New ideas! New excitement! New babies!??!!??

No, not for this girl; I'll keep my perfect, happy family at 2 kids. However, its seems as though everywhere I turn someone that I know is pregnant! This makes my little brain excited and filled with thoughts of cocoons, hats, booties, loveys, and more. To me, there is nothing as sweet as homemade gifts for little ones. I know that my two still have gifts made by me and others, even m boyfriend has his handmade baby blanket (that my 3 year old has somewhat taken ownership of). I know the time, dedication and love that each of these items holds; they are cherished in my home.










I'm also working on building up stock with new ideas and new items. I want to make some items that have a "boutique feel." I have a few great bags and purses in the works. Remember, all of my items are available for purchase through my Facebook and Etsy sites.

Also, right now, due to the frigid temps, you can receive 10% off in my Etsy store by using coupon code "10deepfreeze" at check out. Things are looking good at Eny Time Crochet.

In with the new, but keeping the old.

Goodbye 2012! One of the best years of my life for certain. In reflection, it went perfectly. I have lived a full year with the love of my life, my children have fully adjusted to life in Wisconsin (moved the end of '11) and started Eny Time Crochet. I love my life, and that is a feeling I never believed was possible.

Hello 2013! This year is going to be one of further growth, accomplishments, and awesomeness! I learned so much last year, and grew so much in my craft and confidence. This year, there is going to be continued personal and professional growth. I'm very much a "Resolutions" person, and often I meet them. So in order to increase accountability, I'm publicly listing them here. I'd love for all of my friends and fans to keep me going on my goals.

Goals for Eny Time Crochet

  1. Learn and successfully make something using the Crocodile stitch
  2. Make and have enough stock to do at least one craft show this year
  3. Double the amount of "fans" I have on Facebook (157 as of Dec. 31), and add followers for my blog

I have personal goals set too. Things regarding organization, health, and patience. All I know is that 2013 is going to be a strong year, and I, with the help of friends, family, and fans, I can continue to work towards my goal of making my talent my main deal and continue to raise and support my family while working from home.
