    T Tuesday: Monday evening edition

    I figured I’d post a bit early since tomorrow I’ll be busy with my final craft sale before Christmas. My mom says that the people in her complex are really excited about it, so I’m very optimistic for a good turn out.

    Over the weekend I decided to make another new crafty item just perfect to share on T Tuesday.

    Aren’t they cute!?!  This last one I assume would have been a votive candle holder. I’m in love with the pink velvet on it. I’m going to have to make a tea cup one with the pink velvet for myself. I just need to find the right cup.

    I put a bit of steel wool inside the batting so the pins get sharpened with use.  I used E6000 to glue the cup to saucer; those babies aren’t going anywhere.

    I’m off to load up my van to be ready for the morning.

    After my endless talk about creating a craft sale inventory, I’d be remiss if I didn’t tell you about the event last Saturday. craft sale 2014It started out really slow…I was genuinely getting worried….but then it picked up. I sold quite a bit and got such wonderful comments. Little J helped me for the first couple hours and then left with my in-laws.

    One more sale on Thursday! I’m really excited for this one. Last year was great, so I’m hopeful that with much better weather this year (no blizzard) it will be even more successful.

    I’m off to vote, errands and knitting…for the first time in ages for the knitting. Hope I remember how. 😉
