Monday Rainbows And Treasuries!

 (Fashion Art Print by DigitalDraft)

     Hello, Hard Workers! :-] I say that because it's Monday, and I know you must be either hard at work now, or winding down from a hard Monday at work. And that's true whether you work inside or outside the home!!...Me?!....Yep! I've been hard at work today too, with minor stops for a cup of soup, a cup of hot chocolate, and an episode of 'Matlock'! ^_^

     What I've been hard at work on is my temporarily lost, but re-found again, rainbow baby blanket! :-] I started back on it after I finished my latest hat. I'll show it to you in a minute, but first...you know what's coming! ^_^ ...more Etsy treasuries!!...

     The above treasury included another one of my suit boutonnieres...

     ...and a few other cute items too. Like this wedding ring holder jute heart (below)...

    ...and this beautiful photograph! :-) ...

     I'm originally from Georgia, and had family that lived in Savannah, so this door (above) brought back some fond memories. :-] And made me wonder if the road in front of it was cobbled too! ^_^

     There were so many cute items in this treasury (below) ...

(Mixed Metals by Silvana Sagan)

     ...that I decide to just share my crochet hat...

     ...and this cute necklace...

 (Initial Letter G Disc Pendant by WindDancerStudios)

     ...and let you go over and check out the rest of the treasury on your own! :-) *Okay...truth. My fingers are sore!! LOL I'm trying to hurry this tap...tap...tapping along!! ^_^ *

     Before I leave though, let me show you some rainbow baby blankets!!! :-) ...

     The three baby blankets above are not mine though! :-] They're just here for inspiration. Inspiration, so that I keep going on 'my' rainbow baby blanket!! O_O I need the inspiration because...my fingers are sore!...and this blanket seems to be taking for......ever!!!!! O_O

     Now I remember why I put it down the last time!! ^_^ The good thing this time though, is that it's almost done. Only about eight more rows...or so...to go!! Another row of purple, and then six rows of white!...

      I'm calling it a rainbow sweater baby blanket because that's what it feels like...a warm sweater. :-]

     It's thick with color and yarn!...You can see in the photos how many colors are in it!!...but you can't see how much yarn I've already used on it. About $35.00 worth!! O_O Not to mention the hours of time!...How in the world will I ever price it to move?!!!...
 

     Considering how heavy this 'baby' is too, and that I don't charge for shipping to the United States, I foresee a nightmare of me trying to figure out how much to charge for it....*sigh*...Whatever!!!...First I have to finish crocheting it!! ^_^ So I'm off to try to do that right now! :-)
     Enjoy the rest of you Monday, Workers! :-) ... And as some inspiration for you...remember....the weekend is just around the corner!...and a block or two! Ha! Ha!

Butterfly-ish

I'm feeling butterfly-ish.
Wanna flutter...move real slow.
Wanna wander...mind and body.
Not be fast, and 'on the go'.

I'm feeling like I need
a quiet day to hang around.
Have everything wrapped up,
and just block out surrounding sound.

I'm feeling butterfly-ish.
Wanna lay in bed till noon.
Wanna have some time to morph.
Need a tree and a cocoon.

Tomorrow they'll be time
to change and modify.
To spread my wings, add color,
like a brand new butterfly.
