Mason Jars Galore!

I am all of a sudden obsessed with Mason Jars. I think it stems from my longing of wanting to can. I have wanted to make jellies and pickled veggies for so long but have never invested myself. Maybe when life settles down but for now why not craft the heck out of them!?

Some covered in yarn, some in glass paint…a lot empty waiting while I want around the studio looking at my stock of crafty things…but what fun it is. Holding crochet hooks and flowers; Not much of a purpose but they sure do make me happy!

Oh Me Oh My!

Bored, I went on Ravelry and discovered all these wonderful shawls and then I noticed that all of them were from the new Knitscene Accessories. On the QT, I have never bought a knitting or crochet magazine, but I might have to get this one! 

I even have the most perfect yarn….

Dear Kindle,

You know me so well….

The Colors of my Mothers Day

Amigurumi Tree

Remind me the next time I decide I have a lull in my project bag to pick something a little more daunting! I love my little tree…all 36 individual pieces. I made my tree out of Berroco Comfort because I have an immediate gratification problem and it's what I happened to have in my stash. After finishing I think it would have been better if it were made out of wool so I could block the leaves. Mine tend to curl in the acrylic. No biggie, I love it anyway and it was a great little project!

CRAFT YOUR STASH!

Craft Your Stash is coming up!
We have some pretty sweet vendors coming like Spinster Sisters, The Lemonade Shop, word letterpress, chloe and me, Tactile Studios, Siouxsiequeue's, Simple Sundries, Art by Krista, It's About 3:16, BustlePacks and more….
We will have something fun for the kiddos, The Denver Pie/Cupcake Truck and hopefully really close to the carriage rides.

Hope to see you there!

New Look!

So... I changed the layout of my blog. Needed something new, something that would bring me back and make me want to blog to my little hearts content.
I thought about using the photo that we took of my husband sleeping *after* we applied blue eyeshadow, but somehow I don't think that would help is social footprint.
So it may change again and may not….change is good right? :)

Sheldon Cooper

No surprise here that we watch a lot of The Big Bang Theory in our house. Perhaps it is our sense of humor or perhaps it's because a certain 8 year old has a lot of the same characteristics of a Mr. Sheldon Cooper. She dislikes being called "Little Sheldon Cooper" however, even though she says that from her spot on the couch. Even when making the hat below, it later unknowingly resembles Sheldon's same winter hat. Bazinga!

Made of Cascade Yarn's Baby Alpaca Chunky. One skein EXACTLY!
