I have started a couple of new craft projects, and I will post some pictures here and there. I started working on my crochet fashion doll clothes and I have started a PC (plastic canvas) project. I still have a XS (cross-stitch) mermaid that I am working on, too. I crochet period clothes for 11…
Hot glue guns
I got a hot glue gun a few months ago for a reason that escapes me right now. I got a cheap one because I wasn’t sure how much use it would get, and since I can’t remember why I got it, it didn’t get much use. I remember now!! It’s been a year, because…
Craft Fair Results
OK, I had my craft fair last weekend. Things were flying off the table…literally 🙁 I was chasing down my wares or laying across my table the whole time. There were 20 – 25 mph winds during the fair. One of the other vendors had their tent blow into the tree next to them. I…
Spooky Candles
I saw some spooky candles on the internet somewhere, then forgot all about them. My husband showed them to me and renewed my interest. I started looking around and found out that they should be really easy to make. I’m going to walk you through the process. Below are the first and second attempts. My…
What craziness is next?
We have lived in the same apartment for 9 1/2 years. Sometime in the last year or so there was a shake-up with the property management company, and we now have a completely different one with the same property owner. I don’t think the new management knows what they are doing. I am not comfortable…
P90X
I started doing P90X again today. It was a good first workout, but I didn’t do the ab part yet. I’ll do it this evening. The main workout is an hour long and I’m doing it before work, so the extra 16 minutes is the difference between getting up at 6 instead of 6:30. My…
Sherry’s Creations
My craft site is up and running. I am still working on descriptions and various other things that are needed to make it look better, but it has products on it and a way to buy them online. I’m just putting up a few things at a time, trying not to overwhelm myself. I get…
How I Deal with Loss
I don’t deal with loss very well, I am very fortunate to have most of my family members still around me. I have definitely lost what feels like more than my fair share of fur family members, and I lost one more this week. When we moved here, we had lost 10 cats in 5…
Craft Fair Update
I’ve done it!! I signed up…and paid for my first craft fair! I know you’re saying, come on, Sherry, you’ve done this before. Actually, I haven’t. I’ve sold at flea markets, and even put a couple of things out at a local auction 20 years ago. I’ve never signed up for a craft fair. October…
Who Am I?
Sometimes I get lost in my head. I have so many sides of me? Which one is the real me? The caring person that tries to take care of everyone? (I did home care for 5 years) The bitch that is so strict in how she needs things to be? (OCD) Happy-go-lucky friend to everyone?…
