Lazy days sorta



Well no day can be too lazy when you have kids, but we have had family visiting and have been out and about. I am working on a new pillow. They are my Happy Pillows, I am calling them that because they are so colorful and have smiley faces. Just what everyone needs to see first thing every morning! :)

ETSY UPDATE!





I just put some new stuff up on ETSY. :) Lots od colorful and fun stuff. Take a look...I'll update Flickr later....it is noon and I still haven't dressed OMG! Well read about last night...

Kids


Okay tonight (er today) I went to bed at 3:00 am...one of the kids wakes up at 3:30...it is 4:08 now and I am in blogland....oh boy I am going to be hating life tomorrow...er...today. Then the other one wakes up and can't go back to sleep, then they get hungry....

Here is that green chair I bought at a yardsale. The seat is messed up but it was my plan to make a seat cover and hide the mess, except now I notice that the sat really isn't secure at all....hmmm, either make a chair planter out of it (which I hate to do because the chair is rock solid besides the seat) OR have a piece of plywood cut to fit for a new seat. Either way it was a buck! I could not pass it up even though my husband gave me that look, hahaha.

The reason I was up so late is because I have 3 plushies and a pillow finished! Yay for me. So hopefully all goes well with moods tomorrow, er today so I can get them posted on ETSY and Flickr and here :)

Summertime



Well finally, it's beginning to feel like summer here! yay. Yesterday we went to a couple of yard sales and I got some fabric and a chair. I will post pics tomorrow of my stuff. The chair is really cute and green. I made this Summer Kitty today. Later when the kids go to sleep I will try to finish up some projects that have around a while. I haven't been feeling like I've accomplished much lately.

Last year the kids and I painted some pots and with the leftover paint we painted sticks.

Alexandra Monster


Alexandra tends to like winter and the fog it brings. Her maryjanes are usually smudged with mud because she is fond of hiding in hedges. She is quite often caught reading by candlelight despite the danger.

Alexandra is my second ragdoll.

eat sleep, ragdolls



I am on this ragdoll kick now. I think I am going to make a really raggy (not so much stuffing because I like them limpy) one for me and a really cute pink one for one of my littles because she is girly. My older girl isn't into anything indie, which is too bad. It's because I didn't raise her that way, I wasn't creating all the while she was little and now I regret it. Oh well.

I'm posting a couple of photos of two of my creations that live here. Both bunnies, the darker green one is wonky but so soft and has the sweetest face. The olive one looks so fun with all of her different patterns and textures.
