I have been pining over NYE decorations and party ideas this year. Salivating is more like it. What great NYE inspirations, blog friends! Now it's NYE tomorrow and I have no plans. At. All. I decided that I would have my own online "party" of what I would include if I could. I hope you enjoyed it.

One glittery item that I did complete this week was my gold, glittery nails. They probably won't last long on my fingernails, but I'll love them while they last!

Crochet along update: hat

7 Comments »



Oh hey. Yeah, this isn't a hat. However, I am really proud of it. I struggled this month with learning how to double crochet. I watched videos on YouTube. I asked for help on Twitter and Instagram. I practiced. I can now proudly say that I've got it. 

However, my problem with it is that I cannot yet relate it to the pattern. This will be my hope to master some day. Perhaps I'll add this to my list of "resolutions" for 2013?

I had intended to post more this week. Unfortunately, this is what happened.

The red line is where my spine should be.

How did I do this? Rolling over to turn off my alarm clock. Laaaaame.

On top of this, I got that terrible cold that's been going around.

How have you been doing?

Three people (that I know of) had their babies this week. Amazing!
I couldn't wait to share my excitement over this with you all but I had to wait until the gift actually reached its destination. I am still not 100% sure it is there, but I could not wait any longer!
Remember when I posted about turmeric dye? Well, this is that original, long-sleeved onesie that I dyed. Next, I wanted to add some fabric "scales" to the front. I upcycled a couple of well-loved clothing items to use as the scales.
At first, there was just the gray scales but I wanted something more and added in the blue scales as well. I really like how it turned out; it looks like it has more depth.
