Happy New Year!


My wish for you is for a Happy & Healthy 2011 everyone!  2010 has been a year filled with amazing joy and the deepest saddness I've ever felt and more stess than I thought I could handle sometimes.  It's hard for me to say I'll be happy to have 2010 behind me since some parts of it were amazing and wonderful others well you know....  I hope 2011 is a good one for everyone!  Wow how time flies!!!

Happy Holidays!

Happy Holidays to all of you out there!  Speaking of all of you out there, I've added a counter on my page to count the hits on here, there seem to be a lot of you reading this, but where are the comments :(????  I am feeling like NO ONE (except a few faithful friends, you know who you are, thanks so much) is out there reading this but my counter says otherwise.  Please let me know your there by leaving a comment.  I've had a couple comments lately that I can't read because they're in another language, is there a program on here that changes comments to english???  Not sure, I wish there was though.  I've been told by a few of my customers at craft shows that they read this, please if you are reading will you let me know.  I'm trying to decide if it's worth it or not to me to keep posting. 
Hope your all having a stress free weekend before the BIG holiday weekend.  Take care!

Three "NEW" pairs of recycled wool mittens done!

Three "NEW" pairs of recycled wool mittens done yesterday and listed on my Etsy page   I may have to make myself a pair of these lavendar an green mittens.  While I was making these it occured to me that they would match my down coat perfectly and I do need a pair of mittens to go with that coat, so I guess I better get busy on them since we got 5  inches of new snow on the ground and it is really cold here!  It's looking like we will have a white Christmas here this year.  That isn't a big deal for me having a white Christmas but I know it is for a lot of people.  I grew up in Florida so snow doesn't represent Christmas for me.  Lots of fun events to go to in the next few days so I'll be out and about in this winter wonderland of ours!  Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

They sold so FAST!!!

I finished these two pairs of recycled wool mittens up on Tuesday night, love the way they turned out, then I listed them on Wednesday mid morning and both were sold within a couple hours.  I sent a note to my email list that I was listing them and to hurry to look since they would probably sell fast and they did so sorry if you were one of them that was interested.  I promise I'll make more starting tomorrow.  I also sent a doll to New Zealand today, Merry Ann, fun, she has a long journey ahead of her!  Cyber Monday and Black Friday were a major bummer no action, zippo for me on my Etsy page.  So I hope my recent sales are a sign things will pick up for me.  I plan to be working on alot of great new things before Christmas.  The ideas are going round and round in my head!  Byeeeee now!
