Saturday TastyLinks and Jenny Harada!

I'm so, so excited to have turned in all of the finalized copy for my next book. It's official! WOO HOO! Let the celebration begin!

Speaking of books I am super happy to share the link and the cover for Jenny Harada's FAB new book Me Make Monster. Jenny is a super talented and super fun lady. We shot a The Impatient Crafter video once for YouTube together and she is as fun in person as her whimsical creations. I'm so honored to have a project in the book upcycled from champagne corks. It was difficult drinking enough champagne to have corks for the step by step shots, but I did what needed to be done. Well done, Jenny!



Mr. Fluffy Cloudman actually lives in our bed. My husband has learned to accept him as part of the family. Begrudgingly. Sorry, Drew.

Having used up my quota of exclamation points in this post, I'm afraid I'll have to bid thee a hearty holiday weekend adieu.
