Come See Us This Saturday!

Lately my mom and I have been feverishly working to prep for our October Craft Show.  Since we thought we’d be moved into the new house before this show, we stored almost all of my crafting supplies in storage.  I thought I would have a week or two to craft my heart out in the new house before unpacking everything else, but boy was I wrong.  Recently we found out that our Closing date has been pushed to mid October (the 18th), so I had to go to plan B and dig out as many crafting supplies as possible and tote them to my dad’s house.  I’m doing what I can with what I was able to find.  We tried to keep all of my crafting supplies in a general area within one storage unit, but that’s not as easy as it sounds when things are packed ceiling-high.  Nonetheless, its frantic but so much fun!  I hope to see some of you at the show.

Adams County Fairgrounds – 9755 Henderson Road (same as 124th Ave.) Colorado

Time To Load The Jeep

StuffedRoblins
The Mini Roblins are all sewn up and today I’ll be loading the Jeep.  I’ve made a serious checklist to be sure that I pack everything that I need – or may need for tomorrow.  Our set up time is 6:30am, so I have to make myself go to bed by 9pm.  This is easier said than done, but I’ll try.  In addition to these little fellas, I’ll have my Roblin Tees and onesies, Roblin Paintings, quilts, and headbands.  My momma will have her lovely jewelry, soaps and dream catchers.  I’m so excited!

More Roblin’s for the Market

I’ve stayed up late last night tagging and sewing up the mini Roblin’s for the Market this Saturday.  Tonight I plan to stuff them and add the price tags.  I just love making these little guys.  Oh, did I mention that they will be a very Special Mother’s Day price?!  heeheehee

Make, Make, Make

Roblin

These past couple of weeks have been super busy with getting my braces on, wisdom teeth pulled, selling our home and buying a new one, as well as prepping for this year’s Spring Horseshoe Market!  Phew.  I’ve been squeezing my craft time into every minute possible.  I’ve been making up a storm, actually.  I’m so excited to share my latest product – mini stuffed Roblins!  They’re different from the larger ones that I’ve been making and I think they’re perfect for your young ones.  They’re smaller for kids to hold and super soft.  This is just a sneak peek, but I’ll be selling them at the Market this Saturday and then add them to the shop later next week.  I can’t wait!

{life lately} a new series

Welcome to my newest weekly series, {life lately}!  In hopes of connecting with you even more, I’ve decided to share snippets of my daily life on a weekly basis – every Saturday, in fact.  I live an ordinary life with some extraordinary people (and pets) and tend to see the world through rose-colored glasses, and that’s the truth. 

Anyhoo, this past week has been so busy with my Birthday (which was celebrated over a whole weekend – thanks everyone!), work and craft show prep for today.  It’s been a real whirlwind of making new totes, scarves and quilts for the show and shop.  Next week looks to be pretty busy as well.  I plan to update the shop, first and foremost, then work on my “secret” product, due out this Holiday Season.  I’m pretty excited about it.  Oh, and the mister surprised me with a 50/mm lens for the Nikon for my Birthday!  This is just what I needed to inspire me to take the camera everywhere!  So get ready for some photo time.  This week I also sent out invitations to our annual Halloween party, and I’ve already began to brainstorm what I’ll be making.  Can’t wait!

Speaking of Halloween, I haven’t had a free moment to decorate, yet, but plan to squeeze that in late next week.  I just love Halloween and all of the creepy treats, decor and costumes that come with it.  I already have my costume idea, I just need to make it!  What are you planning to be?  Not sure yet, well here’s a {diy} to keep you busy in the meantime.

Today you can find me at the Adams County Fall Craft Show with my mom and cousin.  We’ll be here all day, so stop by if you’re in the area. ♥R
