Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

I have recently read the Harry Potter books and actually just finished them yesterday. As I type this up, I'm watching 'The Order of the Phoenix'. So, due to this recent event- I haven't made a bracelet in around a month or two. I have literally come to a hault at my work. Ha-ha! So, I also figure it is a fairly good time to post a few new patterns I've come across. Here they are, on the first one, I'm making the Gryffindor pattern, the one with the lion on it.


From left to right: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Slytherin


I hope you like them and make them along with me.

Your friend,
LaRyN

Victory is NOT Mine!

As you know from another recent post I ran for STUCO Fundraiser/Treasurer. And today I got the news that, I lost. Apparently if you're not that popular at school- you'll never get voted in. As my sister pointed out- all 'politics' is, is a popularity contest. Think about it. It's true, isn't it? I know, right. Everyone says, 'You'll get it next year', but unless I become super awesomely popular- being a freshman will make me lose. I had great ideas- but apparently having the greatest variety of ideas related to the position- doesn't make you any better than the people who should've ran for class representative. Oh well, I'll try running for STUCO in my Sophmore year or more practically, Senior year. I don't wanna be a sore-loser on this so I'll just shake it off. Anyway! To the positive side of this post- on Monday alone- I got 11 bracelet orders!!! Anyone wanna help me make them? lol I'm so swamped!!! I'm trying my best, though! This is the busiest month of the year for me!!! BLAH! hahahahaha! I have a research paper AND all of those orders- something's telling me I'll be 1. Counting these bracelets into my 12 before Christmas and 2. Having to make the promise them into October! So- help is needed everyone! Thanks guys!

Running for STUCO

So- I'm running for STUCO for Treasurer/Fundraiser- or what I like to call 'FUNdraiser'... And one of my fundraising ideas was to sell my bracelets and give the money to STUCO for the end of the year trip. Also- I
m starting to read the Harry Potter series for the FIRST TIME and so I'm making myself a 'SLYTHERIN' bracelet- :D all smiles!

Tell me what you think and
Order away!!!

Back to School Tomorrow!

Eh- I go back to school tomorrow which means I'll probably have a lot of orders from people. Everyone is loving the bracelets! I'm never going to complain about another order coming in because I know there is another person I know who's started to make them so I'm starting to feel like iffy on it like she's going to take over my customers if she learns them enough- so NO MORE COMPLAINING LARYN! well- I better get my school stuff ready! I gotta big day tomorrow! :D I miss my friends!

Order away everyone!

GAH!!! I'M LATE!

Sorry for my broken promise there! I've been taking orders all week- actually I just got a few today and I'm filling them! I have a new goal! I'm calling it the 12 BRACELET CHALLENGE!!! I am usuing 3 different patterns- I'll upload the patterns once I get my usual computer- mom's using it in Tulsa for the week! One is the little 'M' for an m&m, another says 'MMX' or 2010 in roman numerals, and the last says 'faith.hope.love'!

Once I get the patterns you should join me in a little friendly bracelet making competition- I'm making 5 m&m bracelets, 5 'MMX' bracelets, and 3 'faith.hope.love' bracelets!

New Blogger on the Blog!

I'm letting my best friend Khloe in on all of this- so I'm going to let her post stuff too! Maybe some more stuff will come out like new items!!!!!

Joy Across my City!

There is joy across my hometown in Lenexa, KS right now- a man went missing, Larry Schnackenburg, on July 8th and we all prayed and hoped he would come back safely! He went missing at Shawnee Mission Park and he left his car, wallet, and cell phone so there was nothing really to go on. Today they found him on a walking trail and we don't know his condition except that he's alive and safe. We thank God so much tonight that he brought Larry home!

To My International Readers!

Dear International Readers-
               Lucky for you I'm posting this at around 1:14 AM in Central American Time so if you like somewhere in eastern Europe- it's around noon! I drank too much Mountain Dew- 32 ounces to be exact and not I cannot sleep- I still take orders at anytime of day though! Email your order to knotitupbracelets@gmail.com to order or comment on a current post!

