Great information

I've had a lot of people ask me, "How do you work in the round?"  I can never explain it, but I can show them.
Well, the lovely Kayla at Kayla K's Thrifty Ways has a wonderful blog with step by step instructions for ya!

Now, I need to get back to work on a few blankets and hats and a possible new product.  Chat with y'all later!

NEW PRODUCTS *UPDATE*

I was able to sneak outside yesterday before the storms hit.  These are posted on the webstore (http://www.freewebstore.org/kypressdesigns ) but, I'm posting them here so that you can see them better.  Enjoy!

NEW PRODUCTS

As soon as I can get some decent weather (I'm tossing my fist at the sky, can you see?  No? Oh, I just look like an idiot then) I will snag some photos of a few new pieces that I made while I had jewelry items out.  I love them.  I want to keep them.  But I'm willing to give them up in the name of business and happiness and hoping that you'll love them as much as I do.
As for crocheting.... Yeah, no one has ordered anything, so the only people waiting on those are my lovely models and I've been so sore from my long hours at my out-of-home job (and being sick) that I've not been able to focus on my hands for the hooks to do what I need them too.  The jewelry, well, if I screw up, I will possibly cut off my finger or stab myself--so there's a bit of an incentive there.  With the yarn, if I don't get the pieces tight enough, or skip stitches, I have to undo everything and then keep a toddler out of the pile of loose yarn (she's worse than a kitten, I promise you).  However, I don't go anywhere without a project on me though.

ONLINE STORE + PAYPAL

*Hi everyone!  I just wanted to update you... I now have a paypal account, however, it is not linked to a credit card or bank account, so I have no idea how this is going to work!

*I ALSO now have an online store!  Here's to hoping it works!  OR you can just do paypal invoices--I'm perfectly happy with doing that.  The url for my webstore is http://www.freewebstore.org/kypressdesigns  Let me know if things go smoothly over there!

*AS ALWAYS:  If you would like to place an order, feel free to e-mail me at kypressdesigns@gmail.com.  We can always work through all that jazz there :)

I hope you are having a wonderful day!

Please forgive me

To all of my fans that are waiting for giveaway items, please forgive for taking so long.  And those that are still waiting on orders, I apologize as well.  Life has been so crazy the past many weeks.

Formal Collection Contest + DISCOUNT

Alrighty, so, my beautiful and crafty friends over at BreezyBug Boutique (links: facebook page, etsy store, blog/webpage) are having a Formal Collection Contest.  We sent them photos of ourselves in our formal wear and all done up for weddings and proms and they created a contest:  The winner gets $10 shop credit AND their formal line will be named after the winner!  So, here's a link to my photo!
I'm giving 15% discount to everyone who votes for me (and, yes, this may be applied to other discounts).  This stands even if I don't win.  I'll do print screen/screen shots after the contest is over so that I have proof of voting.  Thank you in advance!
I hope everyone has a spectacular Mother's Day!  I'm sick, so I'll be spending my time in bed I believe.  Or not doing anything.  My little Monkey doesn't understand holidays much yet (except Easter, Christmas, and birthdays), so I don't think I'll be getting anything special, which I'm perfectly alright with!
It's 11:50pm now, so I'm going to publish this post and head to bed!  Good night!
