Announcing . . .

I will now be offering more goodies for those who like crafting. Today Provo Craft launches Mixology Crafts. This is a content blog that will offer daily projects in the areas of Home, Fashion, Paper and Jewelry. I have three other fabulous crafting partners Erin (CA), Michelle (FL) and Sarah (AZ). This is one worth bookmarking if you want crafting ideas. My projects will go online every Monday so come visit me. I will also have other new projects posted weekly on my personal crafting site Lovely Lula.

Fun with crafty pals at SXSW

I went to SXSW in Austin with the fun folks from Provo Craft and Sarah from 26-Letters to screen print with the YUDU in partnership with Standard  Recording Company. The guys from Standard Recording made a fun tee shirt with cowboys shooting yarn that we screened for a couple hundred friends at the Dirty Dog Bar on 6th Street. The bands that played all day were great! Thanks Standard Recording for the great sounds. And since all crafty folks stick together we also hung out with Jenny Hart from Sublime Stitching, the gals from Austin Etsy and Martha from Sunday Afternoon Housewife. We pulled screens, shopped a bit from the other folks, listened to music and drank a little beer. The Austin Etsy folks had a lino printing and book making workshop going on. Later that night we also had dinner with Jennifer Perkins of the Naughty Secretary’s Club. Her jewelry is soooo great!
