A New Year Has Arrived!

WOW! Didn't realize just how far behind I had gotten on my blogging!!!

My jewelry set ended up in second place in the War of the Worlds contest, and my scarf ended up in sixth place (see previous posts for more information).

The holidays have come and gone -- they were lovely!

One of my most exciting Christmas gifts was a Zutter Bind-It-All from my Mom. I have soooooooooooooo many plans and cannot wait to start playing with it! Mom is also looking forward to some "play time" of her own with my newest toy!!!

I have also finally followed my Mom's lead and joined Swap-Bot! What??? You've never heard of Swap-Bot??? Here's some info from their home page....

Do you like sending and receiving snail mail? Do you like writing letters, making crafts, or putting together fun packages? You should try swapping! Swap-bot is a online service that organizes group swaps and a community of creative individuals. Swap-bot takes the hassle out of participating in group swaps by organizing all of the participant information and doing all of the partner assignments. On Swap-bot, you can host swaps, join swaps, and chat with other swappers from all over the world. Give it a try!

I have completed a few swaps already, and have received a few goodies also! Will post more about these swaps, along with pics, soon.

I don't really make New Year Resolutions, but I hope to craft more this year, spend more time with family and friends, and truly make my new house my HOME!

Here's hoping for a happy and healthy 2009!
