These Eyes Aren’t Mine

EDIT: I think finding some screen, a cool and funky frame, and some bright paint will at least brighten tomorrow – I shall head to the store… in the morning. I really feel like I’ve woken up looking through another person’s eyes. I’ve been down today, really down. In fact, I’ve kind of not cared […]

Sunday Projects

I worked on a few projects today other than the usual Sunday laundry. I made cookies… lots and lots of cookies… and I recreated one of my favorite winter scenes for a Santa hat decorating contest at work. I think I’ll at least have a shot.

Many Things

There are so many things I wish to do with my jewelry business in the near year. So many people are talking of branching out their business. Most of them are referring to finding multiple venues to sell on and while I might look into that, it isn’t my only focus. I want to branch […]

Waiting… not so patiently

The time off of work that I’m taking around Christmas can not come quickly enough. I’ve been trying to wait patiently for December 23 to come around, but patience just isn’t something I have right now. Work has really been wearing me out lately. I’ve worked many nights over the past four weeks and that […]

Treasury Love

It seems a little bracelet of mine has been featured in a couple of treasuries this week. I have listed a few bracelets this month, but other than that, they have not been receiving the attention from me that they used to. These treasuries have inspired me to sit down with my wire and needles […]

I’ve been busy

Okay okay, so I haven’t been paying attention to my blog in well over a week but I’ve got a good reason. This:See, I’ve been busy. Spinning is getting easier and easier for me which makes me want to do it more and more. It also helps that people buy it so there is even […]

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Well, I’m still 53 minutes away from November 27 – but I can celebrate a tad bit early… right? Etsy has already wished me happy day in both of my shops and many a Facebook friend has sent me nice, warm wishes… and what’s this I spy on my porch? A package from my bestest […]

Nudge, Nudge

Just a very friendly reminder that I will be participating in the Etsy HolidayFest November 27 – December 1. Both of my shops, IdyllHands and WoolyHands will have free first class shipping – worldwide – during that time and maybe some other special sales over the course of the 4 days. By Wednesday night, I’ll […]
