Time Off until after September 9th

Sorry I haven't posted all week, but due to a couple of medical issues, I will be taking time from posting until after September 9th.

It's only for a couple of weeks and I'll make up for it when I get back to posting. 

Thanks for understanding, and I can't wait to see all I'll miss over the two week period. 

I just need to take it easy and relax, so I don't want to post without giving thought to it and right now my mind just isn't into it.

See you then.

Don't wait to Create.

Frugal Sundays * *

Hello crafters,

When it comes to packaging and shipping I try to recycle as much as I can, and love it when I make things myself.

I do enjoy making my tags, jewelry cards, little fabric drawstring bags, or fabric envelopes, and spend a lot of time doing them. I do everything myself and like I said, enjoy every minute of it. 

The only thing I usually buy made is the different sized plastic bags that I use. :)

Today I want to show you what I use to make

Cornuopian Saturday's

Yes, Saturday is left for the Abundance from the week past. (if that makes any sense) :)

Try to complete two things you have started. 

Organize priorities.

List a new item in your shop.

Don't get overwhelmed.

Have fun...always. :)

Plan projects for the coming week.

Take a break...go for a walk.

Of course I will practice what I preach. :)

I'm sure like many others feel, there is never enough

Search and Share Fridays

Hello there,
Fridays is a great day to go out with a friend or few and search around for some goodies to add to your supplies.

I know I enjoy going out on a weekday to do my shopping because I find it less crowded with most people still at their day J.O.B.

Yes, I know this post is being done on Saturday morn, and that is because I nodded off early and didn't get a chance to post last night.
I did go out for a shop which was mostly random findings and a small can of varnish that I wanted to get for my handmade birch

Thursday - Realizations

Hi there,

I guess I should have figured out how to do a tutorial before I rushed ahead of myself to say that I would do one. :)

I did finish the little coin purse right here and used a piece of dark green felted wool, a black zipper, and for the lining I used a piece of  plaid, plus a heart that

Wednesday's Easy Peasy Tutorial

Sorry to make you wait for the tutorial, but,

I was totally sidetracked yesterday by one of my sister's and we were out all day. By the time I came home there really wasn't much time between having a very late dinner, walking the dog, and getting a few minutes to chill before getting to bed.

I'll get to work on the tutorial.

So I declare Wednesday's to be Easy Peasy Tutorials.

It will be a fun and simple tutorial to follow, especially for beginners.

Talk soon.

Tuesday - Two Too To's Day

Hi there,
Hope your Tuesday is going well.


The three pictures I just posted are of the cat face I previously mentioned that my grandaughter needle felted. I thought it was so cute for her first try at it. :)

What she did was draw a picture of the cat head first and then

A Quickie Before Bed

Just wish I had time today to let you see the needle felting that my gran daughter accomplished from her first try at it.

It's the cutest!  I still have to take a quick picture in the morn, but that will be pretty much the first thing I will do when I get online.

Hope everyone had a great creating day, and if you have a shop I hope you made many sales.

Have a great sleep and I'll talk to you tomorrow which is only a few hours away. :) 

Starting to nod off so I better get going.


Talk soon.
Don't wait to Create.

Hello And Welcome To My Blog.

Hello there,
My name is Laura and I started this blog to post anything and everything that is going on in my life when it comes to crafting, sewing, cooking, and of course health and fitness. Basically I want to pull out from my imagination all the ideas that are stockpiled and make them visible for everyone to see. Hence the blog title. :)


Plus, I'd like to check out some tutorials  so I can
