This one was not on me...

This is all on my hosting site. It wouldn't let me publish anything.

Although, in full disclosure, I've been pretty busy. More on that after the fiber news.

My neighbor invited me over for an afternoon of felting. It was great fun, so much so, I'm thinking of hosting a similar event.

We felted some soaps and some rocks. I know, weird. But they turned out great. The thing that turned out really well though was this felted box.



After I got home I took a felting needle and felting the word 'smile' on it. I'm thinking of doing some to put up on etsy. My sister, an aunt and I have been toiling away at some kids clothes, so soon there should be more photos. Sorry I've been hoarding, just want to debut when everything is ready.

Here's what the box looks like from overhead, with some little fluff that will probably make it's way to being boxes too.


So besides the formation of the shop (again, details to come when all is a go), I got a J-O-B!

Its still doing graphic design, although most of what I do is design the stuff that goes from your mailbox to your recycling bin, but a job is a job and this one is a pretty cushy one.

And I formed my own company with a friend. We are designing (at least at some point we will) baby announcements and wedding stationery. We get our business cards on Monday. I can't wait! Now that the hosting site is letting me publish my blog again, I'll be sure to take photos and show all of you.

BTW, I want to thank everyone for listening to all my rantings about my unemployment. I really appreciate it.
