    I'm scattered like these buttons between a bevy of projects.  It
    looks like they will all be wrapped up around the same time.  I'm
    finishing up several new patterns, an assortment of kits, a contract
    for a new product line (!!!), and so on.  (More on these soon.)

    Next
    week I'll be at Creative Escape getting raspy from eight-hour days in
    front of a large crowd of crafters.  I'm hoping my loud, floral apron
    will distract everyone from the dark circles under my eyes.  That, and
    under-eye concealer.  Anyone have a favorite brand of concealer to
    recommend?  I'm planning ahead.

    I still need to do my annual
    birthday giveaway.  I've decided to wait till I release some of the new
    goodies I've been developing.  That way the prize will be fresh &
    exciting.  Ya, just you wait.  I haven't forgotten.

    Also, I've
    posted a handful of blackbird necklace charms for purchase.  Since my
    Laura No Peeky post, a ton of you have asked where to get one.  I did
    my research.  It turns out it's a discontinued design, so I decided to
    get what was left & just post them.  They're $3.50 each.  And I
    only have 20 of them.  When they're gone, they're gone.

    Off to a
    ridiculous, private bead sale this evening with my sister.  I'll be
    shopping for doll eyeballs.  Very exciting.  I'm sure I'll be tempted by more glamorous things though.

    Update:  The blackbird pendants are all spoken for.  I do have a similar pendant I'll post soon.  It's floral.  I'll take a photo & let you know when they're up.
