It took longer than I expected, but here's how to keep up with me if you want to, now that I I'm not planning to use this blog any longer. My new blog, Simple Joys at Home! It'll be more about my life in general, rather than just what I make. Here's the link ---> Simple Joys at Home
Hope to see you there!

I've Been Busy.....

You may wonder why I haven't been posting much......
Well, the truth is, I get tired of just posting about projects that I've done. It starts to feel rather repetitive if I use the same patterns over and over, and who wants to be repetitive?
Another reason, is that we're moving. If you don't know me, you may not know that I have 7 younger siblings, with another due in a few weeks. If you've ever tried moving a family of ten, you know that it isn't exactly the easiest thing in the world. Thankfully, we're not moving across the country, but under an hour away from where we're living now.
Once we move, I don't plan on posting on this blog anymore (Not that I have been anyway. Ha :)).
If you want to be able to see more of my projects, you can like my Facebook page, that I'm using to sell my items on. You can like it here ---> https://www.facebook.com/pages/Simple-Joys-At-Home/362587613856008
If you actually want to keep up with me as a person, then you'll have to wait a few weeks, to find out the best way to do that :).
Until then, a few(?) pictures of my latest projects: (the reason they have a name other than my blog name, is because Simple Joys At Home is my Etsy and Facebook name, and I've already edited these pictures for them.)

Facebook Page/Possible Giveaway

I've recently opened up my Etsy shop, as you probably know. A few days later, I created a Facebook page.

I just posted this on my Facebook page, so 'like' away!:

We have a planned giveaway, in honor of my little brother's 13th birthday (he got the honor of picking the prize)! BUT! This giveaway will only happen if we reach 100 likes on or by Wednesday, March 27th, 2013, which is his birthday, so spread the love and share this with your friends! The more you share, the better chance we have of reaching 100 likes and giving away a pair of these darling boots!

What You've Been Waiting For

So, this is it, the great thing that you've been waiting to hear about.

Are you ready?

Are you sure?

I know I am.

Okay. I opened my Etsy shop!
I've been planning this for awhile, but finally set a date, as a deadline. I'll continue new (and some never before seen on this blog) items over the next several days, so be sure to check back again soon.
For my great Grand Opening, I'm also offering a 10% discount coupon code "GRANDOPENING" to anyone and everyone, so spread the love. This coupon code will only be good for about a week however, so act soon.

And, as promised in this post, a picture of my project:

It needs just a touch of work, so it's not in my shop yet, but hopefully will be in the next few days.

One Last Teaser

Here is one last teaser before the great happening...

I can't wait 'till tomorrow, can you?

Can You Guess?

This is a little project that I'm working on, and thought you might like a picture of the process as a teaser.
Come back on Friday, March 1st, to find out what it is. When you do, you'll also find out what the great upcoming event is!

So, can you guess what this will be?

Baby Rain Boots

This is a little project that I did up over the weekend. Fairly easy, and oh-so-cute. I'm totally in love with the patterns designed by Elizabeth Alan of The Lovely Crow. They are simply adorable. I love just browsing her Etsy shop, and thinking about which project I'm going to tackle next. So fun.

Here are several pictures from different angles:

In other news, I have something very exciting happening soon. The tentative date for this very exciting happening is March 1st*, but you will have to check back then to find out what it is :).


*This date is subject to change. If it does, it will be being pushed out about a week or so. It will not be happening before March 1st, however, so you don't need to worry that you'll miss it.
