revive - unique handicrafts: Just Cause

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2009/02/just-cause.html

Friday, February 27, 2009. So, I was approached by a friend. About contributing to a fund raising auction for an important cause. And wasn't really sure what to make or do. I had made this "bucket" about a month ago, mostly as a prototype - but couldn't seem to wrap my head around what else to do with it - it was made using a felted vintage icelandic sweater, and vintage bed linens. It's highly functional, and interesting textures. So, this ended up being donated for the auction. March 4, 2009 at 3:04 PM.

revive - unique handicrafts: June 2008

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 10, 2008. A Time for Everything. Alright, yes. I've been swamped. But seriously, three kids keep one especially busy! But, even though I've been silent on the blog-scene, it doesn't mean that I haven't been productive, creatively. So, there! I also managed to nab some sweet vintage Singer sewing machine accessory boxes. little, perfect. brick shaped boxes. with fitted lids. mmmm. I really love how, she used these fabrics for other things, and then I was able to make a completely new thing w...

revive - unique handicrafts: February 2008

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html

Wednesday, February 20, 2008. Anyway, here's her store. And a sample of what she does. I am more than impressed, and one of her hand-stitched, reverse applique shirts, is on it's way to me as we speak! I can't wait to advertise for her. Her shop is New Flight, and if you see something you like, place an order and tell her I sent you. It's so great to find a great shop on Etsy. Come back and read more soon! And keep buying handmade! Trust me, you'll know the different instantly! Saturday, February 2, 2008.

revive - unique handicrafts: November 2008

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, November 13, 2008. I found this at a fabulous second hand sale. Funny thing is, I'm not even sure what it is. It is definitely made of seriously cool polyester squares, from previously loved clothing. but it's not a quilt. Well, at least, it's not a quilt that you would put on a bed. or a lap. or anything else I could think of. Maybe it once warmed the back of a couch? It is the only thing I can think of that would require such a long, skinny, quilt. Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Well, hello there!

revive - unique handicrafts: January 2008

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Thursday, January 31, 2008. So, I've got some great stuff coming up, and some newer creations that I'm working on, and just haven't had as many hours as I'd hoped, with chasing 3 kids around and stuff. like cleaning up and sorting. and trying to keep our house livable. I usually peddle my wares on Etsy. You can visit me at my shop. Or you can see me at various shows around the valley. I've recently joined a like-minded group of hand-crafters from the etsy community,and we're now "Idaho Indie Works".

revive - unique handicrafts: Whatcha-makin' Bags

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2009/03/whatcha-makin-bags.html

Tuesday, March 17, 2009. Hello there. I've been tied up in yarn lately, and haven't had a chance to post. But I saw a pic of a fabulous project bag featured on this blog. And have been daydreaming about it ever since. My friend, who happens to own my LYS. Called to ask if I had any knitting totes. I didn't at the time, but I quickly got to work throwing these together. Anyway, if you're in the market for a bag to carry your latest project in, you can find these bags and more at Puffy Mondae's. Awesome wo...

revive - unique handicrafts: April 2009

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Thursday, April 2, 2009. The Greatest Part about Yesterday. I was reading through the blogs I subscribe to yesterday, and Gracie was checking it out with me - when we stumbled upon this. Without saying a word, Gracie grabbed some paper and went to the table. A few minutes later she says, "Mommy, this is what we need to do.". These are her directions for her project - all planned out before she started! Sounds like someone i know). She says, "I'll need some tape too.". And she set to work.

revive - unique handicrafts: Ideas, Ideas...

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2009/02/ideas-ideas.html

Tuesday, February 3, 2009. In the meantime, I need to be consistent with my posting, blogging and also try a giveaway or two, to see if anyone actually reads this blog. Maybe it's because this is Gracie's first year of school, and maybe it's because I love hearts - but I've already jumped head-first into making Valentine's for her classmates. Why make them when you can buy them? Because I love all things handmade, because I was inspired by these. Then we painted the backs red. Then Gracie signed her name.

revive - unique handicrafts: March 2008

http://revivenampa.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Saturday, March 15, 2008. Yeah, I am really itching to buy some new fabric - and I think after I receive payment on this next purchase, I will buy a LOT of new fabric. Here are some beautiful textiles that have been really singing to me lately. First up, my very own sister-in-law, Lacey. Not only is she a talented artist, and mom - but she has decided to produce textiles. I mean, she's hand dying, batiking, printing. creating absolutely beautiful fabrics, which I MUST get my hands on! And yes, this next ...
