Planning Ahead: Calendars and Ornaments

Daily Color: “Time present and time past / Are both perhaps present in time future / And time future contained in time past.” ―T.S. Eliot

I know. It's only mid-August. But I'm planning ahead for the coming holiday season. There are craft fairs coming up, and even though I consider temari to be year-round decorative objects, many people see them as holiday ornaments and gifts. So, with that in mind, I've begun building inventory and stocking up my online shops (webshop and Etsy). I'm featuring the newest additions here today. And keep in mind that my web and Etsy shops contain unique items--if you don't see what you want in one, be sure to look at the other, too.

Hot off the press--Yarndance 2016 wall calendars, featuring 12 photos of my original temari.

Some sample pages:

January

Lots of room to note important dates and appointments

September

I've also listed small temari ornaments.

These are available in sets of three, in ten different colorways, including these (please note that there is only one set available for each colorway):

I'm stitching new temari as fast as my fingers can manage, and will be updating both the webshop and the Etsy shop on a regular basis, so do check back from time to time to see the most current offerings.

In the mean time, be sure to enjoy the rest of the summer!
