i started another one with little blue ears on it.

all inspired by yo gabba gabba

i've been crafting but i don't have a camera, hence, no updates

i've been selling lots of these on etsy!!!

2. i'll be selling with the craft mafia at the long beach second saturday art walk on the 13th!!

3. the craft mafia got accepted to sell as a group at felt club!!!   this is HUGE!!!!

4.  my friend bill is way awesome and he's helping me build a website for my business. i sent him artwork this morning and he already had a prototype online when i got home from work!

so cool! i also set up an etsy shop last week. there's nothing in it yet but i will post everything i have that i don't sell at the artwalk on the 13th. so by the 14th there should be some good treasures in there.

yeah!

i made this book with a felt cover! 

i found this lady's blog a long time ago    learndaily.blogspot.com   

and i was looking at it and remembered that i really need to start drawing everyday or i will loose my ability.  and i was also thinking of my new found philosophy; which is "DIY or die"  so instead of going out and buying a sketchbook, i stayed up all night and made one myself!  i'm pretty proud of it. but i haven't drawn anything yet......

i made this hat for kevin on tour. we were in astoria, oregon. which ended up being one of my favorite places. i don't know how we started talking about it. but i said i'd make him a hat. so we went to joann's and he picked out and bought the yarn for his hat and yarn for a hat for me. ... sweet guy!

so this is his hat for his europe trip. which he left for right when we got home. he'll be in sweden when it starts to get really cold. this will keep him warm i hope.

i have been crafting.... i swear!! i'll post some pictures soon

handmade rev!!

here are some books i made for the handmade revolution. and above are the finger puppets i posted about earlier. i sold all the cloud books, they were my favorite too! but none of the ax books or finger puppets.

i'm on tour right now with my band, and i brought the finger puppets along with me to sell. i sold two the other night!

bronto and stego

here are some stegos and something new! brontos!!! i made them for the 3rd handmade revolution at viento y agua. i made many more than what's pictured, but i only sold one. they put the crafters out back this year so it was a pretty slow event. i guess it's good cuz i won't have to work as hard for the next one, and when i get back from my trip and get around to starting my etsy shop, i will actually have stuff to put in it.

wow, i suck at updating latley, sorry. i made these for my sisters baby shower. it was a fairy tail theme. so i came up with this for the invitations. when they were all done, my mom wrote "once upon a time" on the front, and "a princess was about to be born" on the inside, along with all the shower info. i think they turned out pretty cute

today i have a much needed day off! so i'm finishing up things that have been on my to do list for quite a while. first, i made a thank you card for my great uncle ernie, (pictured above) then i finished my nephews birthday present. it'll be more than a month late but i don't think he'll care (he's only one!)

i haven't had much time for crafting lately, but a few weeks ago i was making a lot of these bear finger puppets to sell. they are like siblings. they look alike but each one is unique 

garden tales

here is some new garden stuff! the picture on top is the plant my friend rhea gave me for christmas. i think i mentioned that coincidentaly, i gave her the exact same plant! well mine isn't doing that well but today i found a little flower on it. it's blurry in the picture. i'm still trying to figure out how to work my new mac, so that's why the picture is sideways. below is a carrot from my garden. me and rhea were going to make stir-fry, so i suggested we look at how big my carrots were, they've been growing in my yard for months. we pulled one up and it was so tiny, so adorable!
