With a high temperature estimated in Denver today of -1 (!!!!), I am dreaming of warmer things.
Iron Craft issues 1 craft challenge a week for a whole year! Last week's challenge was Cup Cozies. I am not drinking anything this week unless it's at a boiling temperature. To ease cabin fever, manfriend is trying to convince me that boiled wine is a delicacy in some parts of the world. Much to his dismay, I do not believe him.

| Boob Scarf! |
I went to work today thanks to my dear friend and neighbor, who let me catch a ride. When I left the house, I had on a fleece jacket, a coat, a hat, some gloves and a scarf over my long sleeve shirt, under which I was smuggling a hot water bottle. I have a large collection of scarves, but none as amusing as these babies from
boobsRus on
Etsy. They actually look like they might help keep mine warmer....
This is what I felt like this morning, and I only had to walk from the door to the car! I'm glad I don't have to walk to school on days like this, uphill both ways! You have to admit though, he looks warm.
I live in a drafty old house, which means she has charm and character. This, however, does bubkiss on days like today. Our poor heater is running at full steam and it's still cold in here! I only have one official door snake, the rest of the doors and windows are currently covered in blankets and sheets to keep the cold out. I'm putting "Make my own door snake" on my craft list tonight, having been inspired by Kat of
Kat Crafts (lovely tutorial
here.).
Make your own thanks to a lovely tutorial on
Craftster!

| Quilts! |
Make a quilt is on my list of '30 before 30'. I am kicking myself for not making one before now!
This little baby is a beautiful example posted by
Oh, Fransson! I just love the colors and fabric choices here. They warm my heart!
Mostly, I am spending these cold bitter days crafting under my slanket with a heating pad and hot water bottle and a glass of boiled wine. How are you keeping warm?
