Kokeshi kids Dolls

I've been making these lately.It's been hard to keep up with posting to my blog when I make something since I have so many things to do(4 kids,facebook,etsy,flickr,emails etc).Speaking of making things,I'm going to my craftstation/studio right now since I have another Kokeshi "calling to me" :o)

Been Busy

I've been doing many things lately,so much that I was getting stressed out.I'd start doing something and get called away by someone only to forget what I was doing.:o( . Well in that time of chaos I did bake some awesome cookies and rolled about 15-20 eggrolls with a friend.
at least those came out GOOD!

I also added a body to this felt doll head that I'd made for my daughter.I'm still figuring out what to change on my pattern since I don't like how her head had to be attached to her body(sounds weird saying that).Anyways she was completed a few days ago and now I'm off to the craft room(maybe tomorrow) to make my daughter a simple cotton jumper or a shirt...whatever is simpler since I've got my "plate full". Maybe things will find their proper order in my life in the next few days(I'm praying) since the boys are back in school....We'll see:o)

It's too late to Blog but I'll do it anyways

Once again I have only a few minutes to post stuff...here goes:
A couple days ago My sons big crayfish(Mr. Crawjers) died. We had him 1 year and though he looked like a big bug, we liked him...a lot


I've been wanting to do a test run of a craft kit that I made to sell on etsy.I asked my twin boys(8 years) if they'd like to try making one (a felt keychain that looks like a Popsicle).They said o.k. so it's a matter of getting my butt in the basement(craftroom) to get started.
I have to teach Children's Church this week so I also need to plan a lesson and a craft for 12-16 pre-K kiddies.
Looking forward to 4th of July!!!! Hooray for independence...I even made the above felt keychain to celebrate the occasion. Enjoy your day and your freedom.
