And Now for Something a Little Different

I never know quite what I'm going to end up with when I start writing these posts. But then I came across this guitar pick, and I had a theme. Stuff I would not expect.

Or music. Perhaps I'm thinking of music. Because this is a cute onesie, and... Guitar. Pick. Guitar Pick.

And this just made me laugh.

Continuing what is turning out to be a rocker theme, this cuff would fit perfectly at any sort of concert.

Here's a different sort of crocheted hat. We usually see beanies, so this would be something you would not expect.

Here's a bit of wall art for the dinosaur enthusiast. Or the 5-year-old in all of us.

Of course, I couldn't do a post without a pair of earrings. And they're orange, too. Bonus!

A Little Green

For October, I thought I'd see what green items our team has made...  

Green? What, you were expecting orange?  

(I just finished the cutest--if I do say so myself--green patchwork purse. I have green on my mind.)  

I love knits. And crochet. So, of course, the yarny items stood out. Felt is such a perfect fabric for coasters (I wonder that I didn't think of this.)

This scarf is such a stunning dark green.

I've never been able to get a brim to work on a hat. I'll have to ask how she did it.

Here's a paler green on a sewn purse. Great shape.

I can't seem to do a post without a pair of earrings. I wonder why that is.

Very cheery. And there's just something about a purple/green combo that I love.

And if you have a mezuzah affixed to your doorway, what better cover for it than one in green.

This post contributed by Liz at Zizi Rho Designs who cannot do a post with a color theme in a color that makes sense for that month. It's a thing.

Also, we're looking for volunteers to post here, guest or regular. Let us know. We'd love to have you on board.
