16 Hours

It has been a very eventful day .. it started with me waking up at 11pm to get ready to go to work and work for 16 hrs straight. I was very productive since the first 8 hr shift was quiet. I made 7 ornament in the first 8 hrs ... so that means that I did very little talking ... those that know me will know how hard that is for me to do. LOL In the next 4 hrs I did 3 more ornaments and went to the PO and shipped out 3 quilted ornaments to Ms Morrison in MN. She requested that I make the ornaments out of her late sons shirt. What a way to always have your loved ones close to you. The day has been good. I woke to find out that WVU beat Marshall which is great !! My son Ben is doing a charity auction for one of the local churches in Dunmore, WV. I am so proud of my children!! Crystal just called wanting the link to a birthday cake I made last week. I have to say myself it turned out pretty darn good. And hubby Daron is home babysitting the granddaughter Miss Cadence ... but if I know Cadence she has papaw doing everything she wants ... LOL. Well it's time to start crocheting !! Have a great day and weekend my friends.

Fall

The past few weeks have been busy. Between working some overtime at my job I have been crafting like crazy. I have sold several quilted ornaments and have submitted some to a magazine in Kentucky for review. Keep your fingers crossed that this will all work out for me. I have been doing alot of crocheting. Fall is in the air and it's sports season so why not get a crochet neck scarf in your team colors to keep you warm and show your team support. Check out all my newly posted items at http://www.etsy.com/shop/KountryKreations2008 . Well now I am off to work on a new ornament so stay tuned to see how it turns out !!!

I have gotten several orders and sold several in the past couple weeks. A great friend has taken them to the WV State Fair with her to sell. Thanks Robin you are the greatest!! I have been working with the WV Living Market Place at Snowshoe, WV on selling them and Cass Scenic Railroad. I have some of the most amazing friends they have been so great threw all my family has went threw. I am going to post a couple of the newest ornaments here and the link to my etsy site so you can see them there and order if interested. http://www.etsy.com/shop/KountryKreations2008 or if you have facebook check them out there http://www.facebook.com/pages/Cass-WV/Kountry-Kreations  Please let me know what your thoughts are.

Just Saying ...

The granddaughter turn the big 2 in June and now for the terrible 2's. I have applied to have my crafts juried at Tamarack so will keep you all posted on how that goes. I am working with The WV Living Market Place and Cass Railroad with putting my crafts there. So things are busy at my house and now comes the gardening and canning. Hope to be posting again soon.

CANCER AWARENESS ORNAMENT

Each of us know someone or has a loved one that has had cancer. What better way to show your support than with a ornament. $2.50 from each of these ornaments sold will go to assist a local cancer patient. Ornaments are not just for Christmas. Show your love today and everyday!

Each festive ornament is topped with coordinating ribbon bows. Great for hanging on your tree, in a bowl as a center piece or share one with a friend. Make a memory with this one of a kind handmade Quilted Ornament.

Makes a beautiful decoration throughout the winter and holiday season. Can also be given as a thank you gift when visiting friends or family for the holidays. What a wonderful and surprising way to give memories to a family member or friend. A unique gift for students to give to their teachers.

Each ornament is uniquely handmade, so no two ornaments will ever be exactly alike.

Ornaments are approximately 3-inches in diameter.

Please feel free to contact me at any time and thank you so much for taking the time to look at my ornaments.

Always from my smoke free pet free environment.
