My Creative Space Thursday

Another week of creative crazyness at my house, with all my yarn being posted into the etha, I am spending my time relaxing, crafting and sending out some much needed snail mail. I used to send a handful of letters a week, but as I've become a mum the handful has turned into one every few months if Im lucky! So Im making time for the little things in life like letters and handmade cards...

below are my little thankyou cards to a few of my customers that have supported me every step of the way in my little dyeing business. All handmade even down to the little envelopes that Im working on at the moment.
I've had so much fun making these bite sized green cards with crazy mismatching envelopes, but its the thought that counds, I hope they make my girls smile.
Im also working on my gifts for no reason list, to send close friends little things in the mail just for no reason other than pure and simple thankyou. Im just putting together a little owl notebook for a woman I have not met, but has made an impact of my life.

Life is about giving and creating for no reason other than pure bliss.

Creative Space! a little of this alittle of that

Thursday again, blink and it shall be next week! my little nook is a hype of activity! with yarn club in full swing, it seems that all my hands are doing is dyeing! (they are stained red with green fingernails, nniiicee combo hey lol)  so my space is cluttered with dye pots, half full, half empty not even opened yet, and a whole lot of undyed yarn waiting to be thrown into the cauldron of colour!
On the knitting front, Im doing some mindless stuff, but still cute, making little facewashers to sell at the markets, from soft, lovely cotton. The make great little gifts for friends and baby shower presents! Im making several for that very reason!
On the writing front, I have a new penpal, and she is just delightful. What more could a knitter want than a knitting penpal! with sheepy paper and all! Im working on her letter as we speak, with collages and cuteness, I think the art of letter writing needs some love! 
and just for her...my wheel...told you I was a spinner hehe
thats me for another thursday! if you want to check out more of the creative ladies spaces check out Kootoyoo's blog! 
Tea and Yarn lovelies
