Earring Cards!

Laura and I are working on our display for an upcoming Starving Artist Market.
We also went by the venue, Good Road Ciderworks, and had a look at the space where we’ll be setting up, Oct. 2, 2021, from 1-6pm. We can do this!
Laura and I have booked our first craft show together! We will be selling at Good Road Ciderworks in Charlotte on Oct.2, 2021!
We have been accepted by the Starving Artist Market Charlotte vendors. More to come…
It has been almost one year since I have posted. It was a most depressing year with a quarantine, political unrest, remote learning, vaccine development, and mask wearing.
You’d think with all that home time, I’d have done a lot of crafting. Not so. Moving to our second home in Charlotte, homeschooling, and clearing out Mama’s house have been my main occupations.
I went a year without seeing my friend, Laura. Now, we’re able to visit, and we are still planning to work a craft show.
My current project is making gift envelopes from magazine and catalog pages. Laura and I will use these to package jewelry that we sell at said craft show.
This is my favorite video on making envelopes:
I’m enjoying this quite a bit!
Vivi made ear cuffs from ribbon crimps- her idea!
We’re making soap with different colored layers, today!
My granddaughter is so proficient, all I have to do for her is cut the soap into blocks!
Ta Da!!!
That’s right. Today, on my birthday, I am ironing paper grocery bags!
I think I got this idea from the old HGTV show, “Room by Room.” (with Matt and Shari, you can still find them on You Tube.)I am making photo dummies in different sizes. 
I have a photo canvas being created right now that will be 16×20″. In the meantime, I can carry my paper dummy with me to see where it fits best.
I like it flanked on one side with a couple of 8×8’s.
Today, I’m making fairy lights for Vivien’s recently remodeled room at home.
I am using a string of white bridal lights, all-purpose white glue, and pieces of glittered, pink organza ribbon, cut on the diagonal, and tied in knots on each bulb.
