Works in progress...

Things I am currently working on...

Pillows! 




I am not able to finish them yet because I need to go buy more pillow filling. I have gotten new fabric and fabric from my mother, so I have a lot more to work with now!

Hard to keep up

It's been hard for me to keep up with this blog lately. I just got home from being away on Saturday night so I am trying to catch up on things. Our Christmas tree isn't even up yet! :( 

I  hope we can put the tree up tonight. Usually it gets put up right after Thanksgiving.  I am so behind on a lot of things. I need to do tons of laundry and haven't fully unpacked from the trip yet!
I'd like to start some new projects also, but I need to get other things done first. 

My mom is still doing great in her shop! She added new headbands that are cute and cozy. I recently added some scrabble tile pendants. You get pieces from the game scrabble, and you make them into pendants! It's fun. I have them going for only $4 each for Christmas shopping.

More scarflette talk...

Me and my mom had a mini "photo shoot" yesterday with her scarves/cowls. I say this totally jokingly! ;) She wanted to get natural lighting in pictures because it shows the truest color, and so I was to be in the pictures. Well I had to help my mom out, ya know. I usually charge more for my modeling services, but I just charged her nothing since she's my mom. Again, I am kidding!!! I am no model, lol. I am everyday people. Well, so that can help the common people who want to buy a scarflette relate to me, right? :P That's what I am going with, yeah. Sure.

I am impressed with her scarflettes and cowls in general, which is why I keep talking about them. I think they are so cute. She is going to make me one for Christmas. But I will hardly get to use it in Florida. :( Right now, visiting them in Alabama, I would get a lot of use out of it! I love these chilly days. We are chilly day deprived in Florida, which is why many people move there, but I don't like it! I don't want to freeze all winter, but I don't want to sweat during winter either! Florida has had some nicer weather recently but then it will go back into the 80s sometimes and even around Christmas. That just isn't good!!!I don't like a warm Christmas.

My mom has been doing pretty good in her shop. Her scarflettes are selling, and she also sold some other items. I am happy for her! She does make very cute things. I lended her my neck for a few scarflette pictures since I am still away visiting my mom and dad (& the rest of the family). My neck is in the first two pictures below. :P I'm famous!

Her newest additions:

I haven't added anything new really because of being away. But some fabric I ordered arrived back home, and I got some cute fabric scraps from my mom. So I hope to be making new pillows soon!
