Oh hi there…

So to say it’s been awhile would have been a bit of an understatement. My last post was… Memorial Day?!!? I guess you could say I took the summer off. Truth be told, sometimes I just run out of inspiration and keeping a blog updated seems more like drudgery than fun. It’s been a fun, [...]

It’s my Blog-a-versary!

One year ago today I started this little blog. I hadn’t yet opened my shop and thought I should start a blog to promote my own stuff. Over the past year (and 177 posts) it’s turned into more of a collection of pictures and stories that inspire me as well as a place for me [...]

Absolutely Amazing Garden Chairs

I showed you the other day my current dreams for my “outdoor living area” and obviously one of the stars of that design were the absolutely amazing chairs from asv. Then I found these lovelies from anthropologie {via the Style-Files}. These guys are from none other than everyone’s favorite Target (pronounced of course as Tar-jay). [...]

Something Lovely for My Bookshelves… Thread Art Books

A couple of weeks ago I shared with you these amazing embroidered Penguin Classics covers and my first few attempts at embroidery. I’m itching to try it again (then again, what crafty project am I not itching to try?) and I’ve been lusting over these books for awhile. They aren’t all straight-up embroidery, but more [...]

Making a home… Moroccan Fretwork

I have been mulling over a fretwork post for awhile now. There’s so much I love about it that I wasn’t sure where to start. It’s no secret that I love fabric, so fabric with fretwork is at the top of my list. Other than that, the only place I thought I could use my [...]

Happy Holiday Time!

Ok, I’ve been a terrible, bad, awful blogger. In my defense, the past couple of months have been absolutely crazy (and I’ve been less than inspired. First off, I officially launched my event planning company, Curry Kay Events,  here. That has taken a good deal of my time as I’ve been working on building that [...]

Lovely Fair!

Hi All, Just got back from a wonderful fall craft fair at a church in my town. I met some wonderful people and talented artists. If you are arriving at this blog from my business card please be sure to check out my Etsy Shop. Have a wonderful fall weekend!

Etsy Front Page

Saturday morning found me on the phone fighting with not one, but two banks, to let them let me transfer money from one account to another. I was stressed. I was upset. This was not how I wanted to be spending my Saturday morning. Then I got an email from the lovely application Statsy letting [...]

My Favorite Color is PeatotBleu

First off, I slacked again and I know I haven’t given a post worthy of reading in a couple of weeks. I’ve been crazy traveling for some freelance work on events and while that’s no excuse… it’s the only reasoning I have! Today was the start of a volunteer reading program I signed up for [...]
