The days are getting shorter...

 I'm back in the crochet groove. Oh hooks, it's been awhile. I'm starting to make some beanies to get ready for the cold weather gift giving selling season. I can't wait to see how this online selling season is going to be. I know every year I get so busy that I have a hard time enjoying the holidays. This year I'm getting ready early and getting some items made to stock my online store. I have a lot of yarn at home so it's beanie time! I've set up a new store on Ebay for my crochet and knit winter accessories. I am hoping it does well this selling season.

I'm sitting here thinking about my homemade biscotti. Should I make some now? They sure look delicious! No, I'm tired from work so no baking tonight. Too much good TV tonight. I'm really liking that show How to get away with murder and Scandal. Since it's getting darker earlier, there is more tv watching and crocheting. Love it.

I'm ready to tackle all of the bearded beanie orders from my online store. I'm going to start making a bunch to get ahead this year. After Christmas, my fingers just about fall off. I'm serious.

Anyways, I promise to post at least once per week.  I will be posting a delicious recipe, a free DIY craft, and a collection on photos from the week.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend... it's homecoming week so football game tomorrow night! Both my kids are in skits for their classes.

The evenings are too short!

So i've come to realize that the evenings are just not long enough. I've been making new items for my Etsy shop while watching TV at night. Well, after I get home from my day job, cook dinner, clean up, then finally sit. That's only if no one has to go anywhere in the evening. So really, it's around 830pm. Ugh! Oh but wait... I have chili verde cooking in the crockpot for dinner! Yeah! Homemade tortillas and some mexican rice... that's what's for dinner!

 

I have so many ideas of things to make. I wish I had 10 hands! Yesterday I loaded a new set of boot cuffs. Really cute to wear to add some cuteness to your already cute boots! Just adds a little color. I'm working on a new pair today, an orange set. Perfect for the fall. I'm adding cute edgings to seal the deal. Simple ones too... stay tuned. These would make great Christmas gifts or stocking stuffers!

Of course, I am gearing up for the holiday shopping season. This beard beanie is a huge seller during the holiday's and cooler months. I've sold a couple hundred of these! Get your orders in early! I tend to be really busy now through the week of Christmas! May more items will be added to my Etsy shop! Check back often to see what's new!
