Welcome to Marcaritaville! Check out some of the things happening here...

It's a Knitting Marathon here in Marcaritaville

For the next 26.2 hours I will be knitting - These ar the projects I am working on today! I am finishing Kevin's sweater (4 years in the making), Maddy's Cotton-Candy-Rific Slippers, and starting on my own Watermellon-Hannah. Check out my blog and see how I'm doing as the marathon progresses.

Excellent Eyeglass Holders

These little beauties came to be as a result of my first creative a-ha moment about 6 years ago. My mom was looking for something so she could stop losing her reading glasses, and have them with her all the time. She had tried those commercial looking ones that you've seen forever, but wanted something a little nicer than that - something that dressed up, something that was funky. So I created this - a necklace with ring on the bottom. Funny thing is... now I see them everywhere. Now, I'm not saying everyone is copying me... But... hmmmmmm... Stop copying me! LOL! These fast became my best selling item at MarcyMade. I kinda got sick of making them, ran out of ideas, got stuck in a rut, so I stopped making them for about a year.

Well, it was a good break! Because now they're back, baby! And I have a ton of ideas for new color combos and styles! This little pretty is heading over to the shop as we speak (just click the MarcyMade tab above). It's sterling silver balls with light olive geren freshwater pearls. Snap one up before thet're gone! (I also love to make custom glasses holders - if you need something shoot me a message!)

Here is Katie's one of a kind "I'm-a-Teen-and-I-Rock",  purple freshwater pearl and silver necklace. Where this is a one of a kind, this won't be available for purchase, but I will be making something similar which can be found tomorrow in MarcyMade.
