Accessories

I have made a ton of headbands, ponytail holders, and clips. A few are on Etsy. Some are still on my old etsy. I have more to put up. Like I said I made a ton.
 My daughter has been a wonderful model for me. I originally started making them for her. She loves them. For some reason my husband frowns at the idea of using our son as the model for the baby headbands. ; )


Adding to Etsy

Busy busy. I've been adding as much as I can to my Etsy. I have a project in my brain I would like to start on today and I have gifts to make. Let the Christmas crazy time begin.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Since I am new to this whole thing I wanted to start off on the right foot. I am not making a blog and selling my art to bring attention to myself or feel like I am some awesome artist. I am not and I have very little interest in fame. Really I would love to sit in a little cottage all day unnoticed sewing  and pretending the world isn't so big and broke but, somehow I don't think being a hermit is the most responsible option for me.  On this Thanksgiving I am truly thankful to be blessed with the gifts I have. All the good I can do is from God. I cannot make one pretty little stitch with out Him. I love to create. The goal is to help support myself, my family, my community, and my world by doing what I love.  I think I can bring just a little bit of wholesome beauty to our world but really all I am doing is reflecting the beauty that is already there. This is why I share.
