Reconnecting part 2


In October, we worked really, really hard to be ready for our 1st craft show.  Making glasses, tea lights, sanding, wrapping and boxing more glassware than you can imagine.  Much of our October was spent working on things like this:


This is a champagne bottle glass 1/2 done.  Next stop: hand-sanding!

Meanwhile, we couldn't let the month get past us without at least some Halloween fun.  T likes to dress up Fenway in his many, many outfits.  His most recent addition is his Batdog costume, which she bought just for him.  This was the culmination to the Batdog ensemble of a handmade collar with a handmade Batman symbol she made many months ago - you guessed it, just for him.  He wears this on a fairly regular basis.  You never know who's going to show up around here...


T calls this "Casual Sunday" - no cape and suit required


Then there are business formal days - crime never takes a vacation!

Part 3 tomorrow...

Handmade and Made to Order Signs - new in the Etsy shop!

I tried a new craft, sign-making.  It's pretty fun, really!  I'd like to make some new dog and cat signs soon, but I started with my Irish roots first and a movie quote from Doc Holliday in Tombstone that always makes me smile.  Let me know what you think, or if you have any suggestions you'd like to see.  I can definitely make a sign to order.  Maybe with your blog' name or your favorite pooch's pet name?
