Buy Local!

I really enjoyed putting together a by local post last week- so much in fact, that I'm making it a weekly event!  If you live in the Albany area and have an Etsy shot, let me know, and I'll make sure you featured in the coming weeks. 

Check out these amazing shops, from artisans right around the block from me!

Out with the old, in with the new...

11 months ago I started a self discovery photography project called the 365 project. Here's one in the series:










It's the same 365 project that many other photographers have tackled, and I'm proud to be included in this group. The concept is to take one picture each day for a whole year. I decided to make mine a self-portrait project which has proven to be a challenge. How many ways can you take a picture of yourself?! I decided to focus on a different aspect every day whether it was what I was wearing, who I was with, what I was doing, or how I felt. It's been amazing to see my growth not only as a photographer, but as a person getting to know myself.

It's been a lot of fun looking back and remembering all the amazing people I met, and awesome things I did this year. Now as I'm winding down on this project, I'm thinking of what other creative projects I can start besides handwarmers and cozies. I'm thinking of making one granny square/week to make a blanket, or another photography project. Any suggestions?

FriendlyBrown wish list...

In between making projects for friends, family, and customers, I always like to keep a list of patterns and ideas for items that I'd like to make for myself. My wishlist right now includes:

Lightweight scarf in tan or gray as my essential spring accessory
Slouchy hat for spring
Knitted bag for groceries
Knitted change purse
A cute spring shrug

I'll let you know what I decide to start first!
