Busy Weekend coming up

 The Round Robin Holiday Shop Tour is taking place Nov.11-14. It is a very anticipated event for shoppers and locally owned shops in the area. I am fortunate enough to have some of my knit scarves and needle felted items in one of these shops (Harvest Thyme Herbs). Here is some info about this event.

Time to get ready for the holidays!

Time goes by so fast. Halloween has come and gone and now the cold weather sets in and the woodstove gets to warm the house with inviting Sunday meals and football starting to take over our household.
       I need to get going on my Christmas gifts and start to review my needed supplies. I don't need much and have a mental list of what I'm doing. Some projects I'm thinking of are maryjane slippers,scarves,bags,needle felted key chains,bookmarks, and holiday ornaments. I'm going to really try and use my supplies on hand and cut back on spending on things not needed. That means organizing my craft room and doing an inventory of everything I have.
      We will be staying home for Thanksgiving this year. It is my daughters first year of college and we are choosing to not spend our time together traveling. I will miss my family dearly but time restraints are an issue this year. Well , I will leave with a photo of the turkeys in my yard yesterday. They were here all day!

Fall in New Hampshire

It's my favorite time of year!!! I just love all the beautiful natural colors that fall brings.My creativity and artsyself really comes alive. My mind is filled with ideas and projects that I can't wait to try. I might not create a masterpiece but its sure fun trying! Failure in art is often a hidden beauty waiting to be seen.(that really sounds corny). Well, I will try and report here on my ongoing   projects and maybe even get some input. All is welcome, the good,bad and even ugly. So I'm off to begin something(please stop by often)
