life in transition...

Well, since the last time I wrote, My hubby and I have moved about an hour away from where we were living, I have quit my job to work full time in my Dad's business (we moved back to the town where I grew up), Jeremy and I have been commuting back and forth from Home to Work for the past 3 weeks. I just worked my last day at my job yesterday. It was bittersweet. I know I'm better off being closer to home and I'm sure I'll get more rest because we're not commuting so much but I will miss the friends that I have met there. Shed a few tears throughout the day.

Besides all the changes that have been happening in our lives lately, we have started to settle into our "new" home slowly and we're just hoping that life starts to slow down a bit so that we can enjoy it.

I hope to get a studio/craft room started up soon but that may have to wait for a bit until things get a bit more organized. Stay tuned... sorry this took so long.

Oh, and another thing... we don't have internet at our place yet and probably won't until the end of the month. Updates may take a bit until we get there.

product 1: magnetic photo cable...

So I actually made these a few years ago to sell at a Christmas Craft Show here in Medicine Hat. I was helping my sister out with her table and we had a bunch of handmade crafts and cards, etc. It was fun crafting together and creating different little items together. I still remember staying up way too late and listening to music and laughing at how overtired we were.

I had seen these online and made my own variation of them. They are a magnetic cable weighted on the bottom and they come with 10 Neodyminium magnets that are powerful enough to keep photos, cards, etc. on the cable. See the photos below.

I hope you enjoy these. I will be selling these at the Tilley Craft Fair in November this year and any extras will be sold in my etsy shop... to be opened soon.

Until next time...

They arrived...

My business cards arrived which is pretty awesome. I'm excited to get crafting, packaging, and prepping to sell my "wares". I'm really looking forward to what may come...

behind the scenes...

There is a lot going on at home from having visitors, contemplating future plans while trying to live in the present, collecting craft supplies and ideas (by the ton!), etc. Through all the chaos, I am reminded that the Lord is in control and He knows what the plans are for us (Jeremiah 29:11).

I have slowly been working on making more crafts as well. I started up an etsy shop but I don't have anything in it just yet. I'm wanting to have things prepared to ship first beforehand so that it will be a quick transaction.

Also, I have ordered business cards to include in the packages that I will be sending out to people who buy my products. Now I just have to wait for them to arrive and I gotta get going on my items! Wish me luck :)

Stay tuned...

I'm still here...

So I'm at a stand still. Progress on my "craft room" has been going good but Jeremy and I are having some questions about whether or not we should move which means that I don't want to settle in too much just to uproot again. Not quite sure what to do but for now, everything is temporary.

Until next time,
