Fabric Frenzy

A co-worker of mine brought me a HUGE bag of fabric recently.  She sews (she is actually a great seamstress), and was willing to part with many of her leftover fabric scraps!  I am LOVING IT!  She has wonderful taste, so all the fabric is absolutely adorable.  I am trying to save the bigger pieces of fabric for some bigger projects that Mom and I have up our sleeves (down the road, so do not hold your breath), but in the meantime, here is a little taste of our fabric creations: 

And speaking of fabric, sewing, and whatnot...

"You hem me in behind and before,

And You lay your hand upon me."

-Psalm 139:5

Purple Power

Most things in life change. I would almost go so far as to say that life is just that: a series of changes, and then more changes, and then more. But some things just do not change. The first constant that comes to mind, of course, is God. The second? Purple. It has been my favorite color since I can remember. And that does not seem like it is ever going to change! It was my favorite color when I was three years old, and now, decades later, it is still my favorite color.

So... Here's to the few constants in our lives!

This is a lavender stretchy headband... I think it's adorable for little girls or babies.

Figured I should model at least one of the headbands!

These bobby pins are adorable on!  They are great for gals of any age!

I tried a few hair ties since we had so many requests for them at the last craft fair.

And of course, a ring! (:

"The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.  He will not grow tired or weary, and His understanding no one can fathom." - Isaiah 40:28

"The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory." - Isaiah 60:19

Bobby girl

Although I am not too great when it comes to accessorizing myself, I do have to say that I LOVE bobby pins.  They are discreet, tiny, incredibly functional and powerful... I hardly go a day without wearing them.  As wonderful as they are, the average bobby pins are nothing special to look at. 

That being said....

A new spin on an old faithful!!!

Oh, Baby!

Springtime always makes me revert back to childhood a little.  My sister and I LOVED playing outside together.  We loved dressing up in springtime outfits, we loved Easter egg hunts, we loved it all.  One of my favorite parts of spring are the flowers that come alive.  Lawns get a little greener, and gardens get a little more colorful.  Andrew and I went on a walk last night and our whole street just looked... happier!  Colors, flowers, and big, full, green bushes were everywhere! 

So in honor of childhood, of spring, of flowers, and of the newness that each season of life brings with it...

A time for every purpose under heaven."

Introducting Two's Company Crafts

As you may have noticed, the name of the blog has changed!  Over the past several months, I have blogged less and less and crafted more and more.  There just has not been enough time to do both!  So... as my mom and I are becoming more busy with crafting, we decided it only made sense to tie the crafting and blogging together. Although my mom and I have been crafting together for years, we have only recently begun getting our act together in order to market and sell our little creations! So... my mom and I are now "Two's Company." 

Over the weekend, we made an appearance at Medina Middle School's FIRST EVER Spring Sting craft fair and had a great day!  Everyone we met there was so sweet and encouraging.

Here is a little recap of the day: 

Our next appearance will be at Bark in the Park in Lebanon, TN on Saturday, May 5th from 11am-5pm!  It will be a day filled with lots of shopping, food, pet photography, and even pet microchipping.  Come out and bring your pet... mine will be there!  (: 

And while I am on a roll, hop on over to our Etsy account for a quick look-see!

21

My sister Avery turned 21 last week.  To celebrate, we all went to dinner (by "all," I mean she, my parents, my husband and I, and her boyfriend) downtown.  As far as family outings are concerned, this was one of the best in recent history.  We all enjoyed each others company, and just had a really nice time.  At least... that is my take on things!
