I was browsing the blogs yestesrday and came across this. It just made me happy! Then I went to this flickr group. I am now in love with red and white. Maybe it's left over from Christmas, or maybe it's in preparation for Valentines! Anyhoo, I cut these out yesterday:
And started making these:
I'm not sure what I'll make with these yet. Some ideas roaming around my little h i99ead: a garland for next Christmas (yikes!), Valentine's garland, embellishment for Valentine cards, embellishments for tags or gift ties. . . anything else?
Then I remembered this bracelet and earring set I made a while ago:
I'm in love with red and white! It's got me energized to create. Yay!
Here's my current list of projects I want to get done:
~ Flower brooches (Simply Pretty)
~ Valentine and birthday cards (Simply Heartfelt)
~ make more jewelry for the etsy store
~ make tissue holders
~ crochet pillow and attempt amigurumi animals (I'm going to try Myra!)
~ knit something, anything (may take you up on the Aloha Knitters group Barb!)
~ sew bags
That's about it for now - whew!
Yoyos! Now that's something I want to try. Good luck with your list!

Hi, Stace! Thank you for the mention on your blog. I loved the colors this month, too. Nice transition from candy canes to Valentines, no? Your coordinating jewelry is lovely.
I saw your to-do list and wanted to pass on the tutorial I followed for the red and white travel tissue holder. It's at the Bella Dia blog: http://belladia.typepad.com/photos/travel_tissue_holder_tuto/index.html
