crafts

We went to the Urban Craft Uprising last weekend. It was a little overwhelming for both of us, as we do not really enjoy shopping for shopping sake. We did get a new lamp! Style Garden refinishes vintage lamps and we got one that goes perfect with our modern, yet comfy style.

We also got some new clothes from Intertwined Designs, a local company that make super comfy and "green" hemp clothing. I learned a lot about hemp and it is good stuff! Did you know that using the same amount of land, hemp produces 250% more fiber than cotton and 600% more than flax? It not just for hippies any more!

We are done shopping for the holidays and I only have a few more things to knit, which will happen next week, when I am on vacation. We are happy to stay home this year and spend the holidays together, as a married couple. Oh, I almost forgot to mention, it snowed! And it stuck! There is snow right now on the cedar tree in front of the window!
