Deluxe Wrap-up

OMG friends, let me just say that I am sooo overwhelmed by what a success Deluxe was! Thank you to everyone who came out and supported all of our crafty endeavors! Our booth was decked out in pink loveliness and the glitter door was still a hit.

You can find more pictures on my flickr set: craft shows

We sold an assortment of all kinds of things, but my favorite items were the coffee cardis and the crocheted hair bows. I was so glad I decided to make those. They started out as what am I going to do with all these buttons and hair clips? And everyone knows I always have way too much yarn!

Don't those shutters I bought on a whim at an estate sale work perfectly for hair clip holders? I can thank Jenny for that idea. She's a thinker that one.

While I sold out of a lot of things, I have a lot of stock left so I am planning on starting up my etsy shop again with the New Year. There's really no point in spending hours making things if they are just going to set in my studio until the next show.

I also had some time to do a little shopping...

I got this adorable fawn ring from  Lollywood.

And this robot photo/painting from Vandroid.

We are totally in love with her artwork right now. The retro robots are something we both enjoy so we decided to get another piece from her for our living room.

All-in-all it was a fantastic day! And I was tuckered out afterwards. Bella was too apparently, even though she had no reason to be.

Today in OKC

I'm going to stop by the Plaza, but I won't be able to stay long because I'll be painting my house!!!

This is the picture from the listing. I'll take actual pictures while I'm there today. The trees are full and pretty right now. Today is painting day. I'll also share paint colors as well.

Cupcake Hats Going strong

I went to ravelry to check out my Have a cupcake hat stats, and I discovered two hats on the project page that weren't mine.  Have a looksie... They are sooo cute! I am very impressed with the different color choices. When I wrote the pattern I envisioned a bunch of different amazingly unique hats and that is what is happening. Keep it up people!

For those of you around Oklahoma City. I will be at Live on the Plaza this Friday night selling yarn and jewelry and whatnot. I'm excited, it is always a fun event with good music and great handmade goods to buy.

The new job is going great! I really love it. It is very stressful at times, but I know I will get my timing down and things will get much easier.

School may kick my butt this year. I have so much on my plate and I alwasy let that be at the bottom of my list. Perhaps I should move it up this year?

Oops I must go... Bella just woke up. Time for mommy to put on pants and let her out. I hate mornings. Where is my coffee?
