can we all go out for a drink?

Thank you, every single person out there, for the big-hearted congrats about the new column. It's so gratifying to hear from people I've never even had a conversation with, who believe in me anyway. It really, really means a lot.

And I am as excited as you that newspapers are giving real inches to craft. Hooray!

Along those lines, my new DIY project is up over at Heart Handmade. This one is as quick as it is satisfying. I realized last week that I had turned our dining room table into a crafting Superfund site. But before I tidied up, I created yet another project. Oops. All the details are over on Marichelle’s ever-inspiring site.

shipshape project

To see what became of this nautical still life, head right over to Heart Handmade and check out my latest project.

And secondly, thank you all for the tips on the cold-oil infusion method. My nose and husband and I all thank you heartily. I'll forage some herbs again soon and report on the progress, but I'm already looking forward to the little pots of goodness doing their thing on the windowsill.

when the going gets tough, the tough get tulle

If you’re looking for a quick craft distraction, head over to Heart Handmade where I posted instructions for this necklace. It just so happens to be perfect feminine recession wear: the netting literally costs 99 cents for a yard, which will make dozens of necklaces. And the variations are endless. Take that, economy!
