Catching Up

Okay, it has been an absurdly long time since I last wrote anything here. I'm not going to post about everything I've made since then, but I'll try to highlight a few.


My most exciting news is that I've signed up for two craft shows in the next few months. One is here in Bellevue, NE, the other is in Chattanooga, TN. Why Tennessee, you might ask? Well, I went to college in Chattanooga, and it's quite the lovely town and full of artsy people. My parents live roughly an hour and a half away in Georgia, so I'll be able to visit them, too.

The first show takes place on November 16th at the Bellevue University. This will be my first show ever as a vender, so I'm pretty excited. You can see the details for the OESC Holiday Bazaar here: http://www.offuttenlistedspousesclub.com/bazarr.html

The second will take place on Saturdays and Sundays in December leading up to Christmas. It'll be held at the Chattanooga Convention Center. I went to the Holiday Market last year just to shop and I thought it was fantastic. I'm also looking forward to seeing my best friends from college. :D

Alright, now onto the fun photos. Since I've last updated you, I've been working on chichaimon. "What are chichaimon?" you might ask. Well, they're basically a line ball-shaped animals I've created. One of my first chichaimon was a fox, and I think it's pretty adorable.

Another series I've been working on is inspired by "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." I decided to make a line of chichaimon inspired by the characters from the show and I think they are some of my favorite pieces so far.
Here's a peek at the ones I've made so far:
