To Do List...

So many things to do, so little time.

How many times have you heard someone say that? Well, you just heard it again. I have started my list. It gets longer by the day! Sewing projects to finish, purses to make for up coming shows. Special orders to get done! Trips to the post office, supply runs twice a week. It can get hectic.

I want to read a book. I have a stack next to the bed. I have craft show applications to fill out, mail and more to look for online. My hand hurts from filling those out! I have fabric to organize and fabric to cut for the LIST of things I want to get made. A stack of ideas I need to bring to life. I test out looks and ideas I have to make a purse or accessory better. To make life better!

It never ends. (That Lamb Chop song is running through my head now.)

I want to try new crafts. Not that using the glue gun isn't fun, but I need to let my fingers heal. WOWZA!!

Now that I have started dying fabric for certain projects, I have more things I want to dye and sew together! Right now I am on the sewing part of my list, and I will be sewing until the list is done and getting ready for next year!

New year, new beginnings

With 2013 gone and the new year upon us. I look back at the wonderful year I had.

I had 4 new craft shows I attended, along with all my usual local shows. I added new purses to my collection as well as, new display pieces.





My first ever garage sale find, was an old rack for baskets. Perfect for my purses!


Made a tower display from wire cubes. Instant towel rack! I also hung my casserole carriers and Shanel hip clip on it too!



I added more 3M command hooks to my tool box. And found the perfect banner from Whimsical Zee! I has been a great addition to my raft show set up.





 I got a new 6' table and  a 6' bench. Stacking and covering I an display my items at eye level. Its very sharp!



New purses, to tickle anyone's fancy! More of a variety too. They are too fun!




My last show of the year, was competing with Mother Nature, she dumped the area with a ton of snow! I made it to the venue, got set up. Had a great time, then went home!


2013 had many memories to look back on, improve on, and share over and over!
I look forward to the creative year to come!
