Mason jar cozies

A little while back I had a customer on Etsy ask me to make her a mason jar cozy with a handle that she could carry around. After I made one for her, I started making more and more of them. Here are a couple that I really liked -

Welcome to Crafty Lithuanian

So this is my first post and (I hope) not the last one. 

I've had my Etsy store Silvashop part time for a few years now without a lot of success. And although I heard many people compliment my crafts, I haven't been very successful in selling them. With 3 craft shows this year (one quite good and the other two not so much), I decided that I need to step up and do something! So here it is. I decided to start my blog and share my crafting projects here. If my Etsy store does not become a great success, maybe at least I will have my projects out there and more people will be inspired to make things. 

Another thing I hope this blog will do is to keep me more accountable in both my Etsy shop and my life in general. 

Here is a fun thing to share for today - I made a heart applique card and I just love the different textures of crocheted heart and paper. Since I already had a crocheted heart, I just used matching embroidery yarn to sew it on a simple blank kraft paper card. It turned out very nice - 

Simple and sweet gift and this one is going to my sister! 

Happy crafting! See you soon!
