Weekly Etsy 6

We sure do make a lot of weird things.  This week's listings include a doily (yes, a grandmotherly doily!) and some super bright beaded crocheted bracelets.  There's also a lovely little bag designed by the lovely little lady.

Chocolate all the way

Want to see the little guy's choice of birthday cake?  Here it is...

According to the recipe, it's a 'Death by Chocolate' icebox cake.  It's got chocolate mousse, chocolate ganache and oreo crumbs, all topped with chocolate whipped cream.

He made it himself (with a little bit of help from me).  It's the perfect thing for chocolate lovers like the little guy.

Weekly Etsy 5: It's been a busy week

It's been a busy week.  Hari Raya was on Thursday and we've been spending time with family.  I'm trying to be consistent though, so in the end, we managed 5.  I actually wish I could wear those little crochet decorated tops myself.  Perhaps that'll be my next sewing project.

We late, but we made it to 20 listings.  It's all bags again this week.  Some of them a bit fishy.

Little lady's first animation

The little lady has been learning how to animate.  Her latest animations are to help her remember how to spell.  We put her first and second animation up on youtube.

This is the 'Could, would, should song'.

This is the 'Sh song'.

We nearly didn't meet the 5 listing goal this week, but I added a listing this morning, so we just made it.  I think this week is extra special because we have some hand drawn bags by the little lady.  She drew the bags, took the photos and helped with the listings.

Project bags

I managed to finish off some projects and as a result, I was shuffling around my supplies and restocking my various projects bags.  It lead to a little walk down memory lane for me.

I sew these little bags out of calico and get the kids to decorate them with Sharpies.  Here's my current project bag, stuffed full of yarn for a crochet project. The little lady did the drawing about 2 or 3 years ago.  It's a fairy princess with with flowers in the sky over her head and a diamond in the ground under her feet.

Here's one from the little guy at around the same time.  it's a spider, done in big whirly scribbles.

Here's another bag done by the little lady a few months ago.  Quite a different style isn't it?
