Just a few things I've been working on: hair bows,

Valentine's decorations and a turban headband.

It was my birthday a few weeks ago so I went to Tea & Sympathy for the first time. Loved it!

Isn't that teapot gorgeous?

Their decor was wonderful. And this is my new bag for spring <3

I crocheted a kind of autumn bunting for my room.
It was actually pretty easy to do!

I was a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding. The flowers we had were gorgeous!
Apple pie by yours truly. I love the lattice effect, I definitely want to make more :)

What I've been up to lately...
Crocheting!
I'm on my third cowl! The gray one is actually for my sister as a birthday gift.
Cowls are so easy to make and fast as well.
Halloween treats!

My accessories for my Halloween costume, a Victorian lady.
 
Me!

The Merchant House museum, a stop on our ghost tour my friend and I took on Halloween.
Day of The Dead skulls.

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).

rain, rain, rain and crochet







As the title would suggest, all it has been doing of late is rain. Here's a couple of things I've been working on and the last of the flowers that bloomed.
