craft turkey
From all of us
To all of you,
Have a happy Thanksgiving
With eating and crafting
And Glitter galore.
May all that you are thankful for
Come around again for you
And may you be happy, and healthy and find time to craft some more!
My kids are off school today because the school is a voting building. So I’m thinking we’re going to do some cute little crafts, maybe work on some winter gifts. but I’m also dragging them out to the school at least once today, to vote.
I wonder if they’ll fight over who gets to wear the “I voted” sticker? Maybe we can do a craft with that!
Does anyone have any election themed crafts they’ve done. I’d like to see them.
Creating new content
I’m not sure what happened but spring left me with an abundance of allergies and a definite lack of time. Posting on this blog slipped right off my radar. I’m updating the site to include a FAQ page, and I’m busy creating new content, that will be up soon, promise.
I’ve got a backlog of projects to showcase and I’m hoping to get them posted soon. I’ve got a busy summer planned. Between work and play, I’m not sure how much new content I’ll be creating but I’ll try to keep you updated.
Ok, grab your calendars. Look at all those fresh sheets before you. What do you have planned? Will you have new Year’s resolutions? Will you make plans for that vacation or family reunion you’ve been putting off? The things we love to do so often never get put on the calendar. do you have special crafting days to cut, glue, and sew your way to happiness? If not, write some down now. It’s OK, you can use pencil. If you can’t put it on a specific day, make a list of the things you want to craft this year.
Crafty New Year
This year I plan on sharing some of the things I’m making, as well as the before pictures as I attempt to organize my house. With two small kids, I think I might lose more time bending down to pick things up and looking for things that have taken the baby’s interests more than I do than when sleeping. So if it’s possible to organize with little kids, I’m going to do this year, or so the resolution goes. This means I should have plenty of projects to post here. I’ll also be asking for some advice along the way.
OK, your turn. What crafty resolutions do you have for this year? Let me know and leave a comment below. (Any text links should go to links about your crafty resolutions.) I can’t wait to see them.
First off, sorry about my lack of posts. the last two months have been… trying. Between several vermin that thought my house would be much better than their outdoor nests and other homes, a cold that just keep going (I swear, it’s like the energizer bunny cold), and the fact that as a crafter, I actually need to craft some gifts for the holidays, blogging fell to the wayside.
I am looking forward to the new year. The present year got off to a bumpy start and never really got much better. In fact when a light bulb shattered near our dear child last night, my husband asked me, “When will this year be over?”
I’m looking forward to making lots of great things for myself, my home, and my kids this next year. I’m plotting how to spend my gifts cards to crafty stores even now. But this year I made many things. to remind myself this year wasn’t all bad, I want to think about my favorite crafty project.
I think mine must be the murloc ornament. It took just long enough to be proud when I was done, looked exactly like i wanted it to, and it was well received.
What about you? I must know, what was the favorite crafty project you did this year? Feel free to link to your crafty post. Leave a comment below. (BTW, spammy links that have nothing to do with crafty stuff will be deleted. I’ve been getting more and more of those lately. I appreciate that small business people want to get the word out, that’s why there’s a url under your name. Please only link in text, if it relates to the post.)
For any of you that found this blog before, you may notice, suddenly, there’s nothing here. I got hacked and had to reinstall everything. And to add insult to injury, I didn’t have anything backed up. So I’ll start re-posting what I can and add new content as soon as possible.
