The big list :o)

I have added the list of blogs that I visit regularly to the right :o)

The spring list I was talking about on my previous post, starts with a garden shed. We have a small storage space under the stairs and it is filled with all the small garden tools and with some items that needs to be thrown out. Our plan is to clean that storage space and put all the garden related items in to the shed and move all the baby stuff in to the storage. That way we will have an organized garage which became so cluttered, I feel ashamed every time I open the door. But first, of course we need to find a shed that suits in to our needs and budget. We have looked Lowes and Home depot so far and planning to look to Cosco and also to Sam’s club to compare the prices. I hope to have the shed up before it is to hot outside to build. So this is “cleaning the garage” item on my list, I also have cleaning and re organizing the house on my list specially (re)claiming the guest bedroom as my sewing/crafting room, right now I am only using the half of it.

And then there is our veggie garden that needs to be taking care of, last year I had tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. This year I am only planning to plant tomatoes. And also have an idea of having one plant hanging upside down to see if it really helps to produce more tomatoes :o)

I also got the word about another Etsy at the market day here in Ann Arbor Farmers Market. I will not have lots of dolls but it was a lot of fun last year I applied anyway. I’ll know for sure if I get accepted or not by the end of this month. If I do, will have a lot to do still, making Lara&Me shopping bags for example. When, I went to the show last October I just did not want to hand my dolls out in an ugly plastic bags, so I bought %100 recycled postal wrapping paper from Office depot, and set down one night fold the paper in to the bags, add a hole for ribbon handles, glued the L&M design and Voila! a nice paper bag customized to my brand/dolls :o) They were a huge hit, everybody who saw my bags loved the idea of having customized bags of recycled paper. It is a fun and quick project, I should write a tutorial about it some day.

Oh! The doll modeling the bag in the picture is such a cutie, I think I am going to name her Ashley.

‘till next post, Cheers!
