Here, then gone...

That's how the holidays are, that's how this "winter break" has been, I feel like it has barely begun and I'm already dreading going back to work and class! I still have a paper to write, too. Ha, one of these days.

Here's a freebie template for my digi fans; it's called Topped. Click the preview below to download!




I have also finished my first Snugglie Tent! It is definitely fitting for sugar gliders and rats. If you have a short cage for a hedgehog, you could hang it in there too! Here's a peek.


I also finished up that cage set for sugar gliders. Both items are available on Etsy! More to come :0)

Splatter!

Here you are digi-scrappers!!! A freebie template as promised....


It's titled "Splatter" because I felt like the stars and flowers just splatted right on there. I thought it might be interested to have photo mats in decreasing size as well.

****Snugglie Bag fans: Check out our Facebook link (in the right column--->) to find a 20% premade bag deal! This deal will end on Thursday!!****

Spoiler Alert!

It's almost Winter Break!!!!
Woooo!


We teachers get excited. Two weeks of rest.... when really, all we will be doing is dreading coming back the whole time. Today I wanted to give the Snugglie Bag folks a preview of what is to come in the next few days.








1. A sugar glider cage set that includes: 2 Hammocks, 2 Small Bags w/ attachments, and a Bridge. I used a cute butterfly pattern for it. I haven't finished the bridge yet, need a tool from JoAnn's to make sure the large grommets are in safely... but no worries, I'm going there tonight to get it.








2 & 3. The beginnings of my first huts! The pink just needs hooks(and that darn JoAnn's tool!) and I will be making an absorbent pad for the inside to be easily washable. The stars has a ways to go.






Noodles was out on the prowl yesterday. I felt she needed to stretch those legs. She felt she needed to get crazy with a sheet from under the linen closet door. It's hedgehog slobber cute?? :-\ At least today you get to see her white side. It seems like I'm always getting the black side.










For my digi-scrappers..... Template to come tonight :0)


I hope everyone is getting ready for the holidays and BUNDLE UP!!! It's 9 degrees here right now and I for one will be wearing 2 coats. Can't be thankful enough for having heat included in the rent too!

Finally Lined!

I finally got around to sewing a cage liner for my spikey princess, Noodles! Her mats are wearing out after being washed so much so I decided to make a liner (one layer fleece, 2 layers Zorb diaper material). It came out alright (it fits her cage no exposed seams). She seems alright with it as well. But what she didn't like was me taking out her hut and putting her Snugglie Bag back in.... let me rephrase that: She doesn't like her White Sox bag! Everytime I put that particular bag in, she throws a fit, i.e. she throws her stuff all over her cage. She loves her froggie and skulls/hearts bags, but has out grown them. I was funny watching her rearrange her sleeping house over and over.... Check it out below!

Here's how it started (see her new liner:0)

Then she got angry at my choice of bags...




She flipped over her stuffed hedgie and moved her bag.


 So she flips the bag out and runs into her wheel/food house. [Her house is two rubbermaid buckets attached by a Chube]

Here she is. My princess, Noodles. As far as I can tell, she's a snowflake pinto, with a lot of white, despite how the pictures show her. She eventually gave in and slept in her white sox bag.

Here's a video of her last attempt at ousting her Sox bags.... she slept underneath it for a while. But after a run in her wheel, she wanted a nice comfy place to sleep.


I hope you guys enjoyed meeting my little lady. Many people don't have experience or have never seen a hedgehog so yup. Stay tuned for another freebie template coming soon this week.....

Also if you are hedgehog fan, or know someone who is... check out my Etsy store where I offer Snugglie Bags for hedgehogs, sugar gliders, guinea pigs, rats, ferrets, kittens.....all kinds of small animals. Link located on the top right of the page! I am still taking custom orders for the holidays if you are looking for something special!

Holly Jolly!

It's that time of year again! You know... when we are running around like crazy people trying to find the perfect gift and get the best deals. It's a love-hate relationship...I think many of you will have to agree. I thought this year would be my first not working during the holiday season, seeing as I have a degree that has graciously given me a job that gives me the holidays off. Alas, I have succumbed to retail yet again and worked Black Friday and will be working once we are on winter break. I would really LOVE to get a MacBook Pro... perhaps I can save up enough to get one... I'm like a little kid. Ha.

Anyone, I have a great deal for you all today... it's a freebie! What's better than free? Beats me.
Here's my latest.. I'm calling it Bubbly Template. You call it whatever you want. Click the image below to download!


For my Snugglie Bag fans, please visit our Facebook page and become a fan!! With Etsy now allowing us to have coupon codes... it makes it even easier for me to post deals for our fans! I am still taking orders for the holidays.... which I know is a rarity for some, as I have run into some companies that stopped weeks ago! 
Snugglie Bags are great for those Christmas present animals and for the animal lover!

I wish everyone a happy shopping weekend :0)
