Wow, I've been incredibly busy these past couple of weeks but now that Christmas is over, I should have more time to get back to my crafting! How exciting!! I got TONS of great stuff for Christmas, including my wonderful new Ninja Blender, a boat load of new serving bakeware dishes (since I always complain that I never have enough bowls when I have people over for dinner) AND a Kindle Fire (thanks for my wonderful husband)! I wasn't even aware how incredibly awesome & convenient these things are! I haven't used it for reading yet, mainly because I'm still trying to figure out how to rent ebooks from the library BUT once I find someone tech-saavy enough to show me I'll be a reading machine! Oh, and though I haven't really had the time to be incredibly creative, I did whip up a case for my kindle. Turned out really cute and it was so simple, I'm thinking about making 1,000 more to match every purse I own! Crazy? A bit.
And yes, if you noticed the AWFUL background, I've relocated my crafting table in to my, oh so cold, laundry room. The wonderful wife that I am sacrificed my nice warm, carpeted loft so my husband would no longer have to share his make-shift art studio man cave with me. I admit, I'm kind of messy...okay okay, REALLY messy. On top of that, he got a gaming computer for Christmas and let's just say listening to him yell and rant on and on about how someone he's playing against is 'cheating' is just not my cup of tea! So for now here is my beautiful work space. Don't worry, I have full intentions to get some drywall up and a nice, soft throw rug ASAP!
I've been getting ready for my 2nd annual New Year Day dinner! I'm pretty sure I have the menu all planned out and I'm debating on doing a post with recipes and yummy pictures. We will see, I tend to get incredibly stressed when it comes to having people over, and cooking for that matter. I hope everyone has a great New Years! Stay safe!
Here's some pictures from Christmas Eve/Christmas:
