Peas in a pod.

As I've mentioned in an older post, I was gifted with a amigurumi book last Christmas. The last time I crocheted was like years ago when I was busy learning how to make granny squares. I was really surprised at how quick I picked the skills up again. It was like riding a bike. It's just weird that it didn't feel that way back when I was still in grade school, learning how to crochet for the first time. We would have those hands on tests on the different crochet stitches and I could never seem to remember how to do them at all! I dreaded it so much! Fast forward a few years later, I've realized how fun crocheting is! Just look at the cute little peas I made below! I added some personal touches (beret, flower clip, and cheek blush) on the peas to make them even cuter! I'm thinking what I should do next...

It's a beautiful day!

Today, I made another sale! *yay* I sold some of my card sets. Finding out that someone out there appreciates my stuff is such a rewarding and fulfilling feeling. Today, I was chosen to be featured in a blog too! *wee* My "What's His Face" button is featured in OrigamiCentral's Valentine Feature. Please click the images below to be transported. Thank you! :)

Resuscitate: To restore to life.

After a month of nothingness, I've decided that it's time to resuscitate some life back into my blog. A lot has happened since my last entry (read: holidays). I finally got my button machine last Christmas! That was a really pleasant and awesome surprise from my family! I've also started to crochet again. I got a really cute amigurumi book and some crocheting supplies and I'm having a blast! I'm so glad we had Home Economics class back in grade school. I never knew it would come in handy some day. Plus, I must admit, other than making granny squares, I never really thought crocheting could be so much fun! The little amigurumi projects are so cute! I also got featured in a couple of blogs and treasuries the past month. Here's a shoutout to PinkFlowerCube, 3zart, and Tizzalicious. Thank you so much, guys! Lastly, I added more items to my Etsy shop. Check out my new 1 inch buttons!
