Happy New Years Eve and 31 Day Challenge!!

Hello everyone!

Wow I can't believe that 2012 is right around the corner! This past year was trying at times and the best thing was that I always had Jesus to turn to for help. I hope that you've all made so many cherished memories with your families and friends over the holidays!

There will be alot of changes in the coming year for me, starting with a 31 Day Challenge throughout the month of January. What I'll be doing is making a video each day about anything from crafting to an outing with my hubby. I've never done anything like this before and I'm gonna do all I can to complete it! I've seen many videos regarding a 31 Day Challenge and I thought, I wonder if I could do it? Wish me luck!!

Have a wonderful New Year and blessings to you all in 2012!!

I've found that crocheting is not only fun, but relaxing!! I hope you've enjoyed this and have a blessed beautiful day!!

My First Crocheted Purse!!

Hello everyone!!

I hope you all are having a beautiful day, night or afternoon wherever you are!! I've been challenging myself with several things lately and I'd like to share with you the most recent project!

I've only been crocheting for almost a month and I'm pretty happy with what I've learned so far! I saw a great tutorial on YouTube by virigniaomalley. It's a total of 5 videos and it's easy! The only problem I had was the button, let me tell you it looked like a hot mess!lol I can't wait to make more! Infact, I've been asked by several people to make them one too!! Woo Hoo!!!

Hope you've enjoyed it and thanks for stopping by!! Have a blessed day!!
