Finished!

I finally finished the Gryffindor ornament!

Click here to see the listing!

I'm also almost done with some felt initial ornaments. But I'll post them tomorrow.

Night all! :)

Lazy Sunday...

...well it would be if I didn't have kids. :) Haven't gotten a lot done today, but it has been kinda relaxing. :) I think I'll have the Harry Potter ornament done by tonight. That's it for now!

Later! ;)

Happy Sunday! :)

Good Morning! :) I stayed up too late last night how about you? I did get a lot done though. All I have left to do on my Harry Potter ornament is the wording and sewing a back on. Oh and I made a quick sculpey piece last night too.



It came out prety cute, and it didn't take that long to make. I would have kept doing clay, but I thought our Movie/Game night guests were going to be working in the diningroom (which is where I am set up at the moment), so I cleaned it all up. Of course after I finished cleaning, they decided to play games in the kitchen instead! ~sigh~ Oh well, at least I got one made.

Tony (DigitalMushroom) didn't end up coming last night, so we'll have to post his stuff on Wednesday at Craft Circle. Alright time to finish this ornament, so I can get it posted! Then pics of the new stuff later (if it stops raining).

Later!

Last one tonight!

There happy Amber? ;) I do think I need to outline the lion, though I think I'm gonna wait and see what it looks like with a little more detail first.

Later!

By popular demand, more pics of my ornament.

So here is the progress on my Harry Potter ornament. I haven't gotten a lot of time to work on it, but it's getting there. :)



I think the hardest part coming up is going to be the shading on the lion. Alright time for bed.

Later! :)

Wow time flys when you are wasting time...

So hanging out in the FS Chat on Etsy is not a very good way to get things done. It's actually the opposite of getting things done! :) Well now that my kids are all awake and fed (and I'm no longer hanging out in the chat rooms), I think I shall attempt to finish my Harry Potter ornament. Wish me luck! :)

Later!

To Nana's House We Go!

Today is Hamilton day. Heading into Hamilton Square with the kids to visit my mom, so my children stop driving me nuts! They like Nana & Papa's house better then ours cause Nana's house has a kiddie pool! :) Of course I think it's supposed to rain all day, but at least we'll get out of the house for a bit. I'm bringing my felt stuff with me. And I'll either work on my Harry Potter shield, or maybe make a couple quick fall ornaments. Depends on my mood.

I think my magnets from last night came out okay. I need to make a few more "interesting" ones. I think the ones from last night are a little plain. Not that that's bad or anything, I just like the harder to make ones better for some reason.

Okay I think I'll work on Harry Potter, till it's time for the boys nap. I need a nap too this morning! :)

~Yawn~

...man I wish mornings were later in the day... Well anyway, today is Craft Circle Day! I'm gonna be working on some fall and/or back to school magnets in sculpey. It's always easier to work with sculpey when there are other people here, so I'm not constantly washing my hands when the kids go nuts.

I forget what I posted last night, but I did in fact finish the red background (and detail) of the Gryffindor ornament. While I'm waiting for the kids to go down for their morning nap, I believe I will start doing the detail on the yellow outside part.

Oh and I must remember to see who's coming today. I think I might have "extra" people today! :)

Later!

P.S. I missed getting into the Treasury last night by like 5 seconds!!! :P

The husband has returned!

Yay! Now I can work without lots of interuption. Working with no interuption only happens when everyone is asleep! I'm done with the background red and now I'm gonna start on the lion. This will probably be the hardest part, unless the wording gives me trouble. Hmm...well we'll see!

Harry Potter Ornament

So here is my progress so far.

The stiching is taking slightly longer then I thought, but that's mostly cause I'm doing it during the day, when "they" are awake.

Current Project

So my current project (as in the one I'm working on this second) is a Harry Potter felt ornament. I'm gonna make all of the house shields and I am starting with Gryffindor, cause that's the only one I have all the colors for at the moment. If I finish today (before bedtime) I think I'll make up a couple Christmas type ornament designs. I know I'm going to do inital ornaments like I made for the family a couple years ago. They were cute and didn't use a lot of felt. If I had my camera over here I would take an "in progress" picture of the Harry Potter ornament, but it's all the way in the livingroom (meaning it's on the other side of the baby gate) and I'm being lazy right now! :P I promise I'll do it next time I have to break up a "NO IT MINE!" fight. Okay it's hard to sew while typing.

Later!
