Queen (Bee) for a Day
I made it to The Queen Bee Market today and had a great time! There were 50+ vendors and it was great to see what everyone was making. I will write more later in the week to share about all of the beautiful handmade goodies I saw. For now, I'll just show you what I actually purchased. I was in need of a gift for my grandmother's upcoming 80th birthday, and couldn't resist once I saw this piece from Art by Erin Leigh!
What you can't see from the picture is the depth and layering in the art. All of Erin's artwork included a variety of media, layered one on top of the other to create a beautiful work of art. I can't wait to give this one to my grandmother! Here are a couple more of my favorites by Erin:

Taking a Much-Needed Crafting Break!
I am so happy that I was able to make and donate all those little hats! However, my right hand is throbbing! So, today I've been browing the web instead of crafting, and I came across this amazing crocheted hat from BeardHead.com. I wish I had the pattern (and knew how to crochet) so that I could make some. Anyone else interested in giving it a try? :)
Don't worry, girls. There's one for you too!
