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!

                                                                                               -Love LaRyN

100 Days.....

Everyone- it's been 100 days since the oil rig explosion and beginning of the BP oil spill that killed 11 workers- let's remeber them in the best way I can think of- until the end of all of the BP oil problems and the spill is cleaned up- I'll make a special bracelet that says 'oil spill 2010' to commemorate this and to remember the 11 workers who died in the oil rig explosion. :D remember those 11

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!

It's an interesting pattern: but of course- doable!!! I'm glad I have supportive friends! Love them and my readers! Also I was looking at my old box of string and the new ong- and the color difference is amazing! From gross and faded to bright and clean!!! The new box definitely my favorite!

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-

20 Strings Conquered!

I have conquered the 20 string 'Avatar' bracelet that was so long I decided to make it an anklet!!! Here is the picture!!!


Cupcakes of String!

Yes- I have made a bracelet with cupcakes on it- after a recent trip to 'Smallcakes' a 'cupcakery' in Olathe, KS, I was inspired to make it. So yesterday I sat down and I did! With a brown 'cake' part, pink 'frosting' and a bright red 'cherry' on top- it's adorable! And you can have one just like it for only $2!!!!!


Beautiful? Have it with any colors for the frosting, cake, and cherry!!!!! Enjoy this delicious bracelet and order away!

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!

A Few Fun Nicknames!

Here- I know some of you out there like fun nicknames to people- so for my fellow knotters- here are few nicknames for us I have seen out there!

1-   Knotheads

2-   Tangled messes (hehehe love it!)

3-   Stringheads

and finally

4-   Those with finger muscles of steel (hehehe i know I have some pretty strong fingers! haha!)

New Orders!

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!!!!!
