Hunger pains...

I think one of the hardest things is to try and think what might sell in the months of January-February.  February is easy with Valentines Day and Spring on it's way...but January is tough.  So...in the midst of the sub-zero temps that we have been experiencing...I have been "grazing" way more than I ought to....and some ideas I had were food! ha!  Don't know if these will sell but they should put a smile on someone's face!  Enjoy....

Strawberries, Cinnabuns and Caramel Rolls!!!  They look good enough to eat and all made out of cloth~!

Sleepless nights...

Thought I would post a few pics of the latest that went into Up North!  Check out Carol and Caroline...the Caroling nuns!  Along with them is Ms. Candy Kane... selling candy canes to get through her holidays!  The gingerboys are a little less to be desired...but so ugly that I put them in, anyways!  ha!  I don't like how they turned out but they are definitely prim!  Made up some pins for the Secret Santa lovers and teacher gifts and Love the Mousie and his letter to Santa!  He found some nasty, dirty paper to write down his wynter wishes....all he wants for Christmas is some cheese for his brothers and sisters!  This is one of Becky Erickson's awesome designs!

May I Have Your Order Please!?

Got the phone call today that my 'goods' are selling fast!  Those cute snoman heads are rolling out the door at Up North....  I'm dying to get busy with some fun new ideas I have...but I've been busy with orders for people for Christmas!  This is a good thing but I'm not much into repetition and it's killing me to be disciplined!  ha!  Thought I would capture a shot of two orders I just finished this evening!!  Stay tuned for more fun goodies I will be running to Deer River on Tuesday!

More goods for the Market!

Stopped in to the shop this weekend, again and dropped off a few more little fellas!  Here's a few photos of them as I said 'good bye'!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Stopped over to Deer River yesterday at Up North General Store and brought in some goods!  I snapped a few pictures of Rinda's shop to share with you all... she has it looking so great and cozy!!  I'll be dropping off more items, early Friday morning for BLACK Friday!  (whoever thought of that term?!)  Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving!  The kids and I are having a blast being lazy this morning....getting ready for the big 'pig out'!

Late night snack

 I have spent the entire day stitching and snuggling with the kiddos!  Kody and I had a date night on Friday and spent the weekend enjoying the kids!  Headed over to Duluth on Saturday to my fav shoppe..now Homestead Gatherings with good bud, Connie.  We hit the Rocking Horse in Superior, a thrift shop and Michaels!  Tonight...after everyone is tucked in their bed...the munchies have attacked.... this once, fine and full jar of Orange Jalapeno jelly was designed for crackers and cream cheese...never made it to see a cracker...but was fully consumed by a single spoon...until it was empty.  Now the guilt has set in.  Dawn's wonderful jellies can now be found at Rinda's shoppe in Deer River, too!!!  Up North General Store!

A Chip off the Block

I have been going around and snapping pictures of the kid's artwork from the past season, before I take them down for their scrapbooks...and thought I had to show case the cute little primitive pumpkin head man my sweet Keira (who is 4)...had made in preschool!  This is so precious and I needed a picture before the little gourd head rots on me!  Thought you all would enjoy it too!
