Hello, friends! I hope everyone is doing well. I have been crocheting a lot lately. In the past week, I have mostly been crocheting bandannas. I made three bandannas and one scarf recently. I am also sharing a picture of a painted rock I made. Thank you for reading my blog! If you would like to support me and my work, please check out my Etsy shop, GreenOwlCrochet. Thank you!
Hello, dear friends! I have been fairly busy with babysitting and also caring for two baby parrots. The parrots are being weaned by my dad and me. It is a difficult job, but extremely rewarding! I have been able to do some crafting, crocheting, and writing. Approximately two weeks ago, I painted a stone. I have been crocheting up a ton of scarves. In the past month or so, I have crocheted ten scarves, plus other items like cat bedding. I will end this blog now, but stay tuned for a review of Big Twist Rave yarn. As always, thank you for reading. If you would like to support me and my work, please donate via the PayPal button or visit my Etsy shop, GreenOwlCrochet. I also accept crochet commissions. Thank you!
New Year’s Eve
The new year’s
hazy night sky
is upon us
and we think
to ourselves
what beauty
the future
could hold.
Of course
we are scared
of the many
atrocities in the
great-big world,
yet we know
we must survive.
So we give
each other
Mona Lisa smiles
and go to bed
with exhausted minds
and hopeful hearts.

What is a hobby or interest you have that other people may find odd? I do pen paling, mail art, and postal swaps, so I send and receive a lot of snail mail. Sometimes, when I tell people that I send out approximately twenty pieces of mail each week, I get some weird looks and comments. A lot of younger people I’ve met don’t even know that there is an active pen paling scene. It’s wild because I cannot imagine my life without mail. I just love this hobby so much! How about you all? By the way, you can support me by leaving me a tip on PayPal or checking out my Etsy shop. I also accept crochet commissions.
Hi there, buddies! I hope that you are all doing well. The days have mostly been cool and sunny here in New Jersey. I'm enjoying the lack of heat and also having the window open. My cat, Grace, loves "open window season", as well.
Last week, I doodled on a fake white pumpkin I bought from Amazon. It was fun! I'm not thrilled with how it came out, but I'm glad I had a good time while making it. I have more pumpkins and other gourds that I can doodle on at some point in the future.
I made six postcards while I was babysitting one night. The postcards were made in the span of maybe twenty minutes. The kiddos I babysit love to draw and color, so I figured I would join in the creative session with them. The postcard below, Chaos Inside, is my favorite postcard of the bunch.
On a whim, I painted my nails. I used a cranberry red nail polish from Ulta. My cousin gifted me the nail polish last year for the holidays. I love the way they came out. It's not bad at all for a DIY manicure.
As always, thank you so much for reading. I now accept donations via PayPal. I have an Etsy shop, Green Owl Crochet, where I sell items I make. I also accept crochet commissions. Ciao!
It has been cool and extremely rainy here in New Jersey. My pain has been excruciating, unfortunately. As a result, I have mostly been sitting in bed. I have been able to crochet a lot. I also wrote some poetry recently and I painted a rock to look like candy corn. One of the items I crocheted in the past month is a frog stuffed toy. I feel I could have done a better job with sewing the various parts on the frog stuffed toy. The sewing process is always my weak spot with crocheting stuffed toys. However, my friend loved the way the frog turned out, so I am elated. In fact, my friend even ordered one for their kiddo. As always, I appreciate your support. Please consider buying something from Green Owl Crochet. I also accept crochet commissions. I hope you all are doing well! Ciao for now.
Howdy, folks! Summer is in full swing here in New Jersey. It's mostly been hot and sunny. Although, as I write this, it's cool and raining. I have been crocheting a lot, and also making some postcards, paintings, and other fun things. The other day, I used alcohol inks to color sea shells. I used Mod Podge and bits of tissue paper to decorate rocks on another day. I recently got LASIK eye surgery, and I'm still paying off the costs of the surgery.
