Hello Ladies.

sweet etsy shop

Hellllloooooo! Krystle here. I just want to share a great find!
Today I got my bridesmaid dress in the mail and it is fabulous. It's a teeny bit loose in the waist and other areas (hello ladies??). But it's nothing that my mom can't handle. I bought the dress from funnelcakefashion's shop on etsy. She did an amazing job and if you're looking for cute, affordable, handmade clothes you would be crazy if you didn't check her out!

:-) P.S. I am going to start on some house slippers tonight while watching the new season of Project Runway!!

2010 - You have arrived!

Hello Ladies welcomes 2010 with open arms and excited spirits!

We had a meeting a week ago to get in unity and to discuss what this next year holds for us as 'Hello Ladies', and our personal goals. I've never been much of a 'goal' person, but this year .... it's pressing me to become that person. So this week, the ladies, and myself are taking some time to figure out what our goals are and then to get a plan together on how to do that! I know that we plan on doing a vintage photoshot this year, so be looking for that one soon.....as soon as it warms up, because Jenna couldn't handle it. :)

We got a dusting of snow here in Central Arkansas today, it was beautiful and reminded me of Colorado SO much, I need to visit someday soon. I know my hubby would absolutely love it.

(Taken from my jeep window while the car warmed up. It was the kind of snow that when it fell it wasn't a blob, each little snowflake was different and seperate....sigh, it's melted now, but we expect more on Wednesday.)

I've been working on my picnic quilt....yay for me, I have the top almost done (just a little embrodiery work and it will be finished) and then I will quilt it.

I think it is adorable, and of course it got me to thinking about more quilts and SO I started 2 more baby quilts.....they are going to be CRAZY cute.

The craft nights at church start back up this Thursday night! A new crop of ladies and new talents to be discovered, I am pretty excited about it. I have learned SO much from these ladies and it's been the best time of fellowship I have had in a really long time!

Wwwwweeeellllll, I guess that's about it! I encourage you to set some goals for this year, even if they are small .... accomplish something!

Look @ what Mrs.Carol made !!!!!

I mean....is there anything more cuter than this neck warmer??? I adore it! Jessica's mommasita made it from a picture I showed her.....such talent....(sigh) :-)

OOO - We want to send our congrats over to Holly at CreateLoves she found out she is having a girl!!!!!

I bought a bunch of old sheets today to make this cute Picnic Quilt! (maybe a couple of them)

You can find the original post over at Smile and Wave.

There are some new items in the Etsy Shop, you should go check them out.....buy something also. :-)

The Ladies are meeting tomorrow night to map out our 2010 game plan. We are expecting amazing things this coming year....

Love you all!!!!!

IT'S CHRISTMASTIME!!!!

We love you guys and pray that you have the best Christmas you and your family has ever had.

More craftiness to come, it's been a little crazy in our little worlds, but we will be back to our old "crafty" ways very, very soon. I made some incredibly cute little "critters" for my neices christmas presents, I will post them tomorrow, they will end up being an item we sell in our etsy shop I am quite sure!

If you haven't finished your holiday shopping, making, or baking, be safe out there!

I Should be Studying

But, I've been making Christmas Presents instead :-). I decided to make handwarmers for my roomies for Christmas because they're so quick and easy. I just finished the first pair and they were a huge hit! Now I just have 2 more to make. I'm so excited because I used some new multicolor yarn for the fringe that one of my roommates actually bought me for Christmas and it's so neat!

Now, back to studying :-). Christmas Break is only 3 days away!!

Be crafty!
