It's what time of year?

I can not believe that it is almost the end of the year!  Where did it all go?  I feel like I haven't gotten anything done!  I still haven't made my little mock-up photo "studio" (a cardboard box with a nice smooth and plain background) and I haven't gotten my Etsy shop back up and running.  Good news is that I got more work doing creative things than I have in previous years.
While I know the year is not over, I definitely plan to be more productive next year.

Some finished things.

While I am not completely done with everything needed for The Accessory Lady (she needed to get some things for me and we have yet to meet again) but I have been able to work on some things of my own.

A few not very exciting, but still cute bottle-cap pendants.

Here are some fabric card holders.

 These are a few pocket tissue covers.

The fancy kanzashi pictured here was a birthday present to the person in the picture, but I Pam to make similar ones to sell.

 Like the other picture, this exact one was a birthday present, but I plan to make more of these in different colors.

I send a copy of a few of these pictures to a shop who I'm hoping to sell my things through.  I've seen their website and they have some really cute consignment items.  I'm hoping they like what they see!

Lazy person is lazy...

I keep telling myself that I either need to finish the last few things for The Accessory Lady or work on things to show the consignment shop. I've done neither of those things, but I have done some things.
I have figured out the size I need to make the wallet so that it can fit money folded once. I've also worked on some charity things for my other project.

If it ain't broke...

I think the crafting gods are trying to tell me something. It boils down to: if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I was hoping to be able to post a product picture today, but that was not in the cards. The first one I tried to make failed at the very beginning. The second was looking pretty good until I tried to sew it. A few thread issues later I had it all assembled.
Somehow it was too small! The outside also got messed-up when I tried to fix it.
Hopefully the third time is a charm and I will be able to post some good news!

I'm not sure there is an end...

I keep slowly creeping to the end of my commissioned/freelance accessory job, but I don't seem to be able to actually get to the end.
I was also hoping to get some stuff for the shop done while I was at an event in GA, but I was having too much fun running around to sit and make anything.
In good news, one of my friends works at a boutique in DC. They specialize in recycled and upcycled items. My friend thinks that if I made some fabric flowers and card-holders out of old shirts and ties, they might be interested.
Once I get some time I am going to make some inventory and contract them for a meeting, I'm exited!

Is that a light I see?

The end is really getting near now. While that is a good thing, it is also a bad thing. The Accessory Lady is making less sense than usual.
One minute she is saying that she is disappointed that I didn't get more done (even though I told her I was sick) and then telling me how she appreciates how much I have gotten done.
I am looking forward to one day though. She wants to learn how to make all of these, then she will see how hard it is, and how time consuming. (I also have a feeling we well need more than one day)

There might be hope (but probably not)

So this is the crunch week before the big meeting. Of course I have over three designs to finish in that time. I had hopes, then I became 2 days behind. I had no idea how I would even get close to getting done.
Now I'm starting to think that if my idea works and I change the order I do things in, there might be hope again.
Fingers crossed everyone!
