Creating. . .

It's hard to believe that all of this. . .


Can become all of this. . .




I saw this on another blog, Shanty2Chic, and fell in love with these jars. I went to Hobby Lobby and bought all the stuff I needed (except they were out of the actual jars that she used - I bought the mason jars that have smooth sides and are made for crafting instead) and whipped up these little beauties in just a few hours. I am also going to make me a set of white ones for Christmas. Won't they be just lovely filled with red and green peppermints?!?

Craziness . . .

Wow! It sure has been busy around here. I have had the hardest time getting back into the swing of school (both working at a school and working on my masters). I usually don't have too much of a problem adjusting but just can't seem to find enough time to do the things I like to do. Things seem to be settling down a bit so I look forward to some more sewing and creating. That's what's relaxing to me and I am ready to get back to having some time to relax. I must say though, even with the hectic schedule and the everyday hustle and bustle I wouldn't change a thing!
Life is good!
