Wall Hanging

So apparently wall hangings are all the rage. I saw a few ideas on Pinterest and loved them. If you knit or crochet you know you have a LOT of extra yarn lying around. This is a perfect project for all your yarn scraps. I used a piece of drift wood from the northern California coast. I have an obsession with drift wood. Every time we go home I bring home a bag full. In my opinion there is always a use for it somewhere in your home decor.  If you don't have drift wood any piece of wood would do, a branch or dowel. I love all the different color combinations you could do. I am excited with how this first project turned out and can't wait to think up new color schemes. 

Crocheted Christmas Stockings

I sewed some stockings a few years back. I packed them into a box with some christmas tree stumps that I didn't let dry. The next year I opened up my Christmas box to find everything covered in mold. It was terrible. Luckily we had only been married a few years and had only accumulated a small amount of Christmas decor. Lesson learned, let tree stumps dry before packing away. 

So this year we needed stockings. We have a fireplace in our new house, and it would look naked with out stockings. I saw a few ideas online for crochet/knitted stockings and I was hooked. I followed this pattern from Red Heart Yarn. 

STOCKING PATTERN

I loved being able to pick colors for each of us. The pattern comes in three sizes, I used the medium and it came out perfect. 

I also made a yarn tassel garland with some left over yarn. Such an easy and inexpensive craft to add some festive decor. The garland was a perfect addition to the popsicle snowflakes I made. The snowflakes were simple too. (popsicle sticks, hot glue, & paint). I got the idea from Pinterest of course.

Crazy About Cowls

I absolutely love making this V-stitch cowl. A cowl is such an easy and functional accessory. I'm convinced everyone needs one or five in their wardrobe. 

If you are interested in placing an order please feel free to contact me or comment below. Cowls are $20 and come in custom colors. You name it and I'll make it. 

A Few More Blankets

Here is my booth from Bijou Market. I was so so happy with how everything turned out!

Here are more pictures of blankets I have in stock. They are all in my Etsy Shop. Check them out!

You can never go wrong with a white blanket for a new baby. Perfect for a baby blessing or newborn photos. 

Hot Pink, light pink and aqua. Perfect for a baby girl!

I have a slight obsession with stripes. Can you blame me?!

Banners, Banners, Banners

Bijou Market is over and it was a really good experience. I didn't sell as much as I would have liked but it was great exposure! I am amazed at the local talent, people are so creative and artistic and it is such a great venue to showcase it all. So in the aftermath of the market I have lots of banners, blankets, bows and headbands so pick them up now!

These banners would be perfect for a photo shoot, baby shower, bridal shower, wedding, nursery or for your mantel for a special occasion. 

If you have any questions or you are interested in a custom color message me and I will get back to you.
