We're Expecting!

I'm happy to announce that we're expecting our first child in late July. This is one of the reasons that I've been pretty quiet on the blog lately. I'm 13 weeks and was sick with all-day "morning" sickness from weeks 6-12. Eric has been an incredible support through this. He's going to be a great dad. Just wanted to introduce the world to our little gummy bear.

We are still planning on living on our boat and raising the baby on board. I'll be making posts on my sailing blog about the specifics about life on board with a baby. Feel free to follow along if you'd like at http://rebelheart.squarespace.com/charlottes-blog/

This is him/her at 8 weeks and and 12 weeks:

Projects for the New Year

It's January and I have a new digital camera! Hallelujah. I'm offering the same DIY/Craft class at school as I did last semester so I'm looking forward to meeting my new students and seeing what creative projects they come up with.

The first projects I'll be working on are this storage container created by ReadyMade Magazine. It's Pringles cans covered in Contact Paper and glued together. So cool.

I'll also be refinishing some beautiful teak lawn chairs and of course, working on my jewelry display boxes.

What are you working on?
