I love when my house is clean. I am 10xs more productive when my surrounds are not in complete chaos. Having said that I'd love to catch you guys up on whats been going on lately.
In my last post you read that I had finally got around to posting my handmade items online for sale. The response I received was OVERWHELMING! I still can't believe how many people have been commenting on my items and requesting projects. This change of pace coupled with all the positive feedback has really lit a fire under me.
Check out what I've been up to!
This is a large hairbow I crocheted a few days ago. There's been A LOT of interest in these little guys. Since I had never actually got around to making one before I gladly accepted the challenge.
Of course, after I made the large hairbow I HAD to make a smaller one. Love this hairbow/headband combo so much. Can't wait to find the time to make many more!
Here we have two of my little hairbows that will be attached to alligator clips. PERFECT for accessorizing any outfit. I fully intend to make these cute little guys in about a million different colors.
The hat that I've been working on this week is inspired by Sarah from RepeatCrafterMe.com . It is desiged to look like a "Minnie Mouse" Hat. As you can see here, all I've got left is a set of ears!
The BIG project of the month is "The Smurf Project 2012"!
My mother has asked my sister and I to create 30 of these little guys (although the pattern I'm working off of currently doesn't make such little guys). My sister is taking care of making all the "Smurfette" dolls and I'm in charge of "Papa Smurf" and a simple boy smurf. Pictured here you can see I've finished the head, nose, eyes, and one ear. Last night I was able to finish the other ear and the body. As the project comes along I can see where I need to make a few changes to make this guys a little smaller. Deadline is before the end of September. Guess I better get busy!
Alright! Well that's all for now. Check back often for more updates.
