crazy chick...

this little girl likes to keep us on our toes.
we joked from the beginning that she set the "tone" for the house....and how right we were!
she has now figured out how to unlock my cell phone and call 9-1-1.
never a dull moment. :D

happy holidays...



So.. is anyone else listening to Christmas music yet? I have been pumpin' Harry for the Holidays for almost a month now. Don't judge me. :)

This got me thinking..... I have always (past few years anyway) wanted one of these vintage ornament wreaths -


or maybe its just that i want to be cool like Mary. :D
either way I found a DIY here on how to make one. If i get my stuff together and remember to take pictures as I go I'll post my progress here.

drum roll please....

Here are a few new fabrics for purses!
At first I was hesitant to buy them because they seemed a little "springy" but then I thought...
everyone can use something cheery during the winter!

For the past few days I have been playing with the Adobe CS4 and getting photos ready to update my etsy store. I forgot how much work that was/is. Check it out over the next few days - lots of goodies uploaded.

Fun stuff...

For the past two weeks I have been sewing like a mad woman for the Strange Folk Festival! like a crazy person! like someone jacked up on coffee all. day. long! yep. that's me - the crazy mom that is either falling asleep while talking to someone on the playground or bugged out and spewing run-on sentences at 90mph.

At the show this year I will have a bunch of purses again along with some felt goodies and jewelry!!

Here is a sneak peak to the purses that i have made so far -

And who doesn't love felt food?
my good buddy, Mary, made these delectable sandwiches for the show along with pop tarts, strawberries, noodles & meatballs, and doughnuts!!!

and lets not forget Beth Williams amazing jewelry!!

Stop by this weekend and check out the goodies in my booth along with Sweet Petunia Clothing next to us!!
