No matter what our age or condition,
there are still untapped possibilities within us
and new beauty waiting to be born.

Item of the Day - Squirrels

This sweet little squirrel is crocheted with love in light green yarn with a fabulous fun-fur tail - so soft and fluffy. He is suitable for all ages due to his safety eyes and washable nature.
What could be cuter to celebrate the end of Fall? He also makes an excellent stocking stuffer.
More colours will be added soon. Why not order one?

Item of the day - wire crochet Christmas ornaments

It's still early, I know. But since my last wire order arrived, I couldn't hold myself back. Christmas ornaments from crocheted copper wire in different colors and there are still so many more to try out!
And an extra bonus is that they can't break! ;-)
