Less than 2 hours left in the color scheme contest, and there’s a flurry of activity over here. I’m trying to get the things I’ve made photographed and ready for the website. The contest ends at midnight, and while I’m not crazy enough to post the results at 12:01am, I do want to take care […]
Read More: Almost time…Ever set out to make a small change that you think will be a Good Thing, only to discover once the deed is done, that there are repercussions you hadn’t taken into account? It took me all of five minutes to use flickr’s organizer to take 200 or so photos and change one property about […]

New buttons on Etsy. And new buttons at Polka Dot Creations. And lots of fog out the window. It’s been a day of catching up. I only got half of the orders out today (*sigh*) but the rest will definitely be done by tomorrow. Some batches just take longer than others. This particular one was […]

Or are you about ready to gouge your eyes out by now? These are for the boys. The one on the left goes with Aidan’s orange vest, and the one on the right goes with Eamonn’s blue vest. They’re both made in my usual way, with flannel backing, polymer clay buttons, and a few patches […]
Read More: Think you can stand looking at a few more scarves?But in a good way… I’ve just added six new items based on Alexander Henry’s Birdseed fabric to my shop. Two pendants… …three big buttons… …and a ring. There’s more (earrings and bobby pins in particular), but I don’t want to spend my whole day in front of the computer – the sun is shining, […]

Have a handful of scrumptious Farmers’ Market kettle corn and answer a quick question for me, ok? [poll=2] Thanks! And now on to other things… Like toes! A certain little four-year-old boy looked up at me the other day and said, “Mommy? Do you have green nail polish?” I didn’t. “Do you think we could […]

If you have small children at home, chances are reading the title of this post has reminded you of the Blue’s Clues color episode. You probably have that song going through your head, and it will be there for at least the next three hours. Sorry about that… Have you seen the A Year of […]
Read More: Colors, Colors, EverywhereEverybody else is doing it, so what the heck – I opened an Etsy shop this morning. It’ll be interesting to see how my luck there compares to my luck on my website.
Read More: Peer PressureSo, it’s after 2:00 in the afternoon and I’m still in my pj’s. I got up at 7:30 to help my younger son in the the bathroom, crawled back into bed and didn’t emerge until 3 hours later. That’s so unlike me! I think I really needed the sleep, and as it turns out, I […]
Read More: Lazy DayWould you call a barrette an “accessory” or “jewelry” ?? I’ve been referring to them as jewelry on my website because the two categories were “jewelry” and “gifts.” Barrettes are more jewelry than they are gifts. But last summer I started an “accessories” category when I started embellishing flip-flops, and now I’m thinking the barrettes […]
