Valentine's Projects

This weekend Rachael and I are going to make some stuff for Valentines day to sell on Rachael's ETSY store. For those of you who don't know who Rachael is, she's my sister who adopted a little girl from Russia last year. While she was in Russia, she was so touched by the other orphans who still didn't have parents that she wanted to start a christmas fund to send gifts. So a portion of the proceeds on her ETSY store go for that. This year, we are getting an early start. I just got into pottery this year, so my supply of molds is sorta limited to a degree. But I found a really nice lady in Kalamazoo who had a bunch of bisque ware, so this is what I picked up... The cups are for me Rach, but the cute plate is for you. Rachael doesn't have anything to put in her store at the moment, so its not open, but as soon as it is, I'll add a link so that anyone who's interested can see the final products.

Count me in, I would like to see the ITSY store.

Glad to see your keeping up with your blog. We need to get Dore' on the ball with hers.

You should start your own ETSY store.
Francie wants me to come to your house with her this weekend. So maybe I'll see you then.

I'm sure they will be adorable like all of your other projects.

I'm knitting an American Girl outfit for Rachel's ETSY store.

Ooh, I like my plate. Can't wait!

You're getting better every day at blogging. Your writing reminds me of a John Steinbeck or Mark Twain. Or the old lady that lives down the street from me who makes out her grocery list weekly. HA! Just kidding. Keep up the good work.

Okay, I see now it is an ETSY store....I thought ITSY store was kind of cute too.
With all of the tiling experience you have, are you sure you wouldn't like to fly out here and help. We would have lots of fun!!!

I just noticed Ellie's picture with the caption... black sheep of the family! So funny!
Poor thing, maybe she should come visit auntie fray-fray!
