I thought this was pretty hilarious. I obsessively browse through the Alchemy page on Etsy, (people can describe anything they want made, and Etsy sellers can bid on these requests) and came upon a request for a needle-felted bacon bracelet, and enthusiastically responded. The gal allowed me to make it for her! So here is [...]

I got into both the Handmaiden’s shows! They will be October 12th and December 7th at the VFW in Uptown. More details to come! I was in their May show and it was fantastic, so I am super excited to be in two more.

Coming soon to Milton and Margie’s: eye masks! You can light a candle and relax with a cozy eye mask. What you see pictured is a terribly lit picture of the eye mask prototype. Hopefully I will have some in final form on my site soon!
