It’s Market Time Again

It’s spring again in Dallas. You can tell by the sniffles all around. Everything is blooming. This is also the time of year when I pack up my critter creations and head down the street to the White Rock Local Market. If you live in Dallas or are just lucky enough to be visiting our fair city this weekend, come on by for fresh veggies and flowers, delectable baked goods and wonderful handmade items. The market takes place from 8:00 am until 1:00 pm Saturday, April 14 on Buckner Blvd. @ Northcliff Dr. Hope to see you there.

Pile of Catnip Snakes

Getting ready for the White Rock Local Market here in Dallas this Saturday. I’m bringing lots of cuteness for sale including this pile of new catnip snakes. Your cat wants a catnip snake. Don’t disappoint your kitty.

I have branched out. I now have my creations available at another website, the coolest cat shop on the net,  hey kitty kitty. I have made a special selection of cat shaped pillows and catnip snakes for hey kitty kitty. You can only purchase these items via the hey kitty kitty website. Go look and buy! Thanks.

Beyond Crocheted Critters

Sometimes I get bored crocheting critters. Sometimes. Today is one of those sometimes. I am in the middle of creating a custom crocheted critter destined to be a Valentine’s Day gift so I can not procrastinate as much as I would like to. If I didn’t have this deadline in my face, I think I would still want to spend the weekend crocheting, but not a critter. No, I would be trying to figure out how to make this dress since there is no way on this planet that I can afford to plunk down $550 for a dress no matter how incredibly gorgeous it is. Yes, I believe it is worth every penny. It is hand crocheted. It looks amazing. It is made of Pima cotton. Look at those colors. Look at those stitches. I want this dress. I need this dress. I am obsessed with this dress.

Damn you Peruvian Connection and your wonderful works of art that I will never be able to afford. Sigh. End of rant. Back to critter creation.

New Catnip Snakes

Hand drawn, machine sewn and hand stuffed with lots of catnip and poly-fill. Waiting for you in my Etsy shop. Click on photo to be taken to meet and buy the snakes. Your cat(s) will love you for it.

Latest Crocheted Critters

These are the latest critters that I’ve created. The little bee striped dachshund has found a new home but the fuzzy cat and the brown striped chenille dog are still looking.

Click on the fuzzy cat’s or brown striped chenille dog’s picture to be taken to my Etsy shop to view more images and apply for adoption. Click on the doxie’s picture to see him bigger. Enjoy.

Candy Stripes

Almost a year ago, (has it really been that long?) The Plush Team, had a show of our work at the  Hot Pop Gallery in Milwaukee, WI. The show was candy themed and I made a Peppermint Pup and a Candy Cane Cat. I was going to keep them in my collection but I got in the holiday mood and put them in my Etsy shop in hopes that they make someone happy on Christmas morning. Click on the picture and you’ll be taken there to see more pictures and have the opportunity to be the one that brings home the striped smiles this holiday.

Friday Night

Come down to the Dallas Arts District Friday night for a fun filled evening of food trucks, live music, museums open late and local art. I’ll have all my critter creations with me so you can get an early start on that holiday shopping. Hope to see your smiling faces there.

It’s Market Time & The Weather Will Be Perfect Once Again

This Saturday, the weathermen say the high temperature is supposed to be a beautiful 73°. Makes me glad that once again I’m packing up all my critter creations and setting up my booth at this month’s market.

If you live in Dallas, or are lucky enough to be here this Saturday, November 12, come by the White Rock Local Market and see what I haul out of my studio and bring along.  I have a new crocheted striped wienie dog that should be ready to bring along by then. Will also have a couple of plush holiday turkeys with me.

There will also be lots of fresh veggies, baked goods & honey for sale as well as vendors of handmade and cool items like vintage bikes. While the main attraction will be the local produce and other delectable food stuff, the handmade selections are very fine indeed.

The market is from 8am to 1pm. Located by White Rock Lake, click the picture to get the specifics. Hope to see you there. Come by and say hi!
