Crunch & munch

Hello & welcome to another late night/ early morning post. I have been up since 10:45pm (work) and I'm counting the hours until I can break free from necessity & continue on my creative journey to Saturday. Thus, I titled this post "crunch & munch" seeing as how now, I officially have 2 days till craft show time! 


This past weekend we were able to get alot done, but left more still for the week ahead.  I have crocheted washcloths (custom orders), made soap (all by my self...go me!) and painted my behind off...with still more crocheting & painting to be done. Truth be told, I could probably get by with what signs I have painted but just dont want to stop.  I keep coming up with more ideas, actually most of them are tweaked versions of something I spotted on etsy or pinterest. Which, mind you, I have no problem with doing seeing as how most crafters do this very same thing. There is no copyright or patent for a 'quote' or idea. If there was, I would gladly stop using it & move on to the next. My fans on fb as well as my friends keep me busy with ideas and custom signs they find. This week alone I have had two ideas from outside sources, one from one of my best friends & the other from a high school friend. I expect that I will have more in the near future.  


This just came to mind, speaking of ideas. If I see a product I want, and I know some way of getting said similar product cheaper & faster, dont you think for one minute that I will over pay! If someone sees a something they want, & they are satisfied with the job I do, I dont care one bit to help them out. EVERYBODY wants to buy things for their home, if I can make that a bit more affordable I will. Does this make sense? Sure does to me :)

Anywho.......I am off to the kitchen table to finish some lettering. Got my ringer turned up, hoping its not super busy between now & 7am so I can finish the sign I'm working on. If I do not finish, I will feel that I need to stay up instead of sleeping a few hours. And everybody that knows me, knows I'm better off with sleep...haha!
