Packy McPackertons

I packed up much of my crafty area stuff tonight. I almost packed my beads and yarn – but I couldn’t. Those will stay out until just before we start moving (which is only in a week). One advantage to moving your crafting area is you really get rid of a bunch of junk. I […]

Vacation

In 2.5 days I’ll be hitting the road with My Sweet Boy for a trip down South to The Big Easy. I’ll return Monday evening (July 14). You are all more than welcome to buy the goodies in my shop and contribute to my moving back to town fund but all items will not ship […]

Shop Update this weekend

I’ll be updated my shop with three new versions of one of my newest necklace designs, “Falling Leaves”. I love making this necklace as it allows me to use some of my fancier beads that don’t really fit into my bracelets. I could make them all day, unfortunately, I’m out of leaf charms. Until I […]

Stuff for the new place

It’s official. The Sweet Boy and I (oh, and the Schmoo cat) move August 1 into the cutest Bungalow in town (pictured in a previous post). I was overly concerned that we would not be chosen since quite a few people were looking at the place. I had already come to the conclusion that it […]

And the winner is…

The winning name for my necklace is “Tuscany” given to me by Sew Bettie at Craft Yourself Rich. I think it’s perfect since the stones in the necklace have that rustic, countryside look. I loved all of the names – some of them made me want to go for walks at night or in the […]

Stuff

One should never have this many shoes…Or this many clothes (these are the ones in “storage” – not the ones I wear on a usual basis).I spent the bulk of this afternoon cleaning out my clothes and shoes in my closet and in my dresser. Just the hope of moving in a month has me […]

A Call for Help

Help! I cannot come up with a name for the necklaces you see above. They are a deep red and a light, mojito green on an antiqued brass chain and I just can’t come up with something appropriate. Here’s where I need your help. I’ll be giving away one of these necklaces to whoever can […]

SALE

This weekend I’m having a big sale on many of my bracelets at Idyll Hands. Don’t miss out on the chance to get a bracelet for a discounted price! I’m cleaning out my inventory to get ready for some late summer/fall items so come take advantage of my lower prices.

One Upon a Time…

Once upon a time there was a hidden street. Upon that hidden street were a few of the cutest, best kept bungalows in Fayetteville. One of those houses just happened to be up for rent when a young, beautiful crafter laid her eyes upon it in a Craigslist ad. This is a story of her […]
