Crocheted Things

I kept seeing people wear these cute knit headbands so I decided I wanted to learn how to make some. I knew knitting was harder so I decided to learn how to crochet them.

I made lots of them. My days and nights were over taken with crocheting.

I ended up with one in just about every color yarn available. (not really, but close. I did buy enough colors of yarn that I had to buy a big rubbermaid tote and a cute wickerish basket to hold it all in). I'm obsessive like that.

Then I got tired of making the headbands so I moved onto hats. Here are some of the pictures of the creations.

Forgive me that I am in almost every picture. I tried to have courtney model for my pictures but she was so annoyed with it that she never looked very happy wearing them. How can I put them for sale if my model always looks like she is being held at gun point for the pictures? I can't, so I took matters into my own hands and thus I am now my own model.

Poopy Green Pleated Purse

Well I typed the whole story about this bag but then somehow I deleted it so you get the pictures and no story because I refuse to retype it. Sorry!

MiNi Mommy Baby Doll Set

I have a ton of flannel fabric that just sits so pretty stacked in the closet. I decided it was high time to put it to good use. So as I layed in bed last night I had the idea to make some doll diapers. Then when I started to make the diapers today I had a funny shaped scrap and decided to try to turn it into a purse. Then I made a few bibs and a burp cloth then I still had some of the same print flannel left so I made a blanket. There you have it. Here are the pictures.

I can never just post 1 picture. So be prepared to see a very photo heavy blog.

Whenever I finish making something I take lots of picture just to make sure I get a good one and then I decide which ones are the best to put on my Etsy listing. So be prepared.

New Blog

I have decided to start a blog about my adventure in making things. Why you ask? Because have you ever made something and you are so pleased with it when it is done that you just want to show everyone? My kids just don't get very excited about the things I make.

So I could go door to door and show my neighbors (which I don't think would be a good idea because they barely know me) or I can post my excitement here.

So if you are the kind of person that likes to see things that people make, then follow along, and if you are unexciteable like my kids, then carry on doing whatever it is you were doing before checking this blog out.
