Long weekends tend to make for looooooooooooong transitions back to the real world.
Here it is Wednesday and I’m just starting to rise out of the fog.
It’s hot as holy hell around here and if you give me a minute I’ll think of more things to complain about.
If I spent the same amount of time actually doing the things I need to be more productive and motivated instead of just bitching about shit and fantasizing about mid-day naps, I would have completed more this weekend than just setting up my dress-form and getting the bejeezus scared out of me everytime I woke up in the middle of the night to see the shadowy form of its naked, headless, legless body standing just feet from our couch/bed.
The dress-form is supposed to be the first step of many on my path to sartorial success on Etsy. I have to remind myself to stay positive despite the fact that the last thing I made was this, preceded only by this.
Clearly I’m far from prolific but I hope if once I get some free time in the near future I can get crackin’ with all of this pent-up creativity itching to burst from my fingertips.
Speaking of Etsy…
My friend Kate, who moved to California earlier this year to escape the evils of the East Coast, has her own Etsy shop up and running and her creations are FAB-TABULOUS!
Kate sells her own custom-made crocheted & knit items along with vintage home goods and gorgeous photo prints.
Do you have a dog?
Well HOLY SHIT, yo. Kate even makes her own dog treats!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand to sweeten the pot even more, Etsy is currently having their Christmas in July sale so select items in her store are 10-20% off their already freakishly reasonable prices!
So hop to, people! The Forest Campfire Clutch has my name written all over it so you should probably hurry…
