The Masters

Every year I go to the Festival of the Masters at Downtown Disney and every year I'm amazed. They have some of the top artists in the country, chalk artists, and several activities.

While I was there I found a store devoted to vinyl Mickey's (aka Vinylmation). Its so amazing they have this huge table that showcases all the vinyl Mickey's and they have this awesome chandelier.
.

I specifically was looking forward to seeing this artists artwork. She creates all her paintings on recycled pieces of wood.

I saw some pretty awesome sidewalk chalk art...

... and Basin had a sculptor carve Mickey of course out of a 300 pound peppermint soap to display for Christmas. Speaking of Christmas I can't wait! I have been crafting up a storm. Plus I'm going to open my etsy shop soon:)

Hooked!

I'm addicted to crocheting and I can't stop. I just finished another blanket for a Christmas present and I'm half way done with another. I joined a couple swaps so I have a few squares to create for that and a special gift for a dear friend.


Also I went to starbucks today and they have Peppermint Mocha!!! It was perfect since it has been really chilly here.

Yes please!

I received my Rachel Ray magazine the other day and discovered this cute lil guy in a ad. I really want it for my lunch box but they have been sold out for over a week. Maybe they will have them soon. Fingers crossed. I also saw a couple other things I really want on etsy.


This adorable green owl plush:)

Amigurumi Time

I made another owl for The Great Owl Crochet Along. I used sport yarn this time and the owl turned out to be way smaller than the first. I also made some modifications but I'm very pleased with the way it turned out.

At Last!

My Mom, Pam, and Ari came to visit for a week and a half. We went to the beach, Disney, SeaWorld, and so much more. Its always amazing to see my mom but I can't wait to go to Michigan soon to see the rest of my family:)

On our way to Orlando we saw these trailers.....

Crochet-Along

I finally finished one of my owls for The Great Owl Crochet-Along hosted by Karla over at The Itsy Bitsy Spider. It was really fun to crochet this lil guy.

But it took me a couple attempts because I originally purchased wool yarn and found it didn't work the way I wanted it to so I switched over to acrylic and TADA!
Also Its my sister Kels 20th Birthday Today!
Happy Birthday sis!
