This blog was originally about keeping a New Year's Resolution about being creative every day. As I plod through my daily trials, the blog has evolved into a way to find and maintain my happiness through crafting and creating.

Took a Fair Isle knitting class today from a little yarn store in Chagrin Falls called An Artful Yarn. The owner, Cathy, was so gracious and warm and funny. And she had on converse!! Here's a picture of what I did. It will be a headband when I'm done...

Today I created these bulletin boards for my second school. My room is pretty drab, but I'm ok with that for now. At least it's clean and organized and ready for tomorrow. (but I'm not ready.....)

Started a scarf using this lovely yarn from my stash from LAST YEAR'S yarn discovery tour. (As a result, I'm NOT doing this year's tour because he would kill me.)

Washer necklaces...
Pictured are my finished washers and all the circles I cut out for future washers. For about $15 I made 55 washers. One bottle of glaze did all 55. Planning to sell them for $1.00. $40 profit. Niiiiice!

After a visit to Michael's and Home Depot, here's my version of the craft pictured below. This is the "wet" version. In the morning, I'm hoping they are as beautiful as the ones below! So! Excited!!!

Made my very own bath scrunchie today. It was a demon! The last row had 675 stitches, hence the second color! Will modify the pattern on my next one. And I'll let you know how well it works after tomorrow morning's shower!!

I realized I've been MIA for a bit. I was prepping for a craft show and was out late and excuses and more excuses. Today, however, I had a day to myself and I finished a scarf last night and today I found this cool graffiti duct tape. Yay!
Scarf picture tomorrow!!
