Pictured is "Celia" a fiber art necklace. I posted a picture of the yarn in an earlier post, this is just one of the many necklaces I will be making with it.
She is available in the shop.
I really enjoy making fiber art necklaces and I hope they catch on with my customers! I always hear "I LOVE handspun, but I don't knit." and the like, this is a way to display handspun without having needle skills! Oh, and one of my favorite parts is the handmade buttons I use for clasps! I love to collaborate with my friends and etsy artists, so fun picking out the pretty buttons! (Thanks, Maggie!)
I am very happy with the fiber necklaces, but I had all of these plans today! Card fiber, clean the house, get rid of the entertainment center, and I even wanted to BAKE. All I got done was listing some new items in the shop. My poor baby's been crying most of the day, and I feel so run down. When I tried folding laundry it ended up thrown all over my bedroom. I haven't been sleeping well, which is expected. It catches up to me, and then I'm useless!
I have been trying to get more energy. I make sure to take a vitamin in the morning, and take care of myself before I get everyone else ready. I've been eating better and trying to take more walks even if it's cold. Any other advice would be appreciated! Sometimes I look at the work at home mom shops on etsy, and I am just shocked. How do you do it??? *ahem Julie*
Well, with all of these exhausting days my honeymoon on March 25th will be that much sweeter!!
Tomorrow my hunny bunny Emm is coming over to work on greeting cards for a book. If you're interested in submitting a card, here are the details:
