Christmas Stockings from Old Sweaters

 Here is my newest video on YouTube....

I think I really need to add music to these. :-)

I will have to put my son back to work, he can edit these faster than I can.





here are some pics of the stockings after I was done.  

I still have one more to make....or two  :-)


that fur is the softest stuff...I love the look of it.

The white stocking looks like it belongs to Bigfoot....lol  
might have to go back in there and trim his toenails... hee hee

Re-Covered Mouse Pads

 Here is a video for Recovering an old mouse pad...   

New Projects Coming

Sorry for the delay in new content.  I had to get a full time job due to life changing events and that leaves little time for making new posts or projects.....but....I have one in the "can" as they use to say....  hee hee... and that doesn't mean the toilet....lol

I'm having a little trouble remembering my YouTube password.   I have so many different passwords in my head and then websites make you change them periodically....so I'm at a loss for what that one is at the moment.   Then, I had the video edited and it disappeared....so I may have to start over again. We will see what happens.

I have also lost all my "camera people" due to "Mine Craft"  They are either all playing that (mining diamonds and other things to make square pigs and cows..lol) or they are trying to become YouTube sensations and so they have little time to become Mom's camera person.  So I am back to trying to video tape it myself, which isn't always as easy as it may sound.

And speaking of Mine Craft....does any Adult besides "Captain Sparkles" understand that game...I watch them play it and build these elaborate "worlds" with houses and water falls and hidden rooms....all with a pick ax in hand and I just don't quite get the fascination with it.  I watch them put all these memorized codes in to move here and there and see their frustration as they allow other people to come into "their world" only to be betrayed and have the world totally destroyed.  I don't get the fascination with it.  If somebody I invited here to visit, killed all MY sheep (mind you, I don't have any) I wouldn't invite them back and I think I would stop allowing visitor to come near  my sheep and other livestock and I definitely wouldn't invite them into my home.

Does anyone else have children who are "Mining" and aspiring to be wealthy like "Captain Sparkles"?

Just wondering.

So, on that note, I go back to crafting and say....soon, my friends.  I will have some wonderful creation for you, soon...  :-) 

Until then, you can check out my YouTube channel    my channel My Channel and watch some older videos.  

Also, I want to say thank you to all my readers.  I may not have many subscribers on my blog, but I do have many who follow me on YouTube and I just wanted to say thank you for reading my blog and watching my videos.
