A few pics from a snowy day

Woke up to snow falling outside and lingered for a while under the blankets before facing the day. As much as I hate scraping my car and shoveling the driveway, I do love waking up to a blanket of white outside.

Coffee in a cute foxy mug.

Spent most of the day in here (the office/studio). Still working on getting this room organized. For now, it's a little haphazard...piles of projects stacked on every available surface.

Packed up some orders, wrote a couple of blog posts, made treasuries, and spent lots of time tweaking my tags and titles on Etsy. I wish I didn't have to devote as much time to admin/promotion type activities as I do...seems to outweigh the time I spend making things lately. I guess that's the curse of being a one-woman shop.

I took a break to wade through piles and piles of unopened mail, and after tunneling through, I discovered a whole piece of furniture I forgot we had. ;)

How cute are these ornament coasters we got at IKEA? And also the cover of frankie by Emily Martin is so pretty it takes your breath away a little.

When I went through the mail, I found some treasures, like this camera strap I ordered forever ago, and a cute owl from a pen pal.

Back in the studio to make some things, where I stayed for pretty much the rest of the day.

  4. Looks like you had a lovely day! We just have ferocious wind here and driving rain. Unfortunately I think admin is unavoidable in any small business. Hope you get a lot of good crafting in before Christmas.

  5. That's a lot of snow! So far none here (which I don't mind, being a summer person). I love the treasuries you've received in the mail.

  7. I wish I could've stayed home in the midst of our snow, but alas, I had to go to school. Your day sounds like a lovely one! And it sounds like you've been selling a ton of ornaments this year. Yay!

  8. Oh, I think my comment disappeared at the moment of posting. Let me try again by saying that your bird mobile is beautiful. Did you make it yourself?
