New Shop

I can now be found at artfire under the name KeriMae. They are having an awesome deal there and I decided to give it a try. I have also added the rapid cart to my blog so you can purchase any of my items showing right from here. Is that cool or what? They have a lot of other features that look awesome that I'm excited to try out on the 1st.

Well I'm being paged so I'm off to do some coloring with a little someone!

The review also includes a giveaway for any hair clip from my shop, so head on over to enter the contest which ends October 4, 2010.

New Amigurumi Snowflake decoration

Isn't this little guy adorable? I just added him to my shop yesterday, he was such fun to make! I think he would make a lovely little decoration on someones tree or he could just be a little pal to carry around.

I have also added some Christmas baby snap clip hair barrettes to my shop selling at $2.50 a pair. It's a great deal and I'm only charging $1-$2 for shipping on these barrettes. Grab them while you can!

New Friends for Halloween

I just completed some new little friends for Halloween. A cute little owl amigurumi crochet friend and a little hairy amigurumi crochet spider. Both are made with acrylic yarn and are available in my shop right now.

They are both small and fit in the palm of your hand. Makes a great gift for children or adults who love little pocket friends :) Here are a couple of pics of the little guys.

Moomee the furry amigurumi friend

I took some time off from my craftsbykeri shop but I'm now back on board. I have been adding a lot of new items. My newest item is this little furry friend called Moomee, of course the name came from my little ones imagination. He's a cute little furry amigurumi friend with big eyes and tiny little ears. He's available in my shop right now and can be made in many different colors.

Wow it's been a long time!

Well it's been about 6 months since I have written on my blog! Bad me! My little toddler keeps me running around so I just don't seem to have the time to sit and write! Although it could be I just don't manage my time good enough :)

As promised here are some pics of the wedding jewellery I completed for a bride back in August. The wedding was white, black and red. I did the jewellery for the bride, maid of honor and bridesmaid. The pieces were all different.

The first pic is of the brides two strand Swarovski pearl and Swarovski crystal necklace. The next pictures is the four strand bracelet that turned out beautifully. In the third pic you will see the classy clasp that I added.

The maid of honor had a drop necklace in black pearls and red crystals and a double strand memory wire bracelet.

The bridesmaid had a single pearl and crystal necklace with a single strand Swarovski pearl bracelet.

The earrings were all a simple drop style and I also did some small cultured freshwater pearl and Swarovski crystal pins for the brides hair. The jewellery came out wonderfully and the bride was pleased. I received some pictures from the wedding and the bride looked lovely in the jewellery.

Thanks for looking and if your in need of some jewellery please take a look at my site at http://www.crater.com

2nd Birthday

I have been extremely busy this week. First of I am doing a custom order for wedding jewelry for a bride. Pics to come soon.

Secondly it was my daughters 2nd birthday on Thursday and her party is tomorrow. We are not doing a large party just family and at home.

I really like the idea though of making your own cakes and last year I made her the stand up teddy bear cake. It was a hit so this year I wanted to do a sheep cake, she really loves sheep.

I found this tutorial on how to make fondant sheep . I have never used fondant before but just had to take on these adorable sheep. I bought the fondant and practiced first then a couple of days ago I made two to go on the cake. I also used the same idea and made this cute little English sheepdog, which is of my own design. Not bad for someone who has never used fondant in their life. I am also by no means a professional cake decorator. This is only my second cake that has been decorated so extensively. I added a fence and here is the finished cake.

I totally forgot to mention that this cake is also dairy free made from this incredible vegan chocolate cupcake recipe that I found.
