Halloween Tiles

I just posted my two other Halloween themed tiles on artfire... Should I post these on my etsy as well since I tend to get more traffic there?

Finally Some Tiles!

I am doing my scrabble tiles a little different this time... I am allowing people to choose for them to be made into a key chain or a pendant. I hope this works out. I got late in the Halloween themed, but this is what I got so far (only the candy corn and spider webs are up on artfire):

Been sooooo busy! X_X

Things have been insane lately. My Dad got a job in Dallas, Texas and they are running around like chickens with their heads cut off (not a pretty picture, of course). I am planning to stay behind to be with my boyfriend of 26 months. I have been going to the house everyday I have had off to clean and pack my room. We are hoping tonight will be the last day.

I also have to reorganize my craft stuff since it's in a box right now... With that said, I will be busy all day tomorrow working on craft stuff after going to the Ohio Renfair. I hope to have 2 to 3 of the flowers and 4 to 6 of the scrabbles done, all of them being Halloween themed

Reopening Artfire Shop

So... I have decided to open my Artfire shop again (http://pastrystitches.artfire.com) and going to try to quickly make some Halloween items for my shop. I am hoping by Saturday I will have at least 3 to 5 new items in it ^_^. Maybe a few Halloween themed fabric flower hair clips and scrabble tiles.

Coming back!

I am coming back to the crafting world!! I am trying hard to keep myself busy everyday, lol. I am going to work on plushies for my craft shops. On top of that, I am working on my books still and hoping next year to send one into a contest. Then if I don't win, gonna just send it into publishing.

I am hoping on my blog that every Friday I will do a blog entry on a crafter that's unique and friendly. Good customer service and all of that. Going to have to work on the format and questions I will do for that. If not on this blog... a different blog ^^.

Long Time No See

It's been a looooong time since I posted on this thing. I haven't done etsy/artfire stuff for a long time, so that's one of the main reasons I haven't been on here. Sadly I still don't have time to make things, but I would like to get active on my blogging again. I am thinking of making a new blog... kinda like an advice column/Q&A. Trying to think of a name for it and all. I hope it works and gets a lot of attention. I like helping people and giving advice. It's probably going to be a relationship advice type of thing... but not just bf/gf (bf/bf and gf/gf) and marriage, but also parent/child, siblings, business, and etc.

Any ideas for a name?
