I am however, making this kind of stuffed olive ~ a new softie creation of sweet Olive. I’ve missed my sewing machine, what can I say?

Also, I want to take a moment to handle some business. First I’m in the process of re-designing my blog, and that includes all my links to everyone being removed. I have too many people I want to follow, dont' want to leave anyone out, and it’s just getting too crowded here in my world. I want to say something, because please whatever you do, don’t take it personally. I’m sure you won’t but just incase. Also to those people that I exchanged links with, if you now need to remove me, I totally understand. And to those of you who do, have, and continue to link to me, as always thank you!

The second announcement, is that my plan is to start releasing original creations, including paintings, in limited numbers at shop updates every month to two months. The items that are manufactured offsite will also be limited, so whatever is in my shop now is what is and will be available. I will also be doing a spring cleaning of my Etsy shop by the end of the week, discontinuing some items and prints, so if there’s anything you’ve had your eye on, now’s the time to get it! 

My next update is planned for 1 week from now, on Creative Thursday April 2nd. (The stuffed "olives" will be released then, along with more ceramic creations....) You can pretty much count on the updates to be on Creative Thursday’s, and you can always get a head’s up here at the blog and also via my email list. Otherwise, I’m also known to release "surprise" originals from time to time with an announcement ONLY here at my blog.

Can’t say it enough, but thank you for SO many things!
