Etsy V2 & stuff

i'm really excited for V2 of Etsy.com, which is happening this weekend... hopefully! it's gotten all worked up and i hope people will learn more about our wonderful world of handmade crafts!

since my last entry, i've designed a business card/banner/avatar/logo for ThreeHeartsDesigns.etsy.com. it was a pleasure working with jennifer on developing her brand identity and i know her company will grow further with her new look!

i've also completed a scarf and hat using the knifty knitter loom. omg it was so easy to get those projects done. my cousin bought a set on sale at joann's last weekend and the whole time we were at her place making hats and scarves to our hearts content! i didn't get to finish mine so i borrowed her loom and since then have made a few more pieces. sigh, if only crochet and knitting was as easy. part of me feels like i'm cheating, but i needed some gratification of finished projects. i'll post pictures soon.

last weekend i also attended the launch party release of Craft Magazine. It was a small, cute event with people dropping by picking up a copy and a cupcake and chatting it up. it was nice to go to something i can identify with and realize that people of all ages love crafting. i swear crafting can save the world... it will save the world one day.
