Waiting for the last item to dry.

I am so thankful for my family. They still love me even when I turn into the obsessed crazy crafter lady.

Teaser photos-




It probably helps that a few of the items were made last year just waiting for the right person to come along

So happy that you are my partner calixita 

I haven't been keeping up with this board properly!!!!!  I missed this somehow!!!!  I love teasers!!  Thank you, Kaotic!!!  I'm thrilled to be the "right person"!!

The university I work at is having graduation ceremonies this weekend so by next week, things should have calmed down and I'm hoping to get some serious crafting in.  So far, my progress hasn't been very impressive but the ideas are churning!  Hopefully, I can make some of them a reality!

My package to Miss Barbara is officially sent off!  Dropped it off at the post office at lunch and it should be there in 7-10 days!  Now its time to wait!  *nervous!*

Wowzers...we have a sender!!! Gallery should be up tonight or tomorrow.

On a side note, yet crafty note, my husband's work laptop fried today and he lost 8 days of work. He's not horribly upset, but he will be busy at least tonight and probably tomorrow and Sunday redoing everything...so, that means mega crafty time for me!!!!

Today I was reminded that God paints trees better than me.........hehehe.. ...used that to my advantage! (hope my first foray into mixed media works out.....looks alright at the moment I think, but needs more work).

Thinking I'm going to be much closer to the wire for sending than some of these other awesome crafters! Just want to make sure everything's perfect before I send it though. I'm half done though! So yay!

I've finally found some time today to craft!  On a kinda sad, but kinda not note ... my sewing machine is not able to be fixed.  Which means I get to get a new one ... think I found one I want within budget.  I really can't go too long without a machine!  Hopefully tomorrow I'll just go out and get it done ...

Lacey - we shop at the same Joann (off the 202, right?)!  My favorite store - in total disarray.  I used to know where EVERYTHING was in that store .... now I'm confused.  Hopefully they'll get it together soon 

Back to crafting now ... hope everyone is having a great weekend

Had a very long list of errands to run today.

First stop was the post office

Haha, too funny, that IS my Joann's I couldn't believe the mess in there, I might have to take my chances at the one at I-10 and Ray on the way home from work until it gets cleaned up. So, now I'm wondering if I've ever seen you in there before. Maybe we'll have to meet there one day for a shopping trip  Sorry to hear about your machine, that's a total bummer, I hope you get a new one soon.

On the crafty side, I was shocked that I got my large almost done today. I thought I got the rest of the supplies for everything that's left, but just realized I forgot one thing. It's coming along pretty smoothly though and the hardest part of it is finished.
