some of you might remember that *last* year I did this thing – this little appearance in Venus magazine.

This year I noticed that they were running the contest again, so I thought “ha! wouldn’t it be funny if I won again?”. Except I did win, and instead of funny it was more like “omg – are you serious? I can’t believe I won this thing two years in a row!”.

This year I submitted my tutorial on how to make bike seat rain covers (tutorial link to appear soon!). And they loved it. I love it too – and they sell. The twenty of them I took to ladyfest yesterday have found themselves new bikes to call home. And just in time for the seriously crappy weather. Nothing says I love my bike than a replacement for your not-so-classic-looking Hartmans bag!

So, if you’re in your local magazine shop, check out a copy of the December issue of Venus – there are lots of great ideas, and Cat Power is on the cover, too!

carried over through sunday, since I’ve *finally* showed this off to it’s new owners!

This is why I have not been posting. November = craft mania.

See you tomorrow (I hope!). The show runs from 10 – 5 on the second floor or the Jack Purcell center (just off Elgin Street).

If it’s anything like last year, be prepared for crazy. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy.

Stay tuned for more posts today. Cool things are brewing (and showing up in my mailbox)!
