Felt So Lucky!!

by Melissa on November 22, 2009

1 sick child, 2 brand new jobs, 3 weeks of blog silence…..

Hmm…not the Holiday list I was hoping to make this year!

But my baby is on the mend (and, NO, Thank God, it was NOT H1N1!!!), I’m getting a better handle on juggling my new job responsibilities with the rest of my life tasks and my energy is freeing up to felt and blog!

Meanwhile, I had a happy little windfall!

Lovely Linda at my favorite daily felting blog, Craft Gossip, sponsored a contest offering a really sweet and beautifully packaged Soap Felting Kit from Leah at Spiderfelt, and (drumroll, please!) I won!

I have to say that I LOVE winning things, especialy fabulous, useful things, like this little kit!

I can’t wait to actually use it! I think I might offer it as a fun Thanksgiving project with my tweenage neice and nephew for an after-all-the-turkey-what-do-we-do-now distraction. Or save it to do with some other fun kid friend. I think even my son would enjoy the playing in the water part, so a good time can be had by all!

Actually, just so you know, this cute little kit wasn’t even my favorite thing in Leah’s Spiderfelt Etsy shop. Go check out her sumptuous nuno-felting for some sensory candy.

This is the kind of felting I aspire to make!

Well, back to Holiday prep!

I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving!

I know I have a lot to be thankful for this year, not the least of which is this new blog! So, see you again soon!
