Peanut Butter the Jelly

My husband and I went to the Women's Festival of Crafts in Burlington this weekend. It was an amazing collection of artists. I had a budget to spend on myself, and despite there being TONS of things I wanted, there was just one craft I absolutely had to have. Meet Peanut Butter the Jelly:

This crocheted jelly fish is nearly 3 feet long with all of it's lovely twisty tentacle thingies...and is made of lovely wine-colored yarn. Peanut Butter the Jelly was made by the very kind and very talented Erinn Simon of Burlington. You can visit her website or Etsy shop for a ridiculous collection of adorable creatures. (Picture above courtesy of www.erinnsimon.com).

PB the J is now living above my desk in my art studio where he will no doubt attempt to ensnare my husband's puppet collection in his twisty tentacle thingies. He will also bring great joy to me as I create little creatures. I'm so happy.

I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving! I'm going to hunker down now to finish up some amazing little secret projects I'm working on. The veil of mystery will be lifted soon!

100 Sales & Giveaway

I am so grateful to announce that my little Etsy shop has reached 100 sales!!! I originally opened my shop in 2006 to sell paintings of birds on wires, but reinvented myself this past year. I listed the first 20 needle felted items on March 2nd. Since then, I've received so much positive feedback, made so many friends, and have grown my art immensely (go take a look at the first few listings!) In celebration of the first 100 sales, I'm offering a giveaway! The giveaway prize is the Plumpie that started it all - featured on the Etsy Finds blog and the item that generated the first wave of real interest in my shop - the sitting fox . I will make you one of your own, but you can see an example below: To enter the giveaway, simply leave a comment with your contact information. One entry per person. The giveaway ends November 26th at 8:00 pm EST , with the drawing on November 27th. I'll announce the winner on Saturday, November 27th.