CRAZY LUNATIC!!!!!

I was reading my church friend's blog and she posted to be a crazy lunatic for Jesus- so I'm sending out some crazy lunatic love out to all of my readers and followers- I love you all, I may not know you, but that doesn't matter because Jesus said to love your neighbor as yourself- and that is some crazy love! So I love you all! Say..... I'VE BEEN INSPIRED!!!  Here we go! Now I'll make it wearable love! For only $4- a pretty awesome price, you can get a set of 3 bracelets that each say one word: CRAZY, LUNATIC, and LOVE- buy them individually for $2 each! (I'd buy the set of 3 if I were you- $2 cheaper!!!)

Spread the crazy lunatic love to your friends- tell them about us! :D we love to make people happy!

Inspired

Recently, I've been inspired to share Christianity to people who haven't heard of him. It started at my church's middle school youth group when we talked about the 'Purpose Thing' or what is our purpose. Right now, my purpose is to share Jesus among my friends. The friend I currently need prayer for is Katie S. She isn't a Christian but I'm praying for her salvation, please pray for her too. So as I was thinking about her I know how she used to love it when I made things. So I want to make her a special 'Salvation Bracelet' with the colors of some Christian emblems. I have no picture of anything this time- but I'll be sure to make and post a few different kinds.

-Please pray for Katie, just Katie no other name, he'll know who you're talking about-

Keychains Now Available!

We now make keychains! Yes that's right! Any alpha pattern I have or you request can be made into a keychain- except names sorry!

My newest creation...

My newest creation is a key chain for my church's Volkswagon Thing. (yet to be put on the keychain) My church has a series called the 'Legacy Thing' (because my church is called Legacy Christian Church) and it kind of went along with the whole Volkswagon Thing thing hahaha!



Isn't it wonderful? hahahaha!

I'm so glad I have a few new orders to take care of here! I was getting bored! Thank you all who have helped me out by ordering! I will send orders anywhere within the United States- sorry, I don't do international orders- to much $$$!!!

Debating the next step.....

I'm currently debating on which pattern to make next! I'm making a bracelet right now for my friend Ellie and finishing the Avatar monster bracelet! I just got all those new colors and stuff and thought I should make a new bracelet with them- you know, for a first in my new bracelet collection! So.... I'll figure it out and let everyone know...

NEW COLORS OF FLOSS!!!!!

Yesterday I went to the store and got the GREATEST deal on string! Apparently, Joann's Fabrics has this monster pack of floss in the crosstitching area- 150 skeins for only $16.99!!!!! I worked all night getting those skeins on cardboard bobbins and my hands are sore from the string going through the creases of my fingers!!!!!

I have learned the coolest new thing!

This is a pretty cool yet simple pattern I have learned! It is possibly guarenteed to sell!


 
This is sure to be a hit! A rounded bracelet? Sure to be a favorite among friends!

Impossible..... not anymore!

This was the bracelet last night

This was a little bit ago

And this is just now
I was beginning to think that conquering this bracelet was impossible..... but it isn't! I'm just over halfway finished and it is looking perfect! I think I will finish it about Thursday- maybe even today or tomorrow! It is looking so great! Yesterday I had to run to Joann's Fabrics and pick up two more skeins of 3808 and ECRU! By the way- if you want to make an identicle bracelet out of this pattern and the same exact colors, the backround color is 3808 and the lettering is ECRU. I think I''m going to sell all patterns that require more than 10 strings (in the alphabet patterns) for about $3 considering I need to buy supplies for it and then the rest of the money goes to RaphaHouse down in Joplin. Hopefully my friends will be able to afford that! They are all mostly broke! Haha! So am I! :D Well, hopefully they know that the money is going to a very good mission that helps the girls in slavery in Cambodia.
