The Art of Stealth

joylimos — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 11:45:18 +0000

Time to bid farewell to my cute little crochet ninja! Sales make me happy, especially international ones. This little guy is going to New Zealand! I had a sale before that went to France (BONJOUR!) and I literally stared at my computer screen with this gigantic smile on my face that made my face ache after. The only factor that scares me when it comes to shipping international is the shipping cost. Cross that out.. shippping & handling costs drive me crazy, whether I’m the buyer or the seller! I try my best to make sure my handmade crafts are protected when it comes to shipping them out and that I don’t charge my customers ridiculous sum amount of money because as a buyer myself, I dislike it when sellers do this. Emphasize on the word ridiculous, as in paying over 5 bucks to ship a pair of earrings. Not unless they’re so fragile that they need extra care when it comes to handling them and shipping them, I don’t understand overpriced shipping charges. Anyways, here’s the little fella getting ready to be shipped =)

I was also included in an Etsy Treasury! Please check out the Beautiful Blues treasury if you have the time. Thank you!

I’ve noticed that the Owl theme has been growing and you can pretty much see them everywhere but for you Owl Lovers out there, I suggest visiting hoooooooot‘s shop at etsy. I don’t normally do this, this whole advertising thing but I LOOVEEEE her bags! I think it’s one of the cutest handmade bags I’ve ever seen!

birthday bird!

This idea has been roaming around my brain for quite a while now and I don’t know why I was never truly satisfied with it. I added a ribbon.. a birthday hat.. even a present full of origami stars but I still feel like something is missing. I love how it turned out nonetheless =D

2 more weeks and back to school for me again.

What’s shiny, light blue, and super duper cuttee? My newest etsy listing, blue bird keychain!!!

I’ve been saving that yarn and I’m glad I did The wings and beak are made out of cherry blossom pink embroidery thread. Yuupp, I crocheted them out of embroidery thread. I have three more amigurumis im working on to add to my etsy shop & I also have custom orders that I’ve been lagging on lol! Sorry for the lag!!

panda bear

Another custom order for a friend.. panda!! He’s only 6 inches tall so he would be perfect to put in the back of the car. Kinda don’t want to part with him anymore cause he’s just too cute! & my nieces also like him.

I’m willing to do another for an order but smaller!

I’ve been crocheting a lot of amigurumis lately without patterns and I’m loving it Opening up an etsy store just gave me motivation for making more without them. I’ve been lagging, I’m sorry! It’s just really hot and working with yarn in this weather is terrible! So what have I been doing besides crocheting? Well, I hemmed someone’s pants for them for the very first time and I think it went well This is my second try at hemming jeans and it is fairly easy to do! If anyone is interested, you can find a tutorial here but it was my sister in law who taught it to me and her sister in law who taught it to her and showed me how to do that stitch (invisible stitch?) inside the jeans so it will stay put.

it’s soo much better in person
