With St. Patty's Day coming up on March 17th, I figured why not make something for kitty? I hand made this shamrock and sprayed it with catnip. There are so many fun uses for felt. You could make these for your grandchild or kids. Or you could leave them one sided (not stuffed) and hang them as a garland of shamrocks. 

I'd love to hear what you do for St. Patty's Day crafting! Leave a comment here.

If you're like me, you love making crafts. It's something you'd do even if no one ever saw a single one. The process is joyful even if there's no reward, monetary gain or applause from friends and family. But then the dreamer side comes in...what if...I could make a living doing just my crafts?...I could sell like the big guys on Etsy?...I could really feel like my crafts were noticed and cherished?

If you've ever felt like this, I'd love to hear from you. How are you doing on sites like Etsy? Are you on Twitter marketing your items? Do you prefer Facebook? What's worked for you? What hasn't worked? Leave a comment here and link to your shop or work. I will definitely check you out so I can follow you.

To the left here is the NY style cheesecake catnip toy I made last night. I Tweeted it out to the world last night after I listed it on Etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop/CatnipToyworks What do you think of it? I'd love your thoughts.
