Happy Holidays!

vladstudio.comWhere Snowflakes Are Born by vladstudio.com

December has gotten so, so hectic … haven’t been able to keep up with blogging much.  I’m taking some time off, hope to be back mid-January with some updates.  I have lots of new things in store for the coming year.

Over at Flickr you can see a new crochet necklace I’ve been working on, have taught it as a workshop during December – original Tamdoll pattern coming soon. 

Wishing good health and happy holidays to you all!

World’s Largest Pom Pom?

Chanukah has begun, Christmas is a few days away and I’m still creating gifts for friends and family.  Another year without family photo cards, can’t seem to get my act together on that one.  But I did make the world’s largest pom pom.

To go on top of a special hat, hope their neck is strong enough to hold that up.

Happy Holidays!

Bags in Limbo

Just this week I’ve been cleaning out closets and shelves and discovered a few bags that haven’t sold, and aren’t listed anywhere for sale!  Then, in yesterday’s email came a Photojojo Time Capsule, and there they were!  The top 2 are still available if anyone is interested, leave a message here, on FaceBook, or email me.  I’d love to give these a new home – giving me more room to work on some new creations!!!

Fire & Ice

Playing in the snow Treasury

How I wish it would snow already!!  It’s been unseasonably warm here in New England, I can’t really believe I haven’t taken my winter coat out of the closet yet.  (Remind me of this when I lose power again because of a big storm.)  In the meantime, I can dream about cooler weather with beautiful icy collections like this Treasury by Sara Beth of MagnoliaSurprise.

On the other end of the spectrum, here’s a fiery one by Margaret of SplendidLittleStars.

EtsyChai Team Delights!

Chanukah begins on December 20th, and that’s just around the corner!  The EtsyChai team has been busy promoting – you can read all about the group on the team blog and check out these beautiful treasuries.  In case you’re not familiar with what a Treasury is, they’re member-curated collections of items.  Some are centered around a theme, others around a color or idea.  Sometimes they’ll appear on the front page of Etsy & when that does, it’s pretty exciting.  You can click them, leave a comment or click-through and visit each individual members shop.  There’s something for everyone!

Bold with Black & White

I love how black & white looks against bright colors, so here’s a treasury I compiled from members of the Blogging Business Artisans Etsy Team.  Click & Enjoy their creativity!
