Inspired!

so I've been looking at this page cause I found a pattern from there a couple months ago that really helped me out and it  has inspired me to do a few more projects and tackle some things that seemed impossible

Jumping in!

 So catching up on all the blogs I read I got inspired, and well the creativity started flowing and it just won't stop.
In the past 2 days I have cleaned the house, made 3 skirts (one for Izzy 2 for etsy), made 7 sets of bobby pin barrettes and a few stragglers as well as group together some of my photography prints. I am planning to stock my etsy shop and hopefully make a little extra cash to fund my etsy addiction as well as my daughters need for some new (to her) clothes. So go check it out @  JLynnFinch

Nutcracker

                                                        WE SURVIVED!
Ok so it wasn't that bad and we definitely had fun! I took way too many pictures and am now editing and going through them all adding them to facebook and shutterfly to share with others so I will add the links here to eliminate another upload. for now here are a few sneak peaks

Tea with the Sugar Plum Fairy

Well as most of you know #1 and #2 are in ballet and its Nutcracker season #1 is a gingerbread chef as well as a party boy he's super excited and we are too since he is scollarshipped so if he really enjoys this it could be a career. #2 is an angel and having fun. Well to help raise money for the Ballet company I painted some dead point shoes for them to add to their silent auction as well as place a couple in shadow boxes (sorry no pictures) with a poem by my niece. we did the theme the slipper that saved the Nutcracker Prince lol since Clara throws her slipper at the Rat King and distracts him long enough to save the Prince.


So tell me What do you think should I do several of these throughout the year to get ahead for next year?
Should I do several different ballet themes and try and sell them on ETSY?
Or does anyone have any other ideas to do with dead point shoes.
