i am an (orna) mental case…

never kick your washing machine.

wonder woman, i am not.

It looks like I will be taking a few days off from ornament making, due to a washing machine mishap. Due to a sprained wrist, due to a washing machine mishap. Last week, my dinosaur of a washing machine stopped working. I was pretty positive that it was a goner, until I looked it up [...]

Well, maybe not done…there will probably always be something else I want to do in here…but I DO feel as though it’s looking pretty good.

I have been meaning to make some NFL themed ornaments for probably 3 years now. Not even kidding…I bought a huge stash of NFL fabric in every team forever ago, and it has just been sitting there looking at me ever since. Though I have really WANTED to…I could possibly have a couple of new [...]

reality check…

Every once in a while I get overwhelmed with my orders and waiting list, and a little bit stressed when I think of all of the people who are patiently waiting for a couple of months or more to receive their ornaments. With that being said, sometimes I need to give myself a little reality [...]
