crazy creatures


You know I'm a sucker for felt and faces.... A friend just sent me a link to this artist's site and I love her work. Zoe's work is creepy magical fun!

Fall time


The temperature is dropping, leaves are falling, craft shows are kicking in, and the Halloween decor is making an appearance...yes, it is my favorite time of year. And these tiny crocheted skulls are too cool....

The work of Anna Von Mertens is truly amazing. They remind me of mood rings in quilt form.

pipe cleaner greatness


Don Porcella is not afraid of the pipe cleaner. I would dare to say he has brought it to a whole new level. What a fun material to work with...soft and flexible.

Love


Although I'm not a huge consumer of Valentine's Day, I do love all of the hearts, decorations, and general idea of speaking your feelings. I try to do this every day with my loves in my life, but a little nudge by society is good for others too. And I am a huge fan of candy, so this is just another reason for me to eat an entire bag of heart candies....

So say it like you mean it this week...and eat candy!
