Hoods, spoons, and fun!!!

I sold 3 things last month, 2 pens and a wine glass. I got my new business cards, and I've also been working on some projects:


I'm trying to get make some hooded scarves based off of my poncho. This was my first try, and while fun, the fabrics i chose are way too heavy to give to anyone so I'll need to try again. I'm thinking about a fleece one with some decorative stitching?

Very Assassin's Creed isn't it?

 My Grandma saw some butterflies made out of silver spoons on silverspoongallery, and brought me a bag of antique spoons. I'm kind of tackling it one step at a time. I cut it out a couple of weeks ago, and I put it together today.It's still in the pickle pot getting the rest of oxidation off, and then i need to clean up the body and polish everything, and add a pin backing to it, but here's some eye candy:



It IS pretty cute...

I've just about got my pen technique down, I'm getting pretty awesome at it if I do say so myself. I never thought they'd be so popular.

Also newsworthy, we've had our xmas presents bought and wrapped for almost a month now:



The presents to the left are for other people. The patterned baskets are full of play-food for my nieces. I'm using one of those boxes to gift one of my beer glasses. I'm going to have to keep an eye out on sales on these boxes after xmas.





Mine are on the left and Bob's are on the right. You can tell because my wrapping paper seletion is perfect. lol. I stacked them all first so I could make sure to wrap them in alternating paper. I also made that cute little box on the top of his presents out of wrapping paper.
