I bought this pillow for a wedding gift & I wanted to share. I thought it was so unique when I saw it on her blog, that I messaged the seller and inquired about it & sure enough, she made one for me. Rikkianne was so great to work with, and her shop Chakra Pennywhistle is so ...

This week’s Shop of the Week is Linda B’s Beaded Jewelry, and I have to say upfront that she’s a wonderful Etsy seller! I work with Linda on the EtsyChai Team and she’s great. Here work is wonderful, too! This necklace caught my eye, it’s so striking and bold & that’s how I li...

Had fun at the party. But my costume wasn’t as flattering as I had hoped. I guess that’s what I get for waiting for the last minute … like trying to find snakes to wear in my hair Halloween morning, or 1/2 hour before the event, making alterations in a hotel room. Th...

I stopped doing many weekly blog posts about team members because I felt that was all I was doing. And I was busy. Not making stuff, but just busy. I’m still involved in teams, but just in different ways. For instance, I love the Etsy Twitter Team and my Tweet Deck is usually ru...

It’s one thing to have yarn or fabric stashed around the house in piles, boxes, footstools, under beds, closets, (well… you get the picture), and it’s another thing when you have to find what you need to work on a project. Last week I got overwhelmed – so much yarn lying around, copies of pat...

Tamdoll's SILVER Mountain Originals Halloween cuff bracelets at Apotheca. I had fun making these - next year I start Halloween crafting in August so I can make more!

I almost forgot to put up my blog post for the EtsyBloggers Carnival! The question I’ve chosen to answer is all about… Halloween! “What are you doing to celebrate this year?” I’ll be doing a couple of things this year. First of all I was invited to a Halloween party & want ...

I think that’s what all moms do, right? A part-time job here, another there. Volunteering. Taking care of the kids. Hobbies. Reading books. Helping with homework. Blogging. Keeping the house clean. Shopping, cooking, cleaning. Make stuff...

Once again, the NH Giant Pumpkin Growers Association have descended on our small town and their 2009 weigh-off was held yesterday. These guys were big. What do you do with a giant pumpkin? Here, we hollow them out and decorate them: Then, normally sane adults climb inside, add a mo...

Not in substance, but in existence. Not enough yarn to make a long scarf. Too scratchy to make it into a closely-worn cowl. Unraveled to begin anew… as what??? One skein Colinette Skye (Aran weight/10ply wool) yarn with size 8 needles. Taking suggestions.

Used up most of my recycled sari silk on this new basket: I ran out of this yarn just as I approached the top… well, actually I have one skein left but the colors are completely different, so I’m glad I found that soft suede yarn to finish it with. That [twig-studded recycled] yarn really d...

I’m working on a tiny project that I don’t want to put up here just yet. I don’t want to spoil someone’s surprise if they happen to follow my blog. I think I’m done with making baby sweaters for a while (unless anyone has any more news to share?????) Working on anoth...

I read comics. There it is. Today was 24 Hour Comics Day, so I stopped by Double Midnight Comics to see what was going on and to see what’s new. I read about Umbrella Academy & wanted to check it out… they didn’t have any so I’ll have to return in a few weeks. I d...

I don’t have my camera at the moment, so instead of w.i.p.’s here’s some of my Flickr favorites: How much do you like Flickr? Pretty addicting place for lots of eye-candy. Check out the latest post at EtsyChai if you’re interested in reading about the latest Jewish holiday ...

Sometimes I stay up late just so I can get some baking done without anyone bothering me in the kitchen. I made 2 of the 3 loaves of No-Knead Challah during the weekend and this last batch, decided to make it easier on myself and instead of braiding, just added it to the pan as balls and bru...

Lots of Etsy love going around these days, and I’m honored to have been included in these Treasuries! You can visit them as long as they’re live on the site – just note the date and time each one expires on the bottom right of their picture. I love the relaxing pastel colors in this Treasu...

The first thing you do when you see Vanessa’s blog, is say “Wow”. Go, see: I love her features, one recent one especially, How To: Fabric Wall Art. What a great project for those pieces of fabric I’ve picked up over the years… but never sewn with because I don’t want to cut them up!&...

This GOA yarn was great and squishy. But I don’t think I’ll be trying to make baby sweaters in chunky yarn again. They were quick to make, but I think too small for the bulk. Want a good laugh? Visit and read my article Bead Fail. Or check out the boun...

I couldn’t stop thinking about this sweater. Especially as I began knitting the pink one in a much thinner yarn. So, I went home and changed the buttons, unraveled the hat, and made a new one. Now I’m happy.

Check out these adorable earrings from Handmade by Sandi! She has a wonderful shop on etsy, filled with a great mix of handmade items. I have to admit a certain affection for someone who delves into a variety of crafts (I like making so many different things myself, with so many di...

Lately, I’ve been finishing projects! I don’t know if it’s the determined frame of mind, or the new yarn… but I’m going to run with it while the motivation lasts…. I had to adjust the pattern because I knit pretty loose… and maybe the yarn was just too bulky for this pattern… so, I reca...

pieKnits is a genius. Brilliant. In 15 minutes, I had my desk cleared up and needles organized. Can you hear the angelic chorus? Now I just have to figure out where to hang this, because it’s not going to stay on the doorknob. Finished one baby sweater, it’s block...

The EtsyBloggers Team question this week is: “1)Sept. 11 is the anniversary of a very tragic event. To make the world better what do you do? Charity donations or support, volunteering, living green or ?” Well, to keep things simple, I’ll answer in regards to today’s date only…. I often s...

I don’t know where the week has gone. I’m trying to knit a couple of baby sweaters in chunky yarn right now – gauge won’t work for me… it’s driving me c r a z y. I simply have to work with the pattern I have right now and stop looking for new ones on Ravelry (it’s addicting!) ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥...
