Geekcrafts.com Feature!

Do you know what happens when you don't log into your blog for some time?

I honestly thought I would log back in and see much of the same, a few hits here, a few there....

But I was wrong.

Through the power of my stats page, I found out that my Bofur Hat Pattern had been featured on GeekCrafts.com!

I was actually featured back in January, and I really hate I didn't notice it until recently. However, that did not make me any less excited!

Here's the link to my feature, but please peruse the other articles on the site as well. I've seen some really unique things so far!:)

To be honest, I can't remember what size I saved it as, but I'm thinking it's in the neighborhood of 2.5x3? (Or maybe 2x3.5? I don't k...

I donated a lot of items then, but over the past few months decided to do another round of de-cluttering. However, this time, I chose to try to sell some of my "stuff". In today's economy every little bit helps! My parents and I held a joint yard sale at their home, and we ended up doing fairly well.

However, choosing to sell them could pay off. It’s always worth going through your chi...

Bofur Inspired Hat Pattern

(Check out this handy dandy Pinterest ready graphic I made!) In The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, one of the dwarves (Bofur) wore this really, really awesome hat.
