Come crochet a cupcake with me this Friday, Dec 10 at Twisted in Portland!
I will also be signing books for a few hours at Crafty Wonderland on Saturday and Sunday.

Also I will have my very last audio/visual extravaganza on Sunday at Powell’s City of Books at 4pm. Hope to see you!!! Check out tour info here. (But note that the Powell’s event is really at 4pm, not 3pm!)

Don’t forget that I will be vending at the amazing Academy of Sciences in the rainforest area!! I am bringing supplies and you can design and make your own flower headband! I’ve been crocheting flowers all day and all night, so please come out and make it all worth it :). Buy tix now!

So a few months ago, I was asked to create a “get to know the artist” vlog for a certain site I shall not name. They never ended up posting it, and I felt like the whole situation was really weird and involved Yummy You product as well. Oh well. Sometimes you try and nothing comes of it. I keep trying anyway!

BuuuuuuUUuuuuut…it did result in this blooper reel! I kept trying to do my whole 90 second spiel in ONE seamless and awesome take, which led to a lot of frustration!!! The final cut I submitted was not all one take, and it was not this same background or hair or day.

Enjoy!

Elsie is running a “12 days of handmade” tutorial marathon on her blog! Check out our blingeee crochet hook project here!

It posted today but I had been out and about in Seattle and flying home tonight :).

We had a super great time (will try to get some video and photos up tomorrow), but I am so happy to be home for a few days!

I have to scramble to prep my interactive booth for the fun Indie Mart event this Thursday night 6pm-10pm at the Academy of Sciences. I’ll be doing “design your own flower headbands” by the butterfly exhibit! Should be super duper funz!!

And then Friday, we are off to Portland for more book tour stuffs!!!! Friday: cupcake class at Twisted. Saturday & Sunday: book signing at Crafty Wonderland. Sunday: audio/visual presentation and book signing at Powell’s. More tour info here! Portland is my last stop of this tour, so please come and say hi. It’s your last chance! 😉
