Studio-Making
Over a year and a half ago, I arranged a nice little desk in my basement laundry room to serve as my jewelery-making 'studio' space. It worked well enough in the summer when I wanted to escape to the cool basement to create. In the winter, well.. I could always wear polar fleece (I practically live in fleece in the winter anyway).
We have a small bedroom in the basement that's not being used much, so I decided to make the space a little more useful.
Check out my blog for the rest of the story and pictures, if you like. There's still work to do in there, but I have a place to create, and that makes me feel good. I'm excited. I can't wait to get in there and make stuff, but I wanted to share the progress with you and give you the heads up that I'll be posting some more jewelery in the future. FINALLY!!! YAY!

Journal 27 - New vids and a book review
I'm a bad deviant. I haven't posted in a while. I am excited to tell you about my new partnership with AllFreeCrochet.com though! They offered to pay me to make some crochet videos for them, and I recently uploaded Episode Two of a short series I'm making for them called Creating Amigurumi! Cool, huh?
You can find them on my channel at YouTube as well as AllFreeCrochet's channel.

Journal 26 - Jewelery Feature 4
Since I finally set up two new boxes on my profile page that feature my recent favourite amigurumi and jewelery, I won't post these journal features as often, but I wanted to point out a few recent faves to my friends who might not have visited recently, but would read this. XD

My kids are loving pokemon right now and I know when they see this they're going to look at me with the puppy dog eyes and ask me to make some pokemon amigurumi for them. How can I top this one though? SO Cute.

Yay! That looks like a nice little place to work in. I just wish I could get my room cleaned up.
