Creature Feature

We met this glorious cat at our friends' Adam and Heidi's wedding last month.



I named him Jeffrey and wanted to take him home. We actually seriously discussed bringing him home as he was thought to not have an official owner. Luckily we decided not to take him. I say luckily because he ended up having owners, and I'm glad I'm no guilty of animal theft. He was so sweet and fun that I decided it was about dang time to let my snuggly cat dreams come true. Jezebel Lincoln is only a little snuggly and only when she feels like it.



Enter Double Rainbow Lincoln, the cutest four month old calico kitten that currently resides in my bedroom. Of course, she had to go and have a respiratory infection that we noticed within hours of bringing her home. It's super contagious, so she's been quarantined to our room since then.



She was actually rescued from Casper, Wyoming. Apparently Pet Smart (I think that's what they said) pays to save animals from kill shelters and move them to no kill shelters. Pretty cool!

She is indeed sweet and seems to have some kind of double motor. She has her regular purr, but when she's REALLY happy, another purr seems to come in simultaneously, resulting in what I like to refer to as her double motor.

Anyway, I can't wait for the quarantine to be lifted. Nana wants to hang out with her (but she's scared of Nana) and DR wants to hang out with Jezebel (who is scared of DR). Ahhh, the circle of fear.

Kitty time!

We have a new addition to our family. Please meet Jezebel Lincoln:





So the mini craft fair at the office yesterday was, for the most part, a bust! I didn't actually sell anything. I did get a couple requests, including one actual order if I can make a crayon roll for fat crayons. I think I can handle that.

I did do some tradesies with my homie Dani from Dani Girl Boutique. I got a few super cute books she made and 2 record bowls. My step mom already called dibs on one of those, even though "it will probably make your dad cry." Do people really cry over records melted into bowls? I cry with glee at their majesty, but not in sadness as my dad is presumed to do.

I also bought some nice smelling bath bombs and hand made soap from my table neighbor. I'm excited to try some for myself. Maybe this afternoon if the toddler meat decides to make my day and take a nap?

Here is a purple clutch I made a while ago:



I bought a snap setter last weekend, and I am in love. My old snap setter was just that- OLD. I bought it off of ebay a while ago, and the few times I tried to use it, it decided that we weren't friends. I now have the kind you bang with a hammer, which is actually super fun! Sometimes I really need to beat at something I'm making with a hammer towards the end of its creation.

I reopened the shop after vacationing it yesterday so I could take everything to the craft fair. I decided to slightly reduce my prices. It's hard deciding how much my time is worth to me, and I decided that I could go a little lower without feeling like I'm robbing myself.
