Believe in the Power of Beautiful Stuff

Wow, it’s been months and I have a whole list of excuses as to why I haven’t posted.

I could list them off for you but the main one was that I really wanted to focus on a complete site redo and well, you can tell that didn’t happen. Time passed, life happened and that goal sort of slipped away. Of course the  goal of this blog is to provide good content but I really wanted a better looking site. Ah well, not happening at this moment. Hopefully in the future, sooner than later.

I also need to stress that I never, ever stop crafting. I will always have one project that isn’t completed and now I have a great backlog of posts to write about.

For example:

1. In the month of May I threw a wedding shower and a baby shower for two of my closest friends. I made similar favors for both; solid bubble bath in the shape of cupcakes. They turned out a lot better than I had hoped! I’ll share my sources for the recipes and do a complete tutorial.

2. My husband and I are about to complete a total kitchen makeover and I have a lot of great before and after photos. I want all of your input regarding decorating!

3. I’ve started working on the Babette Blanket that I’ve talked about before. This is an amazing project; it’s super easy as long as you can keep at it. The intial investment was a little daunting for me, I purchased 17 skeins of different colors.

4. I’m in the middle of 2 quilts! One is pretty close to getting it’s binding!

5. Speaking of quilts, I just finished a Mini Art Quilt on Craftster. I loved what I gave and loved what I received.

6. I dove into the world of lino-cutting. So fun!

Ok, that’s all for now. I just wanted to reach out and say, “Hey, I’m still around and I’ll try better.”
