Welcome, former Polka Dot Creations customers!
I closed that book shop in 2012, but I have not given up polymer clay. There are a few things here you may enjoy:
Looking for something in particular?
Enjoy your visit!

Ok, technically, the one that’s for me isn’t even for me to keep – it’s for my MIL, and it’s part of her birthday gift. I went back to my trusty little blue Knifty Knitter loom this week and made my very favorite neckwarmer pattern: Cashmere Neckwarmer [the only link I can find is to […]

If I wasn’t so full right now from my take-out supper, I’d be curled up in my pj’s sipping a cup of vanilla coffee as I write this. Actually, I’m too full for the coffee, but not for the pj’s. Hm. Hang on a moment while I go change… There. That’s much better. So, ready […]

It’s been a quiet week on the blog, but not so in Real Life™. The kids started school on Tuesday, and this being the first year that both of them have a full day schedule, it’s been rather odd for me. I certainly have enough to keep me busy, but it’s hard to get out […]

Saturday I sat down with my little bowl of buttons, and began to organize them by color and pattern. There is something strangely appealing about this activity for me. Seriously, I could probably re-arrange and re-organize them all day long and not get bored. But then, I’m weird that way. I had them out so […]

I finished my little neckwarmer project. And, wow, was it ever a quick knit! I nearly completed the whole thing while watching TV last night. I should really call this my “Stargate Atlantis Series Finale Scarf” but I think I’ll stick to the simpler “Malabrigo Neckwarmer.” The Details Pattern: Cashmere Neckwarmer by Kim (on Ravelry) […]

Thank you for all of the nice comments on the projects I’ve posted about recently! I’ve wanted to reply to them all, but I’ve hardly been online today. I spent much of my time buried under buttons. Making buttons, baking buttons, drilling holes in buttons… Arranging buttons prettily in Lenox bowls. You know, important stuff. […]

Oooh, what a lovely day it has been today! I haven’t spent a whole lot of time on the computer, but what I have spent, has been very good for the ego – holy cow, people! Those buttons I showed weren’t even finished yet, and I’ve gotten so many complements here, and on flickr, and […]

I got this new book the other day – The Pillow Book by Shannon Okey – with the idea of making throw pillows for my bedroom. I’ve flipped through it a few times before, but today I actually decided I wanted to try one of the projects. This button-enclosed pillow would be cool with some […]

Or, for sale, anyway… On Etsy, I’ve got three new items, meant to coordinate with particular fabric (as all of my Etsy items are). Of course, if you like the colors, you can use them in whatever context you wish. Meet Flea Market Fancy Striped Decorative Button, Flea Market Fancy Triangles Decorative Button, and Flea […]

I’m making scarves for the boys. They’re going to be the two columns on the left, made to match their blue and orange vests. The other three will go in my etsy shop. I had to make coordinating buttons, of course… Here’s another series of scarves I’ll be working on. The one on the left […]
