On a busted afternoon...

I haven't blogged since I first started up my shoppe, so here goes! :) Things have been hectic in my schedule the last several weeks to say the least!

It's FINALLY autumn in Northwest Ohio...and I LOVE it!!! Harvest/autumn is my favorite time of year. Its a cold and very windy day out...although I could do without the spitting of rain every now and again.

So far I have a handful of items listed in the shoppe, all of which are crochet. Soon I will put up some canned goodies, crib mobiles, quilts, and some other items. I just need to get in gear! :) Definately easier said than done!

I am in the process right now of completing my very first custom order!! I am stoked! It is a pair of charcoal grey wristlets. I am also working on a present for my youngest nieces birthday (which is Wednesday), and my mothers birthday present (Oct. 4th). I am also working on some cowl designs to put up on the site.

I can't believe it is almost October. I'm afraid that the next couple weeks are going to be slightly grumbly, and I really don't want to find myself in a funk again. The last six months have gone by quickly, and I have finally pulled myself out of my funk coma. I think the shoppe has really helped with keeping me busy, along with school..work...life in general.

Well, enough of this blog stuff...I've got to get back to work if I want to get dinner made, projects completed, homework done, etc....lol!

Cheers!

Open For Business!!!

Well, I am proud to say that Nutshell Farms is officially open for business on Etsy.com!! One more thing accomplished (mostly) on my ever expanding to-do list! :) I'm really excited about this new venture in my life right now, as I have been wishing/planning to open my own shop for some time! As I sit here typing this blog; I am thinking (and stressing) about all the other items on my to-do list, watching a Lifetime movie about my favorite artist Georgia O'Keefe, and basically basking in the excitement of FINALLY putting my shop together.
There will be many more items to come, I'm sure the next few weeks will be a frenzy for me as I'm trying to juggle work, school, homework, house stuff, and life in general.

I am going to try to keep my blog updated, as it will be tied into my shop. If you have never checked out Etsy before, you should (not just because my shop is on there lol)! There are so many cool things on there just to look at. I must get going...life is calling! Thanks everyone for your support! :)

I almost forgot to post the link to my shop! :)
