My 2017 Halloween Felt Ornament Set Is Now Avalaible!

 For the 2017 Halloween Season, I designed a set of 3 ornaments that are slightly different than last years' patterns but still coordinate with the 1st set. This set will be sold in a bundle of the 3 together.

The First Felt Halloween Ornament Is A Black Cat.

 I designed a scary Witch's Black Cat. Most of my ornament designs are usually faces, so it was a treat to do a whole body this time. We've had 3 black cats over the years so I consider this one a friendly cat.

The Second Felt Halloween Ornament Is A Felt Ghost.

 

This ghost is probably the easiest of all the Halloween ornaments to make. You can sew it like I did or just glue it together with felt glue.

The Third Felt Halloween Ornament Is A Witch's Hat.

 

I just love this witch's hat! Super easy to make and easy to add details too. Isn't the pumpkin so cute on the hat brim?

Here's All My Felt Halloween Ornaments Together.

I am so tickled at how cute all my Halloween Ornaments look all together! I already have new ideas for next year!

Here's a link to my etsy shop Halloween Bundle Set. And I'll make a sidebar link too.

I hope you enjoy all my Halloween Patterns and will like my Christmas ones as well.

Ornaments are Coming!

I finished my 2015 Christmas Collection of ornaments. There are 5 designs total with a possible 6th if I get enough interest.

 Beginning designs.

 Male Deer, Female Deer, Santa, Snowman and Male Elf.

I took a poll on social media if I should make an Elf or Ginger Cookie. The Elf won, but I did make 1 Ginger Cookie that I'll giveaway on Small Business Saturday, 11/28/15 cause he's so darn cute.

I am taking another poll to see if I should make some Girl Elves with pink hats. What do you guys think? Yes or No?

 These are soooo cute in person! I've already sold several and I haven't listed them in my shop yet. I hope you enjoyed seeing them!

Monday's Worktable.

I have finished my commissioned soft sculpture piece! My client hasn't seen it yet so I can't show it until she does. But here is a sneak peek I put up last week.

 I can show wips of my 2015 Christmas Collection which I'm pretty excited about.

 Beginning sketches, turn into tighter sketches which turn into paper patterns.

 A young deer is my first design, I think I'll put a bow on it and make it a girl.

 I have a deer with little antlers and a red nose too. I'm currently working on a snowman and a Santa, what else should I make?

I See The Light AT The End Of The Tunnel!

I'm almost done with my website, just a few more tweaks and I'll be ready to launch! Between this and setting up marketing and promos and my newsletter, I really thought my head might explode. Of course I create a lot of the stress and drama myself and that never makes anything better, but once I calm down I'm a workhorse and things get done.

I don't have any new art to show but I'm currently working on my October freebie for my newsletter subscribers. If you are crafty and want to try this sign up for my newsletter. You'll also be the first to know about my website launch date, coupon codes just for subscribers, freebie patterns and more! http://eepurl.com/bwPx-D

These Reindeer Plush Buddies will be available later today.

Still sewing penguin and owl ornaments. I have about 30 of 150 penguins done. I'll only have maybe 10 to 12 owls this year. They will all start to appear in my shop this weekend and once they are gone that's all.

Saturday WIPs

I'm busy getting ready for the holiday. Lots of ideas not enough time so I decided to work on the smaller, quicker items first.

Box O Penguin Ornaments

These little guys were very popular last year, so much so that I ran out quickly. Making a big box this year.

Owl ornaments that I never had time to make last year. Only doing a few in different colors this year just because I love owls so much.

I also have to make something for 2 swaps and a challenge too! How do I get myself into these things?!

New Ornaments In The Shop and Lots Of Custom Orders.

I had a little pattern cut out, a mini version of my plush penguins but wasn't sure I was going to do finish them. Well I'm glad I did cause they seem to be quite popular little things! I even have some custom order penguins too.

Working on lots of Custom Plush Tardis Orders that are shipping all over the world and here in the US. Isn't the pink one awesome! A special order for a lovely girl in the UK.

As always I have owls. Here's the first of many. Just need to sew up the rest of them!

Super happy things are selling. Glad I stuck it out and didn't close my etsy shop.

No Tuesday Treasures Today.

Super busy lately so decided not to do Tuesday Treasures this week. I'm working hard at getting new things done for the shop. I couldn't decide if I wanted to put the Halloween ornaments up for sale or not but finally decided to try them. I originally wanted to have 6 but after 4 frustrating tries at doing a witch I gave up and there will only be 5 ornaments. They can be purchased as a set or as singles.

Candy Corn, Pumpkin, Bat, Frank and Black Cat

I'll have some new sweet 5" x 7" digital prints perfect for framing coming into the shop. Cupcakes, ballerinas, and I'll also try the mermaids again plus some other fun paper products.

I'm still working on the Halloween dolls and you can get a sneak peek at those tomorrow on Worktable Wednesday. I do intend to put them up for sale in my shop as soon as I have the whole set completed. They are OOAK and if I make any others they will be different.

Check out this great Penguin Treasury my Plush Penguins are in! So cute! Just gives me happy feet looking at it! If you want to see them all just click on the pic to get to the treasury.

2 More Halloween Ornament Ideas

Well I played around last night and came up with 2 new designs. I'm set on the Frank and candy corn ones but need a 3rd one. I did a black cat and a pumpkin. I think I'm leaning toward the pumpkin, it's cuter. But I love the contrast the cat brings to the group.

What you you guys think?
