Hello, My name is Faith, and I'm an addict

I have a slight (big) problem with crafting. I'm a do-it-yourself-er to the core...and I have closets full of fabric, scrapbooking, crocheting, painting, and so on. Here's what I'm doing this week...I told you I have a problem, don't judge.
In all fairness, this is for Carter to do... :-)
That's some jewelry making supplies I intend to experiment with

and this is a present for Tom I'm working on, not sure where to go from here, perhaps a border or something...

Merry Christmas to ME!

As one tired mommy, I love my coffee. I've wanted one of these for awhile now, but my husband wasnt a fan. So this year, with my christmas money... I got myself one, haha! Since he'll be gone quite a bit over the next year or so, I got tired of grinding and making 4 cups of coffee only to use one. (I mean, when you make one cup in a 8 cup coffee maker, it tastes terrible!) Plus the drips from the filter, etc. I just made my first cup with this bad boy...and so far, LOVE it! Also I got a reusable cup called "My K-Cup" where you can use your own coffee, for those (like Tom) who think it's crazy to pay $0.50 per cup (despite the fact we go to starbucks...alot). Best of both worlds if you ask me :-) We'll see the verdict when Tom returns from his latest adventure.

New Adventures for Baby Graham

It's that time again, folks...solid food! As my youngest son is now over 4.5 months, it's time to start thinking, practicing, and maybe even trying solid foods over the next 6 weeks or so. It's a fun time for me, as I really love making baby food, but it's also terribly sad that my little guy is getting so big, so fast. Sigh, I guess this is why people keep having kids...

You havent had cinnamon rolls until you've made them from scratch

Halloween

More Appliques

I went ahead and did a bunch of appliques at once. Some of them had missing peices at the time such as wheels and faces, but you get the idea. I even dyed my own shirts. I just bought a multi-pack of shirts and bought fabric dye (green, navy, and brown). I dyed them in the washer, very easy to do, and cheap!
