We have had some chilly weather down here in Florida lately. We rarely turn on the heat…well…actually, I wait until my husband is out of the house and I do kick it on for a little while when it gets super cold, but when the DH is around, he just gets too hot if we have it on. I worry about the cats getting cold at night since when we go to bed I put them in my office. So I pulled out this old comforter, and they love it. One problem, however, is that it warms up, but I usually still have a cat or two snuggling in it. It is right in the middle of the room, so you can barely walk around in there, but alas, my babies must stay comfortable, right?

Along with snuggling, this is good weather for drinking a cup of hot tea and cruising some crafting web sites:

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
