News and updates

So, we've been just plain living lately, with minimal craft time for us.  We are trying to introduce some crafts to our girls, but that is hit and miss.  There are so many summer activities and DH and I are on opposite shifts, with me working traditional M-F and he working Th-M.
The girls, unfortunately, have turned their noses up at yarn crafting.  Boo hoo.  Ah well, maybe later in life they'll come to appreciate it, like I did after I had kids.  They are enjoying art and woodworking, and school, so that's awesome!  They all are on honor roll and got very good grades for 3rd grade; we are so proud!  Anyhow, I look to be posting some new items for sale in our BlackBeanCrafts shop on Etsy.  Below I have attached a couple of pieces that DH finished to sell in the shop where he works, at a whitewater rafting company/camping/adventure camp.  There are several other styles, with whitewater raft groups, kayakers, and deer and horses.  Regrettably, he took them to the shop before I got pictures of them!
Keep checking back to http://blackbeancrafts.etsy.com for updates!
The picture on the left is a deer, the picture on the right is two people in a canoe, if you can't tell.  Pictures never do them justice, they are beautiful.
