I finished a thing, also. It’s kind of a small thing but it’s very cute.

I haven’t started yet. :see_no_evil: I’m hoping this weekend maybe…in between loads of laundry. :sweat_smile: Our dryer was broken for a week and we just got the replacement installed and running last night, so now I have mountains of laundry to catch up on.

I haven’t started either. I have a few days off. I am going to start then. I have ideas.

I finshed a small thing last night but I need to make the _____ _____ for it to sit inside. And maybe a few other quick things to hang out with it :slightly_smiling_face:. Cryptic updates are the best :joy:.

Now the real question is, do I make those companion pieces similar or disparate? I can see an argument for either. We’ll see where the craft gods take me tonight!

I’m going to try and finish up Item #3 this weekend. I should also pick up a box and make sure everything is going to fit, lol.

I really like this thing that I’m nearly finished with. May have to do a repeat of this for myself…. :smiling_face:

I pulled out all the supplies to make my first piece on Wednesday, then dug through my stash of bits and bobs to find the perfect components for it. I was thrilled with everything I found. It sat, perfectly laid out, on my cutting table, while I finished ongoing projects, and got things long neglected during the Garage Sale taken care of. Then today, as soon as the kiddo was down for a nap, I opened the ______ ______, only to discover it was unusable! :tired_face:

I freaked out for 10 minutes, trying to figure out how to salvage the idea I was so excited about, without buying anything new. Fortunately I found a bag of _____ _____ ______ in the same container, that was still good. I got the _______ pieced and cured. Then, I realized I was reheating leftovers for dinner, so I had a little more time to play in the studio. So I set my ________ _______ going, while I dug out some materials for an ___ ______ / _____ ______.

All in all a productive day, despite early setbacks.

I tried something new today and I’m completely and utterly in love. It came out soooooooooo pretty! Eeee! I am so tempted to keep it but I will be good and tuck it in @tendstowardschaos’s box.

I just need to finish a ______ _____. And maybe paint a _______. Then make a _____ _____ to hold the various ______ _____'s I made. And I reallllllly do want to make a _____ _____ _____. But then I’ll be done.

I am definitely behind. :see_no_evil: I have rough outlines of ideas of plans, but haven’t started anything yet. I have a couple work deadlines breathing down my neck that are inhibiting creativity. But I’m hoping this week/weekend will be better. :crossed_fingers:

I finished up item #3 tonight, and now I have a kiddo breathing down my neck for one of his own. :joy: I may try one more thing before sending. I forgot to grab a box from the post office, so I don’t know where I’m at for space.

The “big” piece is well on it’s way to being done on time. Whew! I have a loose idea for a second item that I think I can start in the next couple of days.

Yesterday I worked on my second piece during nap time. (I’m contemplating my next steps on piece one, and want to mull it over before moving forward.) I did some layout and layering, arranging and rearranging. And some distressing. Then when I was happy with it, started ______ things down. Hope to mostly finish during today’s nap.

Oh, and bumped into an already made extra to include!

I am behind too. I had other things I had to work on this weekend and didn’t get to start like I wanted to.

My “larger” addition to the box is complete and now I just have to work on getting the rest started. I’m doing a cleanout of my craft room this week and will be able to make good progress after that. :slight_smile: I’ve let the room turn into total chaos and even for me it’s too messy to create in. Every usable surface area is covered.

I can so relate to the messy craft room! I had to hunt in mine for 10 minutes to find a tote that had tools in it! :neutral_face: Definitely have to do some organization soon!

I love “already made” extras. I have a few of those skittered about to choose from. Box filler! :smiley:
