rainbow in a cup!

i came across this picture on a blog a while ago and i just wanted to share because it's sooo cute. and i love to crochet also, so i think i'll try to make some of these for decoration. haha, and in a pretty martini glass!!

picture from eatdrinkchic.com

this is such a great DIY project for when you have those small amounts of yarn leftover from your other projects. i never know what to do with them, but now i can make these cute crochet balls! i think if you click on the caption link, there are instructions on that blog.

enjoy!

new year & comments!

i keep thinking it's january already. : ) anyone else with me on this?

i'm really excited for the new year though, because it'll bring tons of new things along with it! new designs, new creations...i'm already working on a few new invitation/stationery pieces that i'm really excited about, and a few custom designs too.

in light of the new year that's coming up, we'd like to ask any of you that stop by this page to leave a comment/email us at papersilk@gmail.com with any comments or suggestions you have for us (something you want to see in the shop, how we update you guys, etc). since we started up this summer, these would be really helpful to us. please keep them constructive! thanks!
