Back to Craftin'....

This weekend Jeff and I spent some time hitting up our favorite local thrift stores. We mostly end up coming away with books and I usually purchase some fabric or printed sheets to use for stuffies. We have been on the hunt lately for great mid-century modern home books and furniture books. We found two great ones yesterday, the first is Sunset's Planning Your New Home from 1967. The second is in conjunction with the Parsons School of Design and is called More Furniture in 24 Hours from 1978. I also picked up The Complete Book of Sewing from 1972...which you can imagine, has some great pictures! We also stopped by the Varsity on Jimmy Carter for lunch which made my day!

After we got home, I broke out all the crafting supplies and started whipping up these tiny plush logs. I'm not sure why I hadn't thought to make tiny versions to go with the big stumps. They turned out so cute and squishy! I really am completely enamored with tiny things!

Weekend Work....

I've been really trying to gather my thoughts and ideas for the craft fair, while still actually making things in whatever time is leftover. I managed to make a few tree stumps today and I bought all the terracotta pots yesterday to "plant" my lil' cactuses in. I also (finally) updated my flickr with recent projects (thanks to Jess who added me as a contact which led to me logging in and realizing that the pictures were very old)! Oh, and I made a custom order cupcake keychain that turned out really cute! The whipped cream and cherry dollop is a detachable pin!
