I think I am caught up for the moment. I’m sure I’ll come up with something I forgot. Hopefully I keep up this time. I’ll put it on my to-do list 🙂
Halloween 2022 Steampunk
OK, here is everything all put together. I did my foundation make-up pale on purpose. It didn’t work the way I was hoping. But it was pretty cool
Steampunk Hat
I made the hat that went with the steampunk theme I decided on for Halloween. The first issue was printing the pattern. I printed it, and cut out the pieces of paper, laid them out on the EVA foam, cut that, and started to put it together. It was incredibly small. It fit in the…
Elf Hat
I made this for Christmas 2022. Everyone makes Santa hats, so I made an elf hat. It was cute, but I think I will change the bell next time. It gave me a headache. It banged on the back of the hat with every step, and the sound of the bell wasn’t what I was…
Baby Stuff
I have started crocheting again. Baby layettes. I found a pattern I really enjoy stitching, and am looking forward to selling these. It still gets complicated because of the heat down here making my hands sweat. The yarn sticks to my hands, and I can’t see selling something with my sweat all over it. The…
Bead Organization
I bought a new type of bead organizer. I think I like it. I got all my beads organized, but I haven’t made anything with beads since then. Not my best move. I will get back to it soon. I realized I can’t sell these projects on Etsy, so I got discouraged and stopped stitching…
Coming Projects
I have a few things in mind coming up. There was a Christmas window project on the street where I work. I made a fabulous window. I didn’t win, or place. The one thing I saw that all the windows had in common was that they used their product in the window. It is hard…
Steampunk Boots
I decided on a steampunk theme for my Halloween costume last year. I bought most of the parts to it but made my hat and decorated the boots. I love what I did I will post a picture when I remember how to resize it. Craziness I went to a local donation store and got…
Trying Something New
It isn’t a new craft, it is just going to the next level. Cross-Stitch…I love it, I would love to sell the things I make on Etsy. Unfortunately, everything I make is from someone else’s pattern. Etsy has been putting its foot down about selling trademarked and copyrighted items. Many sellers have been selling patterns…
Muddy Dash 2023
I’m getting ready for another mudrun. I am doing the Muddy Dash in October. I signed up 3 months ago, and last month I got 2 emails about picking up my packet. Looks like I signed up right after the last one 🙁 I gave the other one to Jonathon I. I was talking about…
