#37 valentine's board at work


this is the valentine's day board 
i made for the unit where i work

i have the names of all the staff on the small hearts that 
outline the big heart
they might not agree 
but it's something to think about
that would make work easier
❛i love my job, i love my job❜

see our christmas board here

#36 love carved on stones


more valentine's day easy craft idea

(how to pictures, click here)

- somewhat more tech-y but still lovely 
than what fred & wilma used 
during the stone age -

#35 lots of love on valentines ♥

it can't get any sweeter than this on valentine's day
with so much candies
but my favorite - conversation candies
embroidered on felt 
that will last a lifetime



lol, call me, be mine, text me, kiss me, i♡ u
can't find these words on love letters anymore 
('we don't write, we text')
they're now on smartphones and gladly, on candies.

#34 under construction


my craft room is under construction
while I make changes 
for a bigger {can't get bigger anymore}
but a better craft room

my stuff are packed and inaccessible
which makes my crafting so limited
but that's not stopping me at all
i'm working on stuff i can make 
in the comfort of my couch or my bed,
the good old fashion way
using no machine, just my hands, basically

coming soon,
my valentine's day crafts

meanwhile, 
the blogging and crafting continue ....

#33 crafting hopes and goals for 2013



Something to look forward to in 2013

blog 

i was able to make 32 posts since starting my blog in september
- never thought i could do these in the beginning -
but
since then it became something i look forward doing everyday.
and this year, 
i declare ...
to add more features in my blog,
to start giveaways,
to learn more about HTMLs,
to do more projects and more DIYs,
♥ to blog more often,
to attract more views

 craft  

there are so many projects i have in mind 
but would love to do more sewing projects using my serger 
and more embroidery projects

home improvement  

so looking forward to a backyard make-over which includes 
building a fire pit and converting an old swing set into a garden oasis

my etsy shop

after setting up my etsy shop in september , 
I still have to post my very first item for sale to be able to open my shop. 
where do i begin ....

the motto of the year 

something to live by...
'if you think and feel positively, 
you will attract back positive events and circumstances' 
(the law of attraction from the book, the secret)

☑ have fun

this is the easiest thing to do, so far

how about you, what's your hopes and goals for 2013?
have a happy and a crafty new year everyone
