Busy times

I've been crazy busy at work..AKA the "real"job...lately, and at home with working on little projects and catching up on my new favorite TV show, Downton Abby. I think I watched all three season in less then three weeks!! I was busy knitting ruffle scarves while watching the show, but pictures of that project will have to wait, since I want to add things to them and they are a surprise for a few friends.

Another thing I have been working on is products for my newest company, Sweet Illusions. It's creative, unique packaging for sweets and other treats!! I have a few ideas done and ready to sell and I have others that I have rejected or is going to be changed and some I like but I need to see if I can cut down on assembly time or it won't be a feasible product. I'm not going to tempt you with what didn't work or with the works in progress.

So besides the chocolate bar wrappers I did for Christmas I now have a shamrock for St. Patrick's Day, a basket for Easter, a purse and a butterfly. I want to be able to sell my items for weddings, bridal and baby showers, parties, luncheons and, of course, holidays.
