Though this may look like a small animal being impaled upon a medieval torture device, it's not. This is going to be my brother's Christmas present. He was really excited when he found out I was learning to knit. He wants a beanie. He wants an angora beanie. The Peter Rabbit mug is there to emphasize the fact that it is 100% angora yarn - very fuzzy and very soft. The yummy yarn-in-the-mail that I mentioned before? Sandpaper.
I also mentioned yesterday about all the lotioning I've been doing. I happened to walk by the table this afternoon during the Changing of the Light (a fleeting, glowing moment that happens every afternoon in my west kitchen window), which I have not cleared off yet, and this is what I saw:
This makes my little heart flutter. I've worked hard on some real labels and pretty packaging. I even taught myself how to use some new software to make them. I ordered my first round of labels just tonight. Here's what the front and back of the sugar scrubs will look like:

So, I've been a busy bee. I've also been Calamity Jane - I'm covered in scratches and bumps and bruises.

I think I might do an Etsy shop to start with, but..but....I think I'll sleep for a couple of nights first.
DAILY BLISS: My honey's home!

How amazingly creative you are! I am so impressed and m ready to buy a jar or two or three.
Congratulations on capturing a moment on label
That ball of yarn is huge. It is almost the same diameter as the Eiffel Tower!
Yes. And it cost nearly as much, too:)
