Bribery will get you everywhere!

I just had to share this with everyone. I have two little boys. Because I only have boys, I love to make little girl things, like this apron. I was taking pictures of it to post in my etsy shop and really wanted to show what it looked like on a little one. Unfortunately, there aren't any little girls around so I had to bribe my little boy to wear this for me. A few pounds of sugar later, I did manage to get some shots that worked.

While I was on a roll, I thought maybe I could get him to model with this purse as well. He will hate me someday! LOL!

Here is to a great New Year

I am looking forward to the new year and all of the opportunities that await. I have some great things in store for my etsy shop and am just waiting for the holidays to wind down before I start.

I am also looking forward to all of the changes in my garden as the winter takes full hold of us and we look forward to spring. I love the way it looks through each season and find the beauty in the frozen ground, the structure of the tree branches, and the remnants of fall jack o' lanterns just waiting to be turned over for great spring compost.

Red Flowered Hobo Bag

I have gotten alot of interest from this bag. I really like the way it lays on my shoulder when I carry it. I am a mom and as much as I love to try to be organized, everything always ends up just being "thrown" into my bag. This bag is my favorite for that reason. There is no pressure to be organized.

Curious Bird and the Broken Branch

So I was drawing with my children and came up with this design. It has now become my signature design and curious bird has become a regular in my shop. I love the contrast of the brown against the sky blue and have really enjoyed working with wool felt.

Hmmm

Ok, so I finally learned what a blog was and got up the courage to start one. Be patient with me while I figure this out.
