Merry Christmas

It's christmas! I love christmas! It's the time of year to be with family and friends. It's also the time of year when I gain lots of weight.  Cookies ,tamales, menudo, etc, etc. I love it all! 

Even though christmas is a happy holiday I tend to get a little sad. I start thinking of the soldiers who are away from their families and how alone they must feel. Let us pray for them and hope that this war will be over soon.


"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” ISAIAH 9:6 
May Christ bless you with all the happiness and success you deserve! Merry Christmas!

My new craft area

I promised I would take some pics of my craft area when it was done but I decided to do a video instead. So here it is. Thanks for watching.

Hello!

Hello everyone. I know I haven't been blogging or doing much of anything lately, but I am working on some ideas for tutorials. Also, I finally have a place to craft on again and I will be taking some pics of that soon.

Can't believe christmas is just around the corner. This year me and my husband have decided to spend  alot of our christmas money on charity. I'm hoping this will show my daughter how lucky will all are to have a home, food and all those little things that seem like nothing. It's amazing what things we take for granted.

Galatians 5:22–23

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

No More Miss Fatty Fat!

So I decided this week is my last week of being Miss Fatty Fat. I'm not really going on a diet but I'll be watching how many calories I take in a day and start to be more active. I'm trying to do 1200 calories a day. I don't know if that's good or not. Maybe I should look that up. I'm really tired of being overweight. It's not about being skinny I just want to be healthy.

On another note. As you all know I had to give up my craft room. My husband, daughter and I live with my parents and for the last 3 or 4 weeks my nephew has been staying here. Poor kid had to sleep on a blow up mattress in the living room. Well that wasn't working. We decided to give him my craft room so that he could be more comfortable. All my stuff is packed and I'm going crazy! I'm trying to find a corner somewhere in the house where I can work. Haven't had any luck. Sad me! My husband had an idea of getting a sturdy 6ft long garage shelf and make a work area out of that. We will have to make room somehow in our bedroom but I think it might work. I really do hope this works cause I have no outlet and my brain is going mushy. I will put up some pics if this idea goes through. If it doesn't happen you'll know cause I'll be on here whining.

Shop closed

My shop will be closed for a couple of weeks due to my nephew moving in. I have to pack my items for while until we get his room comfortable for him. This is not the end. I will return.

Oops section in my Etsy shop

I have made a new section in my Etsy shop called oops. This section is of items I have made that are not as perfect as I like them to be. All the items in the oops section will be discounted from 30%-50% off. Here's some pendants that I will be listing later on today. Why are these in oops? The paper edge is showing a little too much for my taste. I will be listing these for $3. What a deal!

New Zipper Pouches

I have a couple of new pouches in my Etsy Shop. Please stop by and take a look.
Use this pouch for school, art supplies, make up, etc. You can also use it to organize those items in your bag that are floating around. I always have trouble finding my pens in my bag, so I just throw my pens along with my checkbook in the pouch to make it so much easier to find.

Measurements are approximately
