Holiday Shop Update this weekend!

***Shop is updated :)***
Yay! I finally sewed up enough little mushroom ornaments for a small shop update.

There will be 2 snowshrooms, 2 angels, and 2 reindeer for sure. And one big custom order...

I'm planning on listing things on Saturday/Sunday- not sure what exact day or time unfortunately. But if you don't get any this time around, I plan on sewing more and listing them as they become available. I have until the 16th to sew sew sew and then I'm off for vacation. So I don't think I will have a lot to share since I'm also busy with making some presents, but I'd imagine at least 3 or so would make it into the shop before then...

Have a fun time getting ready for the holidays!!! This is my favorite season :) I LOVE it!!!

Wedding Mushrooms





These are my first wedding mushrooms ever and I couldn't have created them for a better couple. They really were something special for me to work on. John & Maegan really loved them and I was thrilled that they had come out better than anticipated. I managed to give my mushroom a pinstripe suit and John was wearing one. I matched the blue shirt too! And my orange and green were pretty close to the original wedding colors. So fun!

Angelshroom!



Ok, so I should've been sewing more snowshrooms and reindeer shrooms but... I got distracted. I think it's a good thing :)

Rudolph the Red-nosed Mushroom!


I love this new design, but I always say that... or at least I think it. I'm hoping to make a few more- these 2 are spoken for and then aiming to have a shop update at the beginning of December. Wish me luck to get as many done as I can! I already feel bad because I feel like I just can't work fast enough... I even gave myself a wristache the other day :(

Snowshroom Ornaments























I'm creating 10 of these for the First Annual Small Fox Ornament Swap that Sarah is so kindly organizing.

I can't wait to see what everyone else makes and what I end up receiving. These guys are really fun to make. I'm hoping to make a few more to finally update my shop. This year I really wanted to do some Halloween stuff but I never really had the time... so I'm going to start all my Xmas ideas instead. Hopefully, I can come out with 1-2 new designs for bigger mushrooms too or maybe stick to ornaments? Either way, there will be new things in the shop soon! :D

Got back from visiting my family




We had so much fun crafting!!! We made sock monkeys for the first time ever and it was a big hit. Painted ceramics with Pebeo paint- also a success. And it's tradition to go to a pottery place and paint... and do a paint by numbers. Play games- of course! This time around we tried Bananagrams (loved them). Another favorite- making paper fan people hangups :) I don't know what else to call them. We made plushforms- ghosts! Great times :)



and I also had the chance to digitalize some of my dad's old photographs! Gosh, I love them so so much. I'm pretty lucky- he took pictures of us pretty much every month of the year. I only got through maybe 1/16 of albums and captured 5-6 out of each album just to give you an idea how many beautiful photos we have :)
