Now that Laduree opened a store in NYC, holidays are even more special!
Pictured is their Halloween box with raspberry, pistachio, and vanilla macarons. 

My current project: a shawl to go with my Victorian themed Halloween costume.


Yesterday was one of those perfect autumn days so I went to the Cloisters museum
with my friend, Jessica. The museum is in a medieval castle that was created using
parts of castles from Europe. It's amazing!


The museum also has it's own medieval garden.




Last Sunday I went to the Sheep and Wool festival in Rhinebeck, New York.
I don't think I've ever seen so much yarn in my life!

With so many options, choosing yarn to buy was difficult.
In the end I went with these two gorgeous colors.

Pumpkins from the festival. Those are sheep on the center one!

It's been a while but I'm back and ready to post my crafting adventures! I guess I just needed the cool autumn weather to get my creative mojo back in gear. I'm still tweaking my new layout here and there but I thought I would post a hello. :) Above are some skulls I painted which were inspired by the Mexican holiday, Dia de los Muertos, (Day of the Dead).
