I hope everyone had a good Turkey Day. We sure did. My cousin's wife made the most amazing sweet potato dish ever. When I get the recipe I will post it. It is life changing.

I am thrilled to have a project included in this great new book, Handmade Hellos: Fresh Greeting Card Projects from First-Rate Crafters, put together and edited by the amazing Hello Lucky sisters. I have been a huge fan of their letterpress cards for years. They have a great book here, full of amazing talent. I am super flattered to have been asked to contribute a card design.

Here's my project in the book—an ornament card. Miss Delia graces the page there. Please check out this book and buy it. It's full of great projects and would be a wonderful gift for your crafty friends.

Next up, I am in BUST magazine this month (Oct/Nov) with a deodorant recipe. It's a star-studded crafty issue—Alica's book is featured along (with an apron how-to), and The Small Object has a card project in there, from the Handmade Hello Book, coincidently. There's a great round up of homemade craft projects for easy holiday gifts—it's a great issue

I also was pleased to be interviewed by Collectors Weekly about my apron collection and vintage clothing passion. I have said it before, this site is amazing and huge. If you ever need gift ideas, inspiration, or just want to spend hours researching, please take some time to check out this amazing resource. The interview is long (you know how I can talk) but I was able to bring up both vintage aprons and Blade Runner in the same interview, so that's something, anyway.
