Skeleton Key Pendants // Christmas

Hey Ya'll! Are you enjoying the autumn season? I know I am! It's starting to get chilly here in my neck of the woods. Not so chilly that it's time to turn on the heat, but chilly enough that it makes you curl up in a blanket, or sleep late. Sleep later that is.... :P

I'm absolutely in love with the first two pendants I have picture here. They have that perfect simpleness that can go with so much. I love to pair my pendants on a long chain and wear it under a scarf where it hangs gracefully under the scarf. ;)

CHRISTMAS

This Christmas Pendant came in my head just today! Sometimes it takes me awhile to think of how to make new things, but when they do, they normally succeed. ;)

I also wanted to show and tell you all that the Snow Man Cozy is back in my shop! Isn't he cute!

The thought of someone having their precious baby boy's pictures taken in this cute overall photo prop outfit for a memorable photo makes me smile.

Brand New Items // Earbud Cases

It's a brand new item and it was a brand new idea for me! I absolutely love it when you have an idea in your head and it comes out just like you imagined! That's the way it was for these earbud case! There are so many uses for them too! Lunch money pouches for school, coin purse, memory card case, the list could go on! The keychain ring makes the pouch able to be hooked onto your backpack, purse, or keychain. 

Right now I only have these two colors. But be on the lookout for more!

Crochet Scrubbies // I Tried Something New

There is always something fun about changing/pairing colors. At least, I've always liked playing with putting the colors together. ;) Do you like this color combo? What color Combo's would you do?

Pink and White Crochet Scrubby

This last week I had decided to write the pattern that I made for my scrubbies available to others. Yesterday, I sat down and made one, taking photos as I went for the pattern...then I laid it out and made it a pdf download! Never in my life would I have dreamed that it would take me so long! Anyway, enough rambling... :P It's now available if you want to make your own color combos for yourself or as a gift! They are easy to make and it's a great pattern for beginners! (link below) Enjoy!

Crochet Scrubbies // They're Back!

It's like Murphy's law. As soon as you take it out of your shop it's viewed lots of times! That's what made me decide to put them back in my shop. The views made me think that maybe people were wanting to have some again. Were you? were you wanting some again? Of course you were! :P You really, really, need some of these! They are excellent for washing off your make up and face! Not that we don't like to see your face, it's just that unless you don't have these your face won't be perfect!! Ok... so I'm not good at making sales speeches or giving people guilt trips into buying things. As you may have noticed. Lets not do that again... Movin' on! These scrubbies are the ones in my shop right now. They are used for washing your face and body, like I said above, or you can use them in the kitchen. That's all up to you. ;)

Crochet Banner // Branching Out

I know, I know... I am finally posting something!! It's been to long since I posted anything. But I felt like nobody would want to see pics of pendants over and over...for one, I hate blogs that are repetitive and try my hardest not to be. Though I don't think I succeed all the time. But I shall succeed today!! ;) If you haven't figured it out already, I love to try and make new things. And as such it reflects into my Etsy life. :P So, without further ado, I want to say that I am going to be branching out and trying/making new things! Stay tuned to see what comes in the near future. Now onto what I want to share with you. It's a fun little something I made about a month ago. It's kinda late for the holiday it's made for, but I want you to see it anyway. ;) SEE! >>>> :)

Red, white, and blue! This could be used for the upcoming holiday: Labor Day! Even if it was made for the fourth of July. :P
I am really excited at how cute this turned out! It's so much cuter and fun in person then the photo's show! Which is somewhat a bummer since you cannot get the full effect. There are so many good ideas when it comes to banners and what you can use them for. This would make such a cute photo prop to hold or put in the background. This banner is about 7 ft long and made from 100% cotton. I love cotton! Why? because it stays nice and neat looking and doesn't get fuzzy like acrylic yarns!

What color combos would you like to see?

What would you use a banner for?

What length would you like best?

New Products and Why I Want to Have a Productive Etsy Shop

Hey Everyone!! I wanted to let you know that my shop and my social networks have hopefully changed for the better. ;) I have discovered a new product that I personally have fallen in love with and wanted to give you all a chance of seeing it and possibly having it for yourself. 

Before we go on with looking at all the new products in this post, I would like to explain to you why I am once again, diving into becoming an Etsy Seller. For a while, I have wanted to build  my Hope Chest for when Mr. Right comes along. But it takes some extra money to do that. Knowing that I wanted to stay home no matter what; my mind started contemplating what I would do to make some extra money. Of course, Etsy is the place I knew I would be. But what to make was the problem. I realized that it needed to be something everyone could afford and something that would also be simple. Why did I want to keep it simple? I have noticed that what a lot of people love, is simplicity. If it's easy to wear and easy to put on. then it's convenient. Who doesn't love convenience right?! :) And that is why I chose simple yet striking skeleton key pendants. They are perfect for adding a nice flair to everyday outfits or even office outfits, without being over dressy or over annoying. The next reason I have is that I would like to be able to put some money aside for things that I need. Having the extra money helps my Mom and Dad to have some extra money for themselves. Things like buying my own clothes, shoes, or other needs, frees my Mom and Dad up a little and it makes me feel better when they have extra money they don't have to spend on me. ;) These are the main reasons I am beginning my Etsy shop. Thank you so much for reading and I hope that you enjoy my products. Please know that everything I make is made with the excitement of knowing it will bring someone pleasure. Thanks for looking and sharing!

Give me your ideas!!!

Well. Life has been busy for my family. We just finished moving this past weekend and so I have just now been able to open my shop back up. Because of the new year, I was trying to think of a something new I could put in my shop. My thoughts include, #Soap #Cozies, holiday garlands, and I have tossed around the idea of baby booties. I would love to know what you think I should make! What would you be interested in? Feel free to suggest! If you can, I would love to see a picture of your thoughts. (If you can). ;)
