    I recently decided I wanted to attempt a Ridge Runt that looked more like a pitbull terrier than the usual hound type of face. I have a hard time keeping in mind that due to the small size of the Ridge Runts and thick yarn I tend to lose a lot of detail options. I…

    I made my first Ridge Runt using a furry yarn. It wasn’t the easiest to navigate but was definitely not as hard as I expected it to be. The yarn portion is thinner than what I usually use so it did turn it a little smaller than the usual pups. Someone recently asked me if…

    My hooks have been super busy making baked goods lately. My kids got really excited when I made their favorite cake flavors for pretend play. I love the carrot cake and chocolate cake myself. 🎂🍰 Which are your favorites? I think I might add a candle on top of some of the cakes. I’ll update…

    I designed and made this hat about 5 years ago. I’m not sure if it was originally for myself or my husband but he tends to wear it out more than I have a chance to, so I’ll say it’s his. I love this dead fish hat, it’s my favorite hat, for my favorite guy.

    Our website has recently changed in a big way (a good way). After a lot of prayer and conversations we’ve finally changed it to be about our ministry instead of just a shop. It has been on my heart for years to start a ministry for children who have suffered from abuse, sexual abuse, neglect,…

    I know it’s still fall, and temperatures haven’t really dropped yet here in Texas, but I have been busy making snowmen. It took me a little while to figure out how I wanted them to look but I’m pretty happy with these. I won’t be putting these up for sale right now on the site,…

    Over 12 years ago I started amigurumi, which is crochet or knit (in my case crochet) creatures or objects out of yarn. I’ve made some dolls but mostly enjoy making animals.  Today my husband was going through our garage, which we’ve had to use for storage since having to tear the house down, and he…

    I will admit, I was kind of excited to recently purchase a VHS player for our kids at the thrift store. We don’t watch television except for some DVDs we have. We actually got rid of our TV about 7 years ago and have used a laptop for any DVDs we want to watch. We wound…
