My real passion...

For those who know me well, know that my real passion is fabric & sewing. I hoard fabric. I dream fabric. I buy fabric that I will never cut because it is too beautiful. One of my favorite things to sew are bags. Unfortunately, being a working mom to 5 children (6, if you count my son's best friend that has been living with us since February), running around to piano lessons, football practice and cheer practice, I barely have time to sit and sew.

Hmmm, just looking at these bags that I have made, makes me want to go pull out the fabric and start sewing. Sadly, I am just too tired tonight. So, maybe tonight I will dream an idea for a new bag...or maybe a necklace....

Good night and sweet dreams.



A Better View...

I had posted these boots earlier, out of pure excitement of how cute they were. The picture was terrible! I have never claimed to be a photographer, that is for sure! Here is a much better photo of these adorable boots!

The black glitter boots have so much bling. And, you can't help but smile when you look at these beauties! Happy Tuesday!

Give Thanks!

Oh my goodness...I could not wait to show this off! These blocks turned out really cute, of course, much better in person! Come to the October workshop and you can see how cute yourself! :)

Altered Composition Book~

Look how sweet this altered composition book is! I can think of 100 possibilities for this little gem. It would work great for a gift for sisters, friends, mothers, grandmothers, co-workers and teachers! Really, the list is endless. This would look great on any desk!

Busy week ahead! Wishing everyone a happy Monday!

Thanks Betsy!

A good friend of mine, Betsy, came over today and we had a great visit. She has decided to sell the line of food storage called Shelf Reliance. Betsy came over so she could teach me a little bit about this line of food storage. I highly recommend this food! If anyone has the desire to start their food storage, or wants to add to their food storage, you need to get in touch with Betsy, you can email her HERE. She would be happy to answer any questions you may have!

Well, on her way out, of course I had to show her some of the past kits and upcoming kits that we have available at Crafty Girls. Betsy went right for the Halloween Countdown Kit..look how stinking cute her countdown kit turned out...

Great job Betsy! Love it!

There are still 4 of these kits available if anyone is interested!

Couldn't Stop With October!

I had so much fun making up the October Tag Frame kit, that I went a step or two further...I made up the November and December Tag Frame kits today ~ and they turned out great!

Each of these kits will include the frame and everything you will need to make these great tag frames. The frames are 6x12 inches and would make a great addition to your holiday decorating! Have a great weekend!

Great Christmas Gift idea!

Who doesn't love calendars??? We have a great friend that just opened an ETSY site to sell her calendars. Her name is Sharon and she does some awesome work.

For those of you at the September crop, you will notice that her kit was available there. We just love her work. She has just opened an ETSY site called Worleybird Designs, so check it out! Remember, Christmas is right around the corner!
