The Space to Create

You may remember a few days ago I shared an open letter to the Great Pumpkin. I asked for many things in that letter, but the final item on my list was the space to create. Before I go any further, I know many of you are skeptical of the Great Pumpkin. I understand, but hear me out. The past two days have been filled with so many opportunities to create. I have been to six local fabric shops, finished two Christmas presents, sewed through my finger giving me the space to creatively try to bandage it and worked on a tote with vingage hedgehog fabric. I know this may just seem like luck or procrastination, but I am not done believing. The real test will come the evening of November 6th.


I also had the opportunity to restock my earrings and pins. There was some talk about selling them on Etsy but I truly do not think I have the time and energy to keep an Etsy store alive. It takes money, patience and dedication. I have one of those things, but it needs to be shared between work and school. I do have seventy-five pairs of earrings and pins that are still looking for a new home. I can easily accept payment via Pay-Pal, which has an incredibly user friendly iPhone app.

If you are interested please let me know. I can also look through my stash if you are looking for a certain color or print. Both earrings and pins come on a small gift tag with purple or pink stamped bunting and a small fabric tail. I have small craft paper bags which can easily pass as gift wrapping.

  1. omg these are awesome! I want a pair! They are adorable, cute packaging as well.


    I've thought about opening an etsy shop too, for a couple things I've made that people say I should sell. Maybe if we could get a couple of creative people together, we could open one collaboratively?
