I'm Back...and I've got a Snowman Refridgerator!

Hello crafty world! November was an insanely crazy month for me. We unexpectedly had to move from a home we had just moved into at the the beginning of the year. I have learned that I HATE packing! Luckily we are blessed with some amazing friends and we were able to get it done quickly.

I've finally unpacked my crafty space and am ITCHING to get back into the swing of things. One month is a long time to go without crafting! I miss my pretty paper. Even though I am ready to get back into it, I'm also kind of overwhelmed. I don't know where to begin!

Today I started with a craft involving paper, although it's not the kind of craft I'm used to blogging about. The holidays are upon us and I've had so much fun decorating the new place.

It snowed in our kitchen today!

Looking forward to creating and sharing some new projects soon! I am seriously considering doing a December Daily. Anyone have any experience with making one?

Thanks for reading! So...what have I missed in the crafty world?

XOXO,

Life is Good Down at the Fair

This year I decided to enter the scrapbooking competition at the LA County Fair. The fair runs during September but projects had to be turned in by June. So on a boiling hot day, husband and I trekked down to Pomona to drop off my beloved projects.

It was kind of creepy being on the empty fairground! I'm used to the hustle and bustle, as well as the delicious smell of deep-fried goodness.

The Twilight Zone

Waiting for the fair to open to see the results was AGONIZING! Husband was once again a good sport and faced the crowds with me on opening weekend. I entered 7 projects and.......

...they all placed! It was so exciting to see my work up there with all of the other amazing entries.

Have a happy weekend!

XOXO,

Did Ya Miss Me?

I'm back!

The past month has been extremely crazy for me. My husband and I had been looking to move for a few months now but hadn't found anything. Then suddenly, in a matter of a few hours, we not only had found a place but filled out the application and had the keys in our hands! The following week was a whirlwind of packing, cleaning, and all of the craziness that comes with moving. We are just now starting to feel settled. This was the right move for us, despite all of the stress.

One of the best parts is that I get a little more than a crafty corner now. I actually have half of a room along with a closet and some built in shelving. After going from such a tiny space I am now a little overwhelmed by this space! So if anyone has some awesome organization tips, I could use the help!

Before... (can't wait to get to the After!)

I'll be back on Monday with my first Pages From the Heart reveal of the month. I am itching to get crafting again!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

XOXO,
