get a new jacket already

Hi gang! What are you up to today?
Me? I'm just making stuff, you know, the usual.

I just dropped off some pouches, felt birdies and owl key chains at Exhibit One Gallery. Now I'm starting to work on ornaments and other things to go into my shop.

Are you wondering, "does she always wear that yellow jacket?" answer is: yes, yes I do.

I'm officially unemployed! I've been working part time at a retail store for 2 years and I put in my 2 weeks two weeks ago! Now it's just me and stelabird. I graduate college in December! What am I doing after that? Stelabird! Hopefully it works out for me. Riley is also jobless! haha Look at us go. But he will start teaching guitar lessons next week. Stay tuned for the adventures of the jobless duo!

I leave you with a video of a song that I'm currently listening to on repeat, because it's fun and it makes me dance in my seat.

  3. I'm quite jealous of your joblessness and supporting yourself with your business!!! I hope that Stelabird take off and you are able to completely live off of it!! What did you go to school for? This December will be my 2 year anniversary of graduating! I remember the crazy mix of excitement are fear and joy and sadness on that day!!

  15. I love your yellow jacket. I never noticed that you wear it a lot.

    Congratulations on quitting your job. I would love to do that someday. I love your dedication to making things, I have such a short attention span, I cannot stick to one thing. How do you do that? For the most part you will work on a series of similar fun projects. I have craft add.
