finally back into the swing of crafting after the holidays! got four new bracelets up in the shop for you lovelies to look at (and maybe buy!)
random craft pic:
i actually made this hat for myself this fall, just to see if i could do it! then i made a smaller one for bug for christmas and promptly forgot about it, so i gave it to her a few days late. my bad. sadly, the kid size of the pattern i used was still to small! i had to keep adding on to this one (which was already the large size) to get it to fit me and it still fits bug perfectly! she's so cute in it! i also gave her the smaller hat (which is the same as this one, only pink base/green trim) to put on one of her dolls or something. she had her squirrel puppet wearing it for a while. she's so silly. :P
also, on the subject of crafts, i wish we could have been recording bug's fit of craft rage for the blog! she has a foam polar bear kit, you know, that has the pieces and you just put them together? apparently they didn't have the adhesive on them like most of those things do, so she couldn't figure out how to put it together, so she raged until we found some glue. after that she raged because she lost one of his eyes (running around crying and yelling 'i guess he's just gonna be a one eyed bear!!') and finally mom just put it together. she then took the final project and presented it to dad as if nothing had ever happened. a classic episode of craft rage if i have ever seen it.
i was also raging the other day, though. i wanted to make one of the slouchy crochet berets like the ones we sell at spencers, but couldn't find a suitable pattern. i thought i could just wing it, but that didn't work either. D: and not that i don't love my place of employment, but i'm not paying fifteen dollars for some simple crochet, i'll figure it out eventually.
love and buttons, tiffers
