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?

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?
