A New Day

I'm residing myself to the idea, that, although it'll be hard, we may be residing at the inlaws for q while longer.

with that, i'd really like to put up a little cork board in the room we refer to as the 'baby lounge'. it has our big, comfy couch, my writing desk, a changing table and a dresser full of luxy's clothes. it truly is a 'baby lounge', we can take care of the baby AND lounge on the couch or leisurely read/write/study at my desk. so, there's a big of unclaimed wall space and I'm thinking that I could move in a bit of my knitting stuff, and put up a cork board to attatch little inspirational bits, like pictures of flowers, pieces of fabric, words, art, ya know - stuff. Have a tiny space that'll be like my 'studio'. like a four foot space, really. but it would work out I think.

and other than that, I'm REALLY close to finishing my bougainvillea pindles. There are three, which i can't decide if I want to sell as a lot of three flowers and then make a fourth to sell as a single, OR sell each on separately. we'll see.
I'm also dreaming up how to knit a calla lily. Which I may try today after I finish the bougainvillea flowers. And in the very distant knitting future I see daffodils and possible camilias. who knows, it's a lot of fun though. and my purse is done and I have two more lined up. as soon as i get a few more flowers done I'll start on those.

it's so fun to have projects and be creative. I like it. A lot.

OH! and the biggest news! I now have a plumblossomknits business debit card which is funded by non other than.... My Sales!!! wooo hooo! so, I have to get posting some more stuff so I can get some of the things I want. Like:
-cool cardboard backings for my pindles
-some cardboard tags that say plumblossomknits on one side so I can put the materials used and washing instructions on the other side and a-fix them to all the things I sell.
-business cards
(-a cork board? a nifty big basket for my stash of yarn? a rad little crafty box for my pindle creating bits?)

oh, and I really need some really pretty smelling tea candles for - ok so i just spent twenty minutes of my life looking for a picture of a tea light holder that Kim bought me for Christmas, and I just can't find it. BUT be assured, it's really pretty and I love it. and I use it daily and i'll soon be running out of tea lights.

hurumph.

i'm going back to knitting, it's cold, i might also drink tea. maybe.

adios!

    anyway, I have a BUNCH of tealights, some scented, some not, that you can totally have because I never ever use them. Free for you, good stewardship for me. ;)
