Wine Bottles, Paper Mache Style

I found some paper I liked, had some wine bottles laying around, and this was the result. Great to use as a vase, decoration, or whatever else you can think of. These will be on sale on Etsy soon!

I had some left over yarn from my previous blankets, so I made another bow-button scarf. This one will be up for sale on Etsy soon. Turns out that I was using Packers colors, which is perfect considering I live in Wisconsin.

The bow pops in and out of a button hole

It's wide and thick, great for any Packers game!

Pumpkin Painting

Instead of carving pumpkins on Halloween, I like to paint on small ones instead.

Sharpie Mugs

I got in to sharpie mugs via Pinterest. This is one I keep in my office. On the back, I wrote the George Carlin quote on the back: "Cloud nine gets all the publicity, but cloud eight actually is cheaper, less crowded, and has a better view."

Owl and Mustache Magnets

I turn random things into magnets all the time. These are a few that I keep in my office now.

Why, yes, my carpet is shag

Mittens, Hats, and Scarves (Oh My!)

It's pretty well-known that I prefer learning how to knit patterns over how to knit shapes. Even though I've been knitting for 8 years, I just recently started going outside my comfort zone. I've made dozens of scarves in the past, but these are my first real attempts to knit outside the scarf world.
