holly finished something?????!!!!!

Yes, that's right! I finished an apron, wahoo!!! And I am almost done with another, just have to sew on the pockets. And two more are cut out! YAY! My etsy shop will be a bit fuller very soon! :) Pictures are pending and will be up when I get home from the movies today.

Also, I am in the process of giving my desk area a much needed facelift. I have a pile of old picture frames that I wasn't using and needed some sort of "art" behind my scrapbooking area that would be cheap. Funds are low and creativity is now flourishing!! I grabbed those frames out of the depths of my closet and framed beautiful pieces of fabric. I must say, they turned out GREAT and I can't wait to make more!



I am also in serious need of a new camera. If anyone has seen the sad little pictures in my Etsy shop, you would have to agree. My camera is just fine for the day-to-day regular pictures, but up close it turns into a blurry mess. Any suggestions on a not-super-expensive camera that will take great up close shots??? Any help would be so appreciated, as I know nothing of the camera-world!!! :)


Have a lovely Sunday everyone!


And thanks to Jenny from AllSorts for inspiring me to blog each day in May!! It is making me feel more creative already:)

Whatever camera you choose, make sure it has a "macro" facility (it looks like a flower symbol). That means it can focus in really tightly. Good luck with your camera search!

Love the framed fabrics! I also visited your shop--what pretty tags! I say take your pictures outside in good natural light. I have an okay camera, too, but it takes gorgeous pics outside and does much better focusing up close.

I am a bad photographer. :( But! I covet whatever camera it is that Alicia from Posy Gets Cozy uses because her photos are always amazing! I know she has blogged about what cameras she recommends before. She use to hate taking photos but now she loves it. I hope I get to that point bc so far I stink at it. :)
