Summer is here?!

So, it's been a while. I've been bad about keeping this updated. Not going to apologize or make silly promises. :)

Things have been crazy around here, like always. Mom's still in school, but the girls are out for the summer. John and I's first anniversary is come and gone. He's now been at his job for over a year. We've moved to the upstairs of the house, so HOLYCRAPSPACE!!!! We've got the whole floor to ourselves which is AMAZING. We're supposed to be getting paint for the bedroom in a few weeks, so once that's done I'll be willing to show it off.

Crafting wise, things are going well. I've now sold three purses on etsy, one to a friend, and have two more commissions. I'm also making one for an online friend, but can't say much more in case she sees this. :)

On to the pictures!


Purse made for my grandma's coworker. And Jass refusing to move out of the way.


 She asked for a huge button and two tassels. The coworker, that is.


Some paper cutting I did. I love how Sherlock turned out.

 
A sheep pillow I made for our new bedroom. The blue background fabric is left over from the wedding. I included all of the colors we're planning on using in the new room.


Three other bags I made. The brown and blue ones are origami bags. Very easy to make and are used as gift bags. The tiny one was used for a charm for my mother-in-law's trollbead bracelet for her birthday. The green fairy bag is a flea market bag. I added straps to it and a velcro closure. Love it so much. Planning on making some and putting them in the shop.


A flea market bag I made for youngest sis. Made one for middle sis, but she snatched it up before I could take pictures. 


We have a new member in the family. Say hello to Phelix! Someone dropped the little guy off at my in-law's and I couldn't just leave him there. Seriously, he's the coolest cat ever. Very, very chatty and just loves to cuddle. And sleep in weird positions, as you can see. :)


Remember that little, tiny puppy we brought home back in November?

 
This is her now. Rotten thing, but we all love her.


 Ivy and her daddy. :3


Well, that's all for now! I have quite a bit more, but don't want to clog this post with fifty million pictures. 

Have a great week! :D
