New Section Mr. Saffron's Adventures

Ok so, I am starting a new section here on my blog to add a little diversity to what is supposed to be a crafting blog. (I am still working on this by the way.) This new section is going to be all about the adventures of my border collie/black lab Mr. Saffron. (aka: Saffron & Houdini)

The section is titled The Adventures of Mr. Saffron.....A loving & friendly Border Collie/Black Lab.

I am going to write about his daily adventures, his mischievousness, his thoughts, his dreams and anything else he tells me too. Some of the postings will be from Saffron himself, but most will be from me. We will include pictures whenever possible. And we hope you will share pictures & comments with us about your four legged friends. Mr. Saffron loves making new friends, even virtual ones.

So please make sure to bookmark his page so you can visit him frequently.

Updated Profile

I just updated my profile today with some more current information. As things change I plan on updating more so information is accurate and you know more of what's going on with me. I feel it is important to share a little bit about me in order for you to be able to know me better as a person, a crafter and to make a connection. So feel free to leave me comments, send me emails and tell me a little about yourself. I would love to know more about the people who are following my blog, find my posts interesting or just happened to like something that I have said. So please feel free to share your comments, ideas and suggestions at any time.

You can also chat with me on Twitter any time if you can catch me. Just send me a message and if I am on, I will be happy to chat.

It's Been A While........

Well it's been a while since I posted. I would like to apologize for this but I have been very sick for the last 3 weeks and life has been crazy. I am just now starting to feel a little better every day. We finally moved into our rental house the first week of April, but most everything is still in boxes. It's hard to unpack when you are couch ridden. But my husband (Chris) has been doing what he can when he's not at work. Needless to say all of my crafting has been on hold for a long time now, not exactly what I planned, oh well. Life will start getting back on track very soon, it will be slow but it will happen.

So the project for this week is to start organizing my new walk-in craft/massage closet. Yes that's right I said massage, I am going to get back into doing Massage Therapy

over the next couple of months. But that's a topic for a different blog. So I have this huge walk-in closet in the basement that I get to have all to myself and use however I want. So my plan is to organize all my crafting supplies in this closet and then share the large open space in the basement with the game table. I get a whole wall for my crafting table, sewing table and whatever else I can fit there for work space.
This blog is supposed to be about crafting and the adventures that go along with it. I know it hasn't been very focused for a while but I promise to start changing this. So on that note I will be posting pictures and talking about my adventure into organizing my crafting world. Any feedback, comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated and helpful since I am not the greatest at organizing large spaces. My goal is to make the closet easy to use and functional on the smallest budget possible. So start throwing your ideas my way and if they are really useful and I put them to use I will be sure to blog about them.

I have also just started a new crochet project

, a palm tree afghan. I will be blogging about this soon with pictures of the work in progress, the yarns I am using and the chart I made online to help me organize my pattern to make the blanket. I can't wait to start sharing it with you. I hope you will like it.

Well have to go eat lunch now. Gotta keep my strength up to get well and get my energy back. So many new things are going to be happening and I plan to blog about all of it, I hope you will continue to check regularly for new posts and updates.

Talk to you all later.
