Change Is Not Always A Bad Thing.

This is a big one. Are you sitting down? Today I am officially announcing the end of the Hooks of Hope blog. It has been a blast letting you all in on my more creative side of life; however, after much deliberation, I have decided to focus on other areas of the Hooks of Hope enterprise and beyond.So here are a few things you should know about this change:1. The Hooks of Hope online shop will

Featured Artist #13: Introducing Lee and Color Me Conscious

2010-02-26T17:04:00.008-05:00

If you have been following my blog for awhile you know that I love jewelry! Love love LOVE it! But do you know what I love even more? Jewelry with a purpose. Lucky for me, I was fortunate enough to stumble upon just that a couple of months ago. Today I am going to introduce you to Lee, the founder of Color Me Conscious. Similar to what mom and I do here at Hooks of Hope, Lee is able to use her

Lets Celebrate! Eli's Birthday and a 30-40-50 Sale.

2010-02-24T09:42:00.009-05:00

Today is my little boy's birthday! It has been three years since he entered the world and made me a mom. THREE YEARS! I still can't believe that it has been that long or that he is not a baby anymore. Okay, he'll really be my baby forever, but according to him (and general consensus) he is now officially a "big boy". I now understand why people tell you it goes by fast...because it does!For this

Back into the swing of things...almost.

Its been awhile since my last post and so much has happened since that I am not quite sure where to begin. I guess we can start from the beginning...A little over two weeks ago I was in a car accident. Nothing too severe, just bad enough to total my car and severely sprain my wrist! Unfortunately, Hooks of Hope has taken the biggest hit in regards to my injury. Without two fully functioning hands

A Post Unlike Any Other

2010-02-10T08:55:00.003-05:00

This is a very unusual post. It may look like the rest, but I assure you it's not. That is because I am writing this post one handed from my new Palm Pre! Only the coolest phone EVER! And who knew it would come in so handy? On last Tuesday I was in a car accident. Nothing to severe (although my car might disagree) but bad enough to leave my right wrist sprained and splinted for a minimum of 7-10

SPECIAL SATURDAY Featured Artist: Introducing Melissa and To Boldly Fold

Its official. I have lost all sense of time and direction! I have become unsure of what day it is, what time it is, and even where I am suppose to be at given points of the day. Confusion has set in and its beginning to effect my work.Yesterday was Friday. On Friday's I feature Etsy artists whose skills amaze me. Yesterday this did not happen. Instead, I was off watching Lost with the hubby

Baby Hooks On the Brain

2010-01-27T22:34:00.003-05:00

With all the excitement of officially embarking on our adoption journey, I can't help but think about the wonderfulness of babies...my own two included! :) So it only makes sense that this week's 30-40-50 sale is all about baby...baby hooks that is! Yes, this week all of our baby hooks are on sale!! Not only that, but their shipping and handling costs have been reduced! There has never been a

Our Adoption Update

2010-01-24T12:47:00.005-05:00

Its been awhile since Aaron and I first announced our decision to pursue adoption. So much time has passed in fact that people have started asking whether or not any new developments have been occurring in this area of our life. The truth: not so much. Well, I guess that's not completely accurate. We have made a few decisions regarding our adoption plan and we are hoping to send in our

Featured Artist #11: Introducing Handmade by Anne Potter

2010-01-22T19:58:00.007-05:00

There are many things I love about running an Etsy business. Its fun, creative, and just plain amazing! But probably the best part of selling crocheted items via Etsy is that it allows me and mom to give back. Thats right, 15% of each purchase made is donated to charity. We keep a tally of how much we have raised both here on the blog and on our shop's front page. Currently, we have raised $61.74

To finish the Sweetheart Blanket Hook in time for the most romantic day of the year! So far I am about half way. Its a good thing I like challenges! :)So while I head off to crochet, I will keep you occupied with this week's 30-40-50 sale items. Each contain the
