craftivity (better late than never)
My friend, Tsia, recently came out with a book, Craftivity. I finally got myself a copy. I have to say, it’s amazing.
I really, really love the book. It’s the kind of book that is more and more inspirational with every page turn. And the kind of book that makes me wish I was creative like that. (A real goal I have for myself is to be creative with every aspect of my life – to pour passion into everything I create. And to not be so confined by borders.)
Christina (who works with me and has been so great for Tangle) and I set out today to create this pom pom rug for the store.
Isn’t it amazing? Christina is crocheting the base and then we’ll begin the arduous task of making dozens of colorful pom poms. Well, I’m sure it won’t be too bad. I know it will be so beautiful in the store.
Check out the book at amazon or Urban Outfitters or Barns and Noble (and hopefully soon for sale at Tangle too.) It’s one of those books that just makes you happy to revel in the art and beauty contained in the pages.

Hey Allison,
If you don’t already have one, you should get the new Clover pom pom makers. They make it much faster and easier to make a bunch of pom poms!

I forgot I ordered that weeks ago and it’s supposed to come before Christmas. I can’t wait to get it.

Hey Allison,
What other kinds of projects are in there? I’d love to know. Sewing? Knitting?

Love this! You should make a whole bunch and sell them to craft-impared people like myself. ;)
