Spinning

Lorena on December 18th, 2011

You may or may not remember but things with the blog last weekend were a little up in the air – so I didn’t post a recap. So this week’s post is extra big, and continued after the cut! Oh, and in case you missed my other announcements, HaldeCraft will be taking a slight break from December [...]

This week I brought a few new products into Wild Iris Books, but I haven’t had time to get any listed online yet — so I’ll have to just give you a teaser photo: — I’ve also been working on putting an email newsletter together. It’s something that’s been in the back of my head [...]

1. Frankincense & Myrrh scented “That’s not a football!” soap 2. Virgins Mary – clearly an idea before its time, because sales on these have completely dropped off. Some people have told me that they can’t choose between them because they’re all cool, but still. “Eenie meenie miney mo,” people. Sadly, I don’t think I’ll [...]

My apologies for the wonky formatting in this post — clearly I can not brain today (I have The Dumb, as the kids say). The only yarn I uploaded this week was handspun, two skeins of a 100% Corriedale. Pretty, if I do say so myself! And now for ceramics… 1. Pair of brown owls [...]

Whew – what a week, y’all! I had a lot to get listed, plus getting ready for the July Craft Market, plus take care of some personal things this week (I know, I have a personal life that doesn’t involve crafting?! If it makes you feel better, one of the things I was doing was [...]

In retrospect, I probably shouldn’t have set the goals for this that I did, since I was on vacation for the first nine days of the Tour. What is the Tour, you ask? Once a year, when cyclists in France take to the roads, spinners all across the world sit in front of the TV, [...]

This week I listed almost more soap than the law should allow. Let me show you the other stuff first… 1. South African Fine – new handspun in the shop. 2. Pink Clouds African Violet pot – new combo! I’ve had this item in different colors, and this color on different items. They meet again! [...]

It’s actually about two weeks, but I’m only going over the last ten days because I listed so much over the last two weeks that even *my* eyes are starting to cross. Oddly, sales have been down since I started uploading so much… weird! I went ahead and did three different mosaics for the different [...]
