started off as one thing and then led to another - originally it was for Northern Ireland only, but i soon extended it to include 2 different calendars so the site would cover all of Ireland.
The site as it stands at the minute can be viewed here: crafteventsireland. I say at the minute because I am pretty sure it will develop a bit more as time goes on!
Once i got the web development bug, i also thought it was time to design my own craft website - I really enjoyed playing around with the software and came up with a site i'm pretty happy with now. The brand new Funky Junk Website can now be viewed at www.funkyjunkcrafts.com
I have a feeling thats not going to be the end of my web designing and development.........all sorts of ideas are whizzing around in that strange place i dare to call a mind :D
