GRAND SALE
0 Comments Published December 21st, 2007 in New in My Shop, Patterns in Nature, kaybu.com.So that I can spend Christmas enjoying family rather than working on my shop, I’ve posted my post-Christmas and Boxing Day (hello, Canada!) sales now.

Well, I guess wall paper is in again. I don’t know about you, but I don’t think this is one trend I’m going to dive into.

Christmas Ornament Warm and Fuzzies
2 Comments Published December 3rd, 2007 in Ideas and Inspiration.I’m not huge on doing lavish Christmas decorating in my own home. Just give me a tree and a minimalist nativity. I do, however, love making ornaments and filling a tree with small treasures. I think this angel is my favorites of all time. I didn’t make her, I’ll have to have [...]
As my parents’ Christmas tree can attest, I’ve been making ornaments since I figured out how to stick things together. The 2007 Holiday Ornament Swap has me churning out some of these screen printed felt and cotton pinwheels this year. I can’t wait to send them out to my swap group! We just [...]
