Learning to Block Crochet
I have been crocheting since 2013 and have never blocked a project since I’ve mostly dabbled in amigurumi which do not require blocking. My current WIP has a netted look (I’ll disclose what it is later in case it doesn’t work out and I end up frogging it). That combined with my incredibly tight crocheting resulted in a bunched up looking rectangle that I could not get to stretch out properly so I decided it was time to learn about blocking.
New Year, New Nail Art
I didn’t use all the colors from the Holo Taco Cristmas Collection in my holiday nail art, so I decided to use the last two shades (plus one from a previous collection) for the new year nail art competition.
Happy 2022!
We didn’t exactly get a white Christmas this year - instead we got a white week after Christmas
Holiday Nail Art 2021
I did it - I recreated the nail art from Holo Taco’s gift-wrapped holographic nail art tutorial on my short little nails.
House Holiday Lights
We have lived in this house for quite a long time and this was the first year we’ve ever put up holiday lights.
Santa Candy Jars
My Mom bought some Santa candy jar kits over the summer and sent them home with me from our STL trip. I worked up an initial version when I got back and he’s pretty darn cute.
Holo Taco Cristmas Collection
When the Cristmas collection I ordered came in, I was so excited to be able to do some holiday decorating with the gorgeous box. That’s probably how you know you have a nail polish problem - you keep telling yourself you’re not going to buy every new Holo Taco collection and yet here we are.
