I have a few things in mind after going shopping, but I don't have a fully developed game plan yet. I feel better, though!

I just found the best and cutest little something actually IN TOWN! Unbelievable   It is getting ready for me to do something with it....
now back to my crafty books and magazines for inspiration...and maybe a pattern

[WYOKrista]

oh wow,  I am in the "craftzone" just taking a break to re-hydrate. ok, back to the craft lab 

[xladyluckx]

I pulled out all my books this week too, working on the magazines now (outside, taking a break to hydrate etc. too!)...i just went through one that had EXACTLY what i wanted for a pattern for this uh, thing...LOL! Come hang out with me WYOKrista!!!!

Is this fun or what?!?! I am enjoying the challenge of this swap, as most things i am seeing for inspiration are flat and the fun is taking it and turning it into something dimensional and tangible.

How is everyone else coming along? woo! woo!

[kittykill]

I have 3 ideas going on right now. One is my normal M.O. but the other two hopefully will be awesome. I pulled out all of my books and have been buying all the Halloween magazines out there.

I have 2 projects I'm doing for sure and am working a little on each one of those. Neither are entirely fleshed out, so I'm kind of figuring them out as I go along, but I have the big picture in mind and I can already see how cool they're gonna be. I have 2 other projects on the table, too. One of those I have the base object ready to be vinta-ween-ified as soon as I realize how to do it, and, as for the other, I am not sure if I will even be able to find what I need to make it. I think I've got a pretty good handle on things, though. My swap partner had such great answers for the questions I sent her, which helps a lot.

my large is done, whew!! totally winged that one without a pattern 

Come hang out with me WYOKrista!!!!

Is this fun or what?!?!
  woo! woo!

and yes! I am having a blast with this one....now where to find a  refrigerator box to ship all this stuff in?!?

Hah!  My cat is my little crafting buddy. She seems to be interested always in what I am doing.  And she likes to attack the skeins of yarn.

2 projects down, 1 in the works & I've got a few ideas in the old grey matter bruin'.  I've been buying all the Halloween issues of mags as well.  Have to get ready for the annual Halloween Bash.  Has anyone noticed that they put a different cover on the same issue of a magazine & then you end up buying multiple copies of the same issue That's infuriating    OK...now that I vented that....it's off to craft some more!!!

yep!!! I fall for that a lot! this is a good crafting day for lots of us it seems....

 My cat is my little crafting buddy. . 

my one cat likes to hang out, too...he wants to sit on my lap while I sew, does not work so well.  The other one is a scardy cat and he hides.

back to work
