Hip Hip Bag

Getting ready for my trip to Chicago and didn't want to lug my purse on my shoulder all week, so I made the modern version of a fanny pack, the hip bag. Added some bling last night with this awesome 'lil tool my sister got me called the BeJeweler. It hot glues real Swarovski crystals. I also made the belt it's attached. Can't wait stomp around the windy city with my new bag!

Bulletin Board

I finally got this done...had all the parts for a while, just had to run out for more rick rack to finish it up. I really like how it turned out. Now to hang it up!

Baby Quilt

Here's a super cute baby quilt I made for Sarah's little girl, Allison. Super soft minky on the back really makes it cozy.

My first doggie creation!

This weekend I made Dax a new harness that is waaaaay cooler than her old ruffled demin "skirt". Watch out, my dog WILL bite you, she's tough! hehe :P

Cute Wallets

Finished up the black cardholder/wallet for my co-worker. I'm extremely happy with the results, as was my first customer. Thanks Alice!

The Crafting plan

Here I start my journey, my goal is to Get my Craft on, by getting an Etsy site up and running. I've gotten a bit of leg work done...

• domain name purchased - check
• Etsy site name reserved - check
• Blog set up - but not with the same name :( - check
• a few items crafted and ready to sell - check
  

Still to do:

• Logo - need it designed
• Set up website
  
• Research shipping - packing materials, costs, etc
• Photograph items ready to sell

I'm excited and anxious, but also feeling very accomplished. This has been an idea swirling around in my head for years. It feels great to finally be moving forward and giving this a shot. Good luck to me!
