Thank you for your nice comments on my yarn bag this week. I’m sorry I haven’t had the time to respond individually – I’ve been making checklists lately and actually crossing things off of them, believe it or not. Accomplishing things is great for home and business, but not so great for social networking fun! […]

I let myself off the hook this year, big time. In fact, there were only four handmade gifts total. First were the neckwarmers I knit for the boys. Eamonn’s been asking for a scarf lately – last week was so chilly! – so I looked to my go-to pattern and scaled it down for smaller […]

I meant to pop in here on Christmas Eve, but I was going nonstop until well past 10pm. I had a little bit of downtime on Christmas Day, but I felt kind of weird getting online on Christmas. So here I am today, hoping you had a fabulous holiday, thanking you for hanging out with […]

Every time I sit down to blog lately, my head fills up with lazy thoughts: I don’t feel like uploading my photos to flickr; I don’t know what to write about; maybe I’ll have a quick peek at my email first. And on and on. Until here we are six days since my last post, […]

…and I need a nap. I finished them last night, but today I needed to pack them up all pretty and safe, and get them on their way. Stopping, of course, to take a picture or two now and then. I don’t like to send custom work out without snapping a photo of it first […]

Or, in our case, on the little tinsel tree. These are fifteen polymer clay stocking ornaments. I was inspired by these fabric stockings to make a miniature version in clay. I’ve always thought of my patterned clay sheets like fabric anyway, so it was a pretty logical progression, in my mind. Every year I make […]

Today is the first day of my Christmas Vacation, which, if you were paying attention last year, you’d know is really not a “vacation” at all. I closed the book store on Sunday, got the last of the orders on their way yesterday, and today I am diving headlong into holiday preparations. I’ve been working […]

It’s a small thing, really, but it still took entirely too long to hit me: Decorating for Christmas does not have to be a One Day Event. It does not have to be like the one festive Sunday of my childhood, a few weeks before Christmas, when we would put up the tree and decorate […]

I just can’t seem to drag myself away from zookeeping, socializing, and a wee bit of tv-watching long enough to get a proper post together. Since I know that there are throngs of you missing your daily dose of polka dots, I will force myself to stay awake long past my bed time and post […]
Read More: Scenes from the week after ChristmasI had a busy few days before Christmas, enjoyed a lovely holiday with my in-laws, and hosted a pleasant day-after-Christmas party for my side of the family. The following day, which would be yesterday, I spent 14 hours eating potato chips & peanut butter cookies and playing Zoo Tycoon in my pajamas. I am planning […]
