Crafting Can't Be Rushed (:

Finally finished the last of my orders. 
One thing I've learned about selling homemade things, it isn't easy to take in requests and create them in a rush. It's not like my customers were asking me for them ASAP, but you know, you don't want them to wait forever. 
 

One of these felt critters takes at least 3 hours. I must say, I do love making them though. It's really relaxing. And it's perfect for a preggo woman. Hehe. (: 
I actually have a Marine Keychain request. But I will definitely take my time from now on. 
I'm just so proud to have found something that I enjoy doing. Sure, I'm not really bringing in as much money as my husband, but this is my baby step into the business world of the stay at home mommy. 

Speaking of Mommy... baby bump and I have reached 36 weeks yesterday..
OMG -- how fast did that come? 
She feels so huge in my belly. Constantly moving. I love it. 
It's so bittersweet. I will miss being pregnant, but I can't wait to hold baby in my arms. To meet her.

I just hope she stays put until daddy flies back home! (:

Anyway, time to go back to relaxing. Crafting more.

Crafting Cuties

 

So proud of my  handmade marine (: 
I wish I experimented with crafts earlier on in my pregnancy - I have one month left to totally devote my time to creating new things. 

The only bummer was displaying this on IG, to find no USMC wives liking or inquiring about these cuties. Hopefully I find a way to promote better, and share my new hobby with others. 

I'm seriously my mother's child. She used to create little felt ornaments to sell during the holidays, and now look at me! One piece like this may take a few hours, but I must say, I enjoy it! 
  
Back to crafting (:
