Handmade Christmas Pledge Update - Slack Old Me & Calendars

Well havent I been slack. I did so well during Blogtoberfest then you must be thinking that I fell off the face of the earth, lol. I've been working on a big project that I will share with you all shortly. I have also been doing some Christmas shopping.

Along with the Film v Bullet Backpack in my Teen Boys post, I also picked up this great Vintage US Air Force Belt Buckle for my son.

This really cool pocket for my son to use as a pencil case at High School. It's made from bike tubes.

Everyone need a good calendar every year (I have 3 up in my house atm) so here a couple of my favs.

I love this Great Outdoors Letterpress Calendar, for some reason it reminds me of Canada.

 2011 Letterpress Wall calendar by Flora and Fauna

Wouldn't this calendar be great beside the home phone. I love the retro style.

This printable calendar, would be perfect for when I'm doing my budget. It would give me something nice to look at while I'm doing such a dreaded thing, and it would be such a help.

I'm over my slacking now and will be back to blogging everyday. 

Handmade Christmas Pledge Update - Teen Boys

So the other night I was having a bit of a melt down over the fact that it  really hard to buy presents for a child that is going to be starting high school because it is quite normal that kids change after they start, it can be even harder if you are looking for handmade. You don't want to be buying something that only use for a short time. So after chatting Dannielle from With2ns on twitter I went on a big search and I think I have found a great bunch of goodies that my son's going to love.

As soon as I saw this beanie I knew that I had to get it, Dion is off to Japan in March to Snowboard, so this will be perfect.

Pirate Ahoy Beanie ordered from NingNingGong

What great artwork this would be for a boys room.

If I had a penny for the amount of times my son has said this to me, I wouldn't be very rich but I could buy myself something really nice. hahaha

What a great use of broken skateboards.

Got to have a great bag to start high school with.

New Goodies

Today I finally got around to lists my new Artist Pencils Roll. It has enough slots to hold 24 pencils and a spare for a paint brush or a lead pencil. Perfect for art on the go. So far I have listed them on my Madeit Shop and hopefully I will have them up to my other shops shortly.

They are also available in these fabrics. 

Also Clue 6 is available from the Bernat Blog so stop by to follow along.
