I am Nicky,
an island girl, living in an urban jungle
a Bibliophile. Accessory obsessed. Soap Maker. Novice Photographer. Vinyl Record Collector. A sometimes seamstress. Now a Newbie knitter. A newbie hooker … errr … get your mind out of the gutter. The hooking I refer to is crochet. 😛
Yarn hoarder. Needle lover.
Knits with tea, scones and classical music playing on my vintage record player, wondering when the soap batch is going to be done.
One craft at a time, creating the good life.

You were born with potential
You were born with goodness and trust
You were born with ideals and dreams
You were born with greatness
You were born with wings
You are not meant for crawling, so don’t.
You have wings
Learn to use them, and fly.

I’D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!
Hi, I just wanted you to know i nominated you for the Liebster Award! Check it out! http://cmingalls.wordpress.com/2013/07/30/liebster-award/
Hi Rumi,
Hooray for early Christmas posts. I did one in February… or was that January? Anyway, I’ve been thinking about updating that post, since I’ll be starting to make my Christmas gifts in a few weeks. Let’s see… I’m going to do a combination of crochet items, handmade jewelry, and perhaps some sewing tossed in? Additionally I’ll be making soap.
I’ve always appreciated handmade gifts from others, since at I know how much thought (and time) can go into many of those items, because of that they’ve meant more to me than the store bought gifts I’ve received. 🙂
It makes a lot of sense to get your projects started early. That’s exactly, why I’m starting early too. I want all my gifts made well in advance.
Wishing you all the best, and hopefully you’ll complete all your hand crafted items long before Christmas arrives. 🙂
