Reopening doors, were back in business!
Now that I've graduated and have more time on my hands I have once again rekindled my love affair with crafting and have been keeping myself busy making things. It's been awhile since I have even updated this blog, so a little revamping was in order. New layout, new header. and without further a do.. new content!
From this moment on I shall embark on a journey in which the results of my hours obsessing over stitches, hot glue, fabrics, trimming, and putting my dumpster finds to good use will undergo a decent amount of documentation. Wish me luck!

ll start off with a little something mildly flavored...

I like my coffee hot
Just because I've become a master at procrastination and I'm of course still up at this ungodly hour in the morning I thought i'd combine my need for coffee with a productive eco-friendly tip.
In lieu of Syracuse's Earth Week celebration, I have found myself bombarded with discussions about sustainability and green alternatives. Among these conversations, my friend Lindsay recently mentioned she keeps the heat protective sleeves from People's Place and reuses them. So her comment quickly turned into a crafty lightbulb moment: COZIES!
First thing that came to mind, crochet and felt. Handmade cozies make for a great alternative to double cups and cardboard or carton heat sleeves that people often throw away. While I can't make every coffee shop invest in compostable hot cups or corn-based coated cups, reusable cozies can certainly aid in reducing the amount of cups wasted... and keeping you from burning your fingers off.

Craft Chemistry
Just found about this place called Craft Chemistry in downtown syracuse,
Way excited to make my way there soon.
They sell local crafts and artwork, serve as an artist space and host a studio lab that provides a space for crafting circles, gallery space, and general art-making. Im particularly excited about their research lab- they have everything from juxtapoz and high fructose to american craft, the big ass book of crafts and I.D. magazine.
