silk screened grocery bags (not my creation)

My friends, the Searcy's sent us these bags for Christmas. They are so cool and super handy. They have already been used for many things, and will continue to be very useful. I just thought they were so great (and had told some people about them) so wanted to show them off here.

crocheted robots

I found this pattern from a Etsy site that Jen sent me. Liam loves robots and I couldn't resist this little guy. Liam named him David, which is the funniest robot name ever! The girls loved David so much that they begged me to make them one.
This is Lydia's robot, Belle. Lydia chose the colors. I think it is funny that it turned out looking like she is wearing bikini bottoms, and she has the faint outline of a chest (not intentional).

Jen's Christmas Necklace

I had so much fun making this. My sister-in-law requested jewelry for Christmas, which is my pleasure to make. It was so fun to think of the colors, style, and feel for her to wear. She doesn't wear much jewelry and this may be over the top for her. I made it with love, inspired by her energy, so I hope it worked out.
I can't turn the picture for some annoying reason.
