baby it's cold outside

i woke up this morning to the smell of my neighbor's wood burning stove and thinking for a second that we were somewhere in the mountains camping. then i realized....nope,just forgot to turn up the heat last night! i can't believe how cold it is out in the mornings already! the temperature says 39 degrees fahrenheit. brrr....

just in time for the cold weather, i've added a second hemp scarf to my shop. this one is super long but just as snugly warm! would be great for a guy or a girl. such a sweet scarf :) free shipping in the usa (for either scarf) to anyone who mentions this post!

speaking of cold....my guy and i are getting a much needed break this weekend and heading up into the mountains to check out our cabin we'll be renting for the week of the wedding. we're staying at a lodge with private hot springs....i can't wait! man, i can't begin to tell you how excited i am to be getting a break...plus we'll be getting a bunch of things for the wedding taken care of and anything wedding related is fun too :)

off to read some other blogs then to create!

have a grateful day!

yay! i've been being productive lately. i added a new coaster set in my etsy shop. they're reversible and all about the funk. i made a few other goodies as well....but i still need to kick up my productivity a notch. that won't be happening this weekend though. we're headed up to the mountains for another camping trip...finally! i'm excited to get up there and just relax. i'll post some pics when we get back, it's just too pretty up there to not share with all you fine folks!

i'm off to take the kids swimming for the day then we'll be watching the steeler game tonight. woooot!! hope everyone has a fantastic day!

word...

i finally came back to my blog and my computer suddenly dies :( it was a bad week without it! but i'm back in business now with a super computer...i love her.

so i've been making a lot of custom goods as of late. which is cool....i love working with someone to create something that is truly unique and that they love! i've also been making some things for our house. it's amazing how a room can change by adding some new funky curtains or mod podging a lamp. we got a bunkbed off freecycle for the kids and are going to repaint it this week too. i'll post some before/after pics when it's all done.

we're off to the mountains this weekend for a much needed break from life. i can't wait!!! we're going to a new area this time...it'll be good times. hopefully we don't encounter anything that'll try to eat us. i heard a week or 2 ago that up near denver a mountain lion went through someones window and killed their dog while they were sleeping. crazy, eh?
i can't believe how summer is just zipping right by. i'm glad the weather stays nice here through October. i'm not ready for the cold again.

anyways...the pics of hand dyed hemp are coming soon i promise! think i'll go dye some more up right now! happy day folks :)
