Crazy busy, so many orders to ship, so that is good. I can hardly walk through my workshop, which is now the upstairs hallway, there are half-finished projects strewn everywhere. Fortunately for me, I over-bought supplies last year, because EVERYTHING is impossible to find unless I want to pay a premium. My wholesale supplier has "out of stock" on every craft item I need, and it has been that way for 2 months. Jingle bells are especially hard to find. Again, last year, I bought about 500 tiny rusty bells, I think it cost me $9. I found one person selling them--the cost for 500? $40!!!! And I thought the price of steak was insane. Here is a group of things I finished with my precious hoard of bells.

Cute, cute, cute, Elaine! I'm glad a set of your blocks and one of your cut-outs is headed my way. ;-) ~Robin~ (PS...curious about the block in the last photo...I may be being obtuse (been a long day), but what does it say???)
ReplyDeleteI am so glad they are off to a good home! The last block is Gothic script alphabet, I think it is a U.
