New Scarves Available for the Holidays

It has been one busy year with not much happening here on the blog but I have been working on scarves through the year - albeit slowly working on scarves while spending lots of time with my growing daughter, tending to the summer garden and its bounty along with the usual everyday life of a work at home mom with one very precocious toddler.

I've recently added new items to my Etsy shop and will be adding more items through the week including some jewelry. So please take a look and do share with friends and family. Check back here on the blog to see what's new and Like Crafty Obsessions on Facebook for updates on newly finished or stocked items in my shop.

Updated website

I’ve been slowly, and I really mean slowly, working on my website. I’ve done some updating and it is looking good but I still want to do more to improve it and that is the part that is going really slow (working on making it a little less basic and more appealing).  Being a work-at-home mom with a very busy and precocious 2 year old makes it challenging to juggle and balance all the things on my overall To-Do/Want-To-Do/Need-To-Do list.  I’ve also been trying to get my creative work space back together again (it was all set up and then we rearranged everything to make a guest room space for extended stay of family).  I’m hopeful and anxious to have my creative space completely organized, ready and conducive for some quality creative time.  In the mean time, I continue working on a new Violet scarf that is close to completion and will be posted soon.

A few of my latest projects

I recently completed this fun, bright and cozy scarf that I will be listing in my Etsy shop soon. It would make a wonderful gift for someone.

 

I’ve also been working Holiday Gift Tags that I will be putting in my Etsy shop as soon as I get them in their assortments and photographed for their listings.  If anyone is interested in an assortment, feel free to contact me for more information – Local Pickup is always free.  These tags are hand stamped and hand colored by me and come ready to use for your Holiday gifts with satin ribbon.

 

Custom Thank You notes.

Some of my latest projects

I’ve been neglecting my crafty blog for awhile but I’ve worked on a few projects since my last post. That said I am now finding out what life is like with a very busy toddler and it certainly makes life interesting as well making the time I can scrape together to get a little creative and work on something crafty even more rewarding. I’ve made some doll slings and a plush security blanket which I love both and really hope to make more.

I also made a belly pad for our second car seat since I really like the one that came with our Britax car seat in my car.

I certainly hope to find more little windows of time to squeeze in some creativity & crafting but I have come to realize with my busy girl craft projects are becoming a luxury as well as a lengthier process than they use to be. So this crafty momma will do her best to fuel her creativity through her blogs and crafts while taking in this wonderful journey of motherhood soaking up all these precious moments that go by so quick – for instance drafting this post with my girl on my lap who is trying to type like her momma. :-)
