American Flag Magnets

Todays Project! I started working on these yesterday and finished up this morning. It took me longer to get them attached to their cards than to handpaint them all! I did several different designs for my line called Patriotic Splendor. 3 different designs for a standard size flag magnet, a flag star, and a set of 2 mini flag stars. Check out the pics.

My Princess Frame

I finally finished the My Princess frame I've been working on. Check it out! So cute for any little girl.

Working on the frame, handpainting each letter. Fun!

Cucumbers Anyone?

Me and Katie went out to water the garden this afternoon and decided to pick some cucumbers. How about 12? Oh my! Cucumbers anyone?

This is our first garden, so I am excited with how well it is doing. But I have no idea what to do with all these cucumbers.




Our first tomato. :)













My flowers are blooming! I germinated these guys from seeds this spring. I am so excited I didn't kill them!!!!

Welcome!

Hello everyone!
Welcome to my blog, I am glad you found me. Blogging is a new experience for me, so forgive me if I don't get this right.

So why did I start this blog? Well, I have recently decided to turn some of my hobbies into products that other people may be able to enjoy for themselves. I found a wonderful website, www.etsy.com, and I can make whatever my heart desires and post it there for sale. It really couldn't be any easier. Forget ebay! (err...feebay)

I am finding that this constant creative mind set I am in is almost exhausting! I am sure all my fellow etsians understand this. Sometimes I have to force myself to take time and just zone out and focus on something else for a while. I am having a great time making things and listing them, it has been nice to get back to 'work'. (i am a stay at home mom to an amazing almost 2 year old little girl, which you will meet later!)

If you have a moment, check out my store. www.katiesuecrafts.etsy.com

It is totally a work in progress, I am trying to add a few new things a week. I opened shop the end of May and have had 3 sales (thanks Heidi:)) I have been making a lot of boyish things and was inspired to go girlie. So I am almost done with a cute "My Princess" frame. Lot's of handpainted pieces, so it is taking a lot of time. I thought it would be neat to blog about my projects and post 'making of' photos, so I will post the finished product a little later. I think it's neat to be able to see where and how things are made.

Check back a little later today and my new frame will be listed at my etsy store and I will post a few pics here about how I made it.

Thanks for stopping by!
