New Item - Perfect Stocking Stuffer

I love those rare days when I create a new item for the store.

Just in time for the holidays, I'm offering these awesome expandable mug cozies. They are a perfect stocking stuffer or small gift for that special someone on your list.

I love custom orders and can do just about any color you can imagine.

Don't drink coffee? How about hot cocoa, hot cider, tea, or a bunch of other yummy warm drinks!

These are under $10 and free international shipping! Happy Holidays!

Last Deal for This Weekend

I hope you've all enjoyed the holiday!

To top it off, I'll be offering:

* A FREE cocoon with any additional purchase.

You can choose from oatmeal, raspberry, baby's got the blues, or sweet pea.

Code : COCOON

Happy Holidays!

Ode to Alice Cullen Loom -a- Long

I love contests! And when I saw one of my favorite knitters, Vickie Howell Twitter about her Loom -A -Long contest, I knew I had to enter!

Here are my supplies: Provo Craft Flower Loom & Bernat Soft Chunky Yarn

It is a super easy pattern, and I was able to finish the set in less than an hour.

And here are my end results: a pair of super cute arm warmers!

I'm going to make another with a fiber that is even chunkier.

Living here in Utah, arm warmers are not accessories they are necessary.

Thanks Vickie!

I'll keep my fingers crossed I win...

Cost of Creativity

Lots of orders + little time = super unattractive fingers

Before I met my husband, I was on a first date with a guy(who actually introduced me to my future husband later that night..but that's for another blog post) And he was shocked, dismayed and I think down right disgusted that I didn't have a fresh manicure. Ya'll, if you work with your hands you are not going to be doing Palmolive commercials anytime soon.

I've accepted that I'll never have beautiful hands. It's hilarious when we spend time with someone with painted fingers or toes, Isabelle goes nuts over it. It truly is something out of the ordinary for her to see.

That's okay.. Keep those holiday orders coming, I have a haircut next week that will rock my husband's socks!

Warm me up, Buttercup!

In 2010 I will be condensing all my businesses onto the All Things Belle Etsy store.

Everything from my cupcake wrappers originally on Busy Izzy Bakery

to my scented wall vinyl cling I started on Scented Living.

And of course I'm going to be branching out in the knitted & crocheted realm.

For today, with any purchase I will be including a *free* crocheted coffee mug warmer!

Don't drink coffee? It's great for those mugs full of hot chocolate or cider.

Or now you have a perfect stocking stuffer!
