other crafts I do

Here is some of my soap I've done. Not all are in my photobucket yet and might have lost some pics from computer problems a year ago! I do a lot of different crafts. Hopefully I'll find my memory boards I've done and rubber stamping stuff I've done. Plus my light switch plates! Like I said I dabble a lot! LOL ~~ Anyhow hope you enjoy this!

NEW LOOMS!!!!

The UPS man came again today with treasures! He is probably sick of us right now! LOL~~ We own our own company of natural health and wellness products so he delivers things to us all the time. Well lately it has been Yarn and stuff we have ordered. Well it so happened that last week a member of a loom group was selling DAlooms!! I quickly looked at what she had and very quickly e-mailed her with the 4 looms I wanted Hoping I was the first!LOL~~ Hubby was even trying to talk to me and I gave him the hand and told him hush until I got it all done! LOL~~ So I happened to be the first and got EFG loom that is the oval one, and 3 fine gauge sock looms in Extra large adult (hubby has big feet), the adult loom and the youth loom! She sent me a pick with it and also the instructions that she recieved when she ordered them!! So now I can make socks and the Gloves I've been wanting to do and ordered before the loom was even found! LOL~~ So guess what else I'll be playing with?! So Send me your sock patterns! LOL~~ I called hubby who has my cell phone to ask him to pick up more pegs for my pegboard that I have in my craft room since I ran out and needed more to put my new looms on there! LOL~~ So he is going to get them for me. I love to try and stay organised as much as possible, Still have to work a bit ont he craft room as the floor is a mess! Hubby needs to add stuff to my shelves so I can display things better as I do many different crafts. I'll try to find pics of other crafts I do and post some on here sometime. I'm so excited!! Anyhow had to share. Told hubby now I have to get sock yarn! LOL~~ He said nope but, not sure if I can use Peaches and cream for socks or not? Humm guess I'll have to ask!

Part 2

The yarn is stacked 2 deep and then goes up as you can see. I had to push down the purple yarn just so you can see that there is ribbon yarn behind it! LOL~~ I LOVE the yarn and the feel of it all. Now to find the perfect projects for each of the yarn kinds:-)



M My Husbands Hat. It is Black and DARK green. He picked them out. I plan to make a mini scarflette also for him to match. He hardly ever takes it off as he LOVES it! So had to take the picture with it on him.






As you can see I have very little room left for more yarn! LOL!! I'll just have to get looming to make room! I can't wait to PLAY!!!

Second Smiley's Yarn Shipment!

Here is my yarn!! Its not all of it as for some reason blogspot wants to be fussy and not load the rest! So I will post this and do another post. Anyhow I LOVE Smiley's and I'm very happy with their yarn and shipping. I now have enough of the right yarn to make some purses now that I have more colors in Wool. I see lots of different things being made with all my lovely yarn. My shelves are even FULL!! I'm almost done with my nieces present and will post it once it is done. Hopefully will be done sometime tomorrow. It might be a day late getting to her but, she should still be very happy. I'm starting a list of things I want to do and its LONG. I have printed out a lot of patterns and put them into a 3 ring binder book for safe keeping. I have a seperate LARGE 3 ring binder for the totally wonderful Looming Magazine!!! So I have LOTS of ideas. Not to mention all the books on Looming I have. Now its Where or what to start with first? LOL~Well back to trying to upload and also looming!

Well I figured I'd let ya all know what has been going on here. I'm super busy trying to get my soon to be 3 yr. old niece Samantha's b-day gift done. Its a 5 piece project and one of the biggest I've done so far! I'm proud of how it is coming together but, its a fussy project. Nothing like hats or scarfs and so forth. I'm doing the Baby in a Basket project. I'm on part 3 right now so hopefully the last stuff will go fast. I feel the basket part might take a couple days. Hopefully it'll get to her by the 15th!!! Anyhow not to much else going on. I have a purse pattern trying to be converted into loom and I have a dishcloth to test on loom for a super nice lady that is giving me a chance to do this for her! I'm excited to do it and see how it comes out and see how she likes it also. Can't post the how to's as it is not a pattern created by me and I know she plans to sell this wonderful cloth pattern!! You'll all want it! LOL~
So anyhow better get looming if I want a certain soon to be 3 yr. old happy!


Hugs,
Lisa

Here is the scarf to match our neighbor girls pink hat. I think it turned out really well. My husband wants a mini scarflet now also after seeing the boy's one and now this one! LOL~~ So guess I'll make him one also. Will load his hat pic but, haven't taken it yet as he grabbed the hat right after I finished and started to wear it! LOL~~ He LOVES me knitting and supports me soooo much. I'm very lucky:-)
