Monday is "What Is It That You Enjoy" day...

I'm joining Faith over at Simple, Vintage and Crochet where Monday is "What is it that you enjoy" day!  Just list four (4) things you enjoy and link up with Faith to let others know you're playing along.

1. I enjoy my first cup of coffee of the day

2. I enjoy walking outside with Gizzy on a cool, crisp day

3. I love the snow and hear it crunch beneath my foot steps

4. I enjoy crocheting very much!

Tag, you're it!

Speaking of crocheting: I'm in the process of making a bunch of heart ornament hangers for Valentine's Day or any occasion really... in fact, I've made a box full already, but am not tired of making more...here's a preview of the ones I'm working on. They need embellishments with either ribbon or beads and then they're ready for selling or giving away...

I like making these for several reasons 1) it's a great opportunity to use up scrap yarn; 2) I love playing/working with colors and the color combination on these are endless; 3) for some reason looking and working with heart shapes makes me smile and 3) it's almost instant gratification, because they don't take that long to make. When I run out of heart shaped bangle bracelets to use, I have some round shower hooks to make round frames like the purple one in the middle photo on the right (with my picture in it.)

Oh, and I should probably show you the backside of my hearts as well. They are so pretty from both sides, that you really do not need to add a picture...they can be just given away "as is" as Valentines...or you could insert a note (instead of a photo) that reads "I love you" or "Be Mine" or "Happy Mother's Day" ... whatever the occasion may be:

The hearts for the backside (as pictured above) were made according to the tutorial in my previous post here!
