Time to Dust Off the Old Blog



Okay, folks. The time has come to do some real writing. I have become inspired by a fellow Etsian, who is also a fellow teacher at my school; and also by my daughter who is also a fellow Etsian, to begin blogging again. Did you follow all those convoluted relationships? That's some real inspiration right there!
If my daughter, who has two little children and another on the way, has time to make things and blog and read and keep up an apartment, and get ready to move into a new house - well, then surely an old almost-60-year old Grammy of said daughter's children, who is on summer break from teaching, has time to dust off the computer keyboard and do some blogging.
Heretofore I have been blogging about anything and everything that comes to my mind. And with a mind like mine, that could be a very wide variety of anything, everything, and sometimes nothing. But I have decided to make this blog now mostly about my creative thoughts, especially what I have been doing for my Etsy Shop: TheSquareGrammy. Also, I will do as other Etsians do in their blogs - feature some of my favorite shops and people, etc., etc. For today, though, I think I'll just introduce a few of my newest items in my shop.
This week I've added 4 little whimsical embellishments or appliques to TheSquareGrammy. They measure an average of 3-4 inches wide, and can be used to spark up your clothing, beach bags, shoes, hats, or even just to set around in plants or on a bookshelf. The cute, summery smiley sunshine, purple octopus, golfish and ladybug are only $4 each or $7 if you buy 2 of them.
They're crocheted from regular yarn, and can be washed by hand.
Well, that's all for today, friends. I'm hoping to gain a few readers as time goes along. If you enjoy wandering along through my brain as I put my thoughts into words, please join me. I hope to be able to write informational, yet enjoyable blogs, that readers of different ages and interests will like to come back again and again to read. If you enjoy reading something or have a question, please leave me a comment!
