    Chaotic craft area

    October 24, 2012 - By 

    I’ve been in non-stop arts and crafts mode in preparation for this Saturday’s craft sale.
    Haven’t taken a moment to clean up
    Yes, that is my clothes dryer…
    Don’t judge me, the height is perfect for a workstation
    I’m both nervous and excited.
    So much so that I’m having
    those dreams….
    you know the ones…
    like the one when you’re on your way to take a final the determines if you graduate
    and you can’t find the way…
    or you forgot to study….
    or you get there 5 minutes before the test is over.
    Seriously…

     

    I’m planning to do a test setup of my table display and make sure I have all my ducks in a row tomorrow.

    Bursting out the red and green

    October 14, 2012 - By 
    It’s not too early, is it?
    The last paper bag book (previous post) I made had more of a vintage feel.
    For this one, I went with the typical red and green Christmas theme colors.
    It’s filled with tags awaiting photos and memories.
    I found some fun embellishments in my stash of goodies for the binding as well.
    Beads, bells and trinkets give it fun texture and movement.
    I feel like I’m starting to get my mojo back. It must have been lost in the yard…all the raking must have brought her back to me.
