{Dress It Up With Bows}

i am always to trying to find new ways to dress up my projects. recently i came up with the idea of using satin ribbon. satin bows, of course, make any hat look so much cuter but i never thought to add them to the little crocheted baby boots. instead of using buttons i attached satin bows and i must say they turned out so much cuter than i thought. the pictures really don't do them justice. a sweet, dear friend of mine offered to sell some of my projects at a craft fair held at her church in vacaville, ca. below are a few of the things i am sending her way! :) thanks sweet friend of mine!

{Why all the crocheting...}

i can remember back when i was younger spending a lot of time with my dear sweet grandma. she was and still is a very special and very important person that the lord has given to me. in that time growing up i can remember doing all sorts of things with her. spaghetti dinners every tuesday, garage sales anytime, doll shopping all the time, ceramic painting some of the time, playing yahtzee a must, but when it came to my grandma's hobby of crocheting, I was NOT interested. funny now, considering that i can't seem to get the crochet hook out of my hands. my grandma came out for a visit not so long ago and while spending some time with her she taught me how to crochet. this time i was interested. she just taught me the basics, but that's all i needed, and now, well the rest is history. thanks grandma for the lessons, i love you.
