Hello I’m Steph!
I ❤️ to tell stories, sew, scrapbook, paint, woodwork, DIY, and collect junk...
Let’s craft a connection and be friends 👯‍♂️

They have all had their official portraits taken and were safely stowed in a safe place (or at least I think it was safe).
.
I have decided my two rascally pups will not be responsible for stopping Easter and spring gnomes from getting into your homes!
.
Etsy restock will be done by noon central time!
.
And dare I say, these are the cutest ones yet!
.
But I know I say that every time!

UPDATE: The crime scene is taped off and the criminals have been booked.
.
At approximately 9:45 am the call came in 🚨.
.
Two criminals remained at large after looting The Lucy Bird headquarters (aka basement).
.
Inside job.
.
Authorities have no reason to believe it could happen to you!
.
After questioning, it turns out the loveys that the gnomes are holding were mistaken for “squeaker toys”.
.
In what has been recorded as the “squeaker toy heist of 2021” multiple gnomes were damaged and carelessly strewn about.
.
The carnage was real.
.
Some may never use their legs or feet again 😔.
.
The perps?
.
They were proud and “showboated” the their loot around the house, tossing it into the air with reckless abandon.
.
It was this evidence that led authorities to the scene.
.
They will be thrown the book.
.
For further updates please check back. This is an ongoing investigation and details will be made public when available.

I know I’m ready for spring because I want to monkey around with bunnies and rainbows! 🌈
.
Have you ever wondered what I keep in these lockers and how I sort and store my quilting and crafting supplies?
.
Any interest in a blog post on it?

Once the temperatures hit “melting” I was so r

Once the temperatures hit “melting” I was so ready for spring!
.
This first batch would be perfect for Easter or could just be “neutral” for spring!
.
I’ve been getting some requests for gnomes that could be used year round (ie not so seasonal looking) and these guys are it!
.
Ps: the lovey I put on them is just attached with a pin, so could be easily swapped out and your gnome could hold something new.
.
These be hitting the shop soon!

I am struggling with the size of balls.
.
Pom poms.
.
I’m talking about pom pom balls.
.
Trying out a new pom pom maker where supposedly you can make 4 at a time, but so far I have just wasted yarn in quad-like speed.
.
Tell me, if you were making balls for bunny butts (swipe, and you’ll know), then what is you go to pom pom maker?

Today my husband and I celebrated double-digit temperatures ☀️ by getting out. of. the. house!
.
We ate cheeseburgers and drank beer.
.
We scoured 2 antique shops and emerged with an arm load of goodies.
.
We hit up a quilt shop and while he was encouraging as he followed me around, it quickly became annoying to have a husband trailing me.
.
So I bought 5 fat quarters and made a mental note to return without him under foot!
.
He’s a good sport though! This vintage lunch box was one of my finds!
.
Hope you have double digits ☀️ wherever you are at!!
