"MAY FOR ME" is coming up and I am trying to get all of my patterns in place and pre-doing projects so that they go smooth for the whole month. I figured Barbie Clothes would be something easy to do and well it just isn't. Not for a beginner like me that is.
I haven't gotten my bins yet and so I am trying to fill my time with getting custom orders done and fitting in fun time where I can learn these new things. I will admit today was a chore for me. Mentally I kept telling myself - "Nope can't do it" & "Nope I suck"
So here is what I suck at....
Well not a total bust but certainly in need for some major practicing. These will go up for sale tonight at http://www.etsy.com/shop/mrscraftyrving and maybe someone in the etsy world will think I am a genius with the crocheting hook - one can only hope...
I have a feeling in May I will be pumping out some cool new things - all toy themes... I've always wanted to learn how to make handmade crochet/knitted toys. The time it takes to make them and the love it takes for someone to buy them all equals true treasures....

QUESTION OF THE DAY:
How old where you when you got your first Barbie or Ken doll?
Would love to hear (I was 10 - I know older but I just wasn't into dolls - kind of am now)...

I was about 9, but it was a Midge doll. And who remembers Skipper's cousin Scooter?
ReplyDeleteI was young, maybe younger then 3, when I got my first barbie. I had a huge under-bed tub full by the time I was 10! :) I loved barbies & I'm sad I don't have a little girl to play with them again. lol
ReplyDeleteYou would be completely saddened at the collection my brother had when he died. I had to sell them to cover funeral/travel costs. He collected toys...and I had to ship them from San Francisco back home to me. I got two UPS trucks--full of toys-- that came to my door one day.
ReplyDeleteIt was so sad to sell them but the entire time my brother was sick it cost thousands of dollars that I didn't have.
The best Barbie sold for $400 on ebay. sigh.
What a fun blog, thanks for including me in your feature section. I was actually very young when I got my first Barbie and had many along the years, I played with them daily and for probably more years then I should have. My daughter loved and collected them too, now my two grandaughter are enjoying them!!! Have a fun day!!!
