To my Lovely Sisters

Who are you kidding? I know your M.O.

"Maybe if we leave our planters from the concrete class, Karin will plant them up all nice and pretty like." Class was Nov.6th!

I waited..............and waited..............till my brain couldn't take it anymore. Today I caved and planted them with cuttings I've been collecting. So, yeah....you're welcome ladies.

and the winner is............

Sorry, I'm so late posting the winner of the giveaway but my family's here for dinner, wine, and putting together a tiki puzzle. So basically it means a free meal and holiday cheer.

So the winner is.......................Tina B!!!!
Congratulations! I'll be contacting you soon. Thank you to everyone who entered. Happy Holidays! Karin

Christmas Hibernation

The season is almost over as far as the online world is concerned. Now I can sleep in, deck the halls and count the days before Christmas. Art's happy because it means I'll start cooking more. I just bought 2 cookbooks with a total of 575 soup recipes. My Christmas shopping is done and I'm ready.......are you?


*Don't forget.....Tuesday I picked the winner for my holiday giveaway!

Good luck!

A perfect Day!

I couldn't have asked for a better day for the Artist Market. The weather was perfect and it was so great to see a lot of familiar faces and catch up with old friends.
(The only bummer was that I drank too much coffee throughout the day and hardly slept a wink last night.)

A big THANK YOU to my sisters for all their help and friends that joined us with their handmade treasures. I wouldn't be able to do it without you guys.

To show our appreciation to you all, my sister and I are putting together a sweet little giveaway which I will post tomorrow. So come back and check it out. Who knows.....you could be the lucky winner!

Adorable felted pincushions and a collection of map paintings

Show update!

Looks like the weather should be perfect on Sunday. Yeah!

A few people have already stopped by...........no, I didn't let them take anything, but they do plan on arriving at noon sharp to grab up their goodies. So FYI, come before all the good stuff is gone.

A couple nights of felted cuteness

The last couple of evenings have been filled with christmas music, wine and needle felting madness. I've got another batch of owl baby ornaments done and these new little pin cushions which will be available at my show on Sunday and then in my Etsy shop. These little guys take forever to make but once you make one you just can't stop.

Next up......I need to make up some more jewelry and then I can relax and enjoy the show!
