A New Week!

My husband has been working 2nd shift the last two weeks.  Let me just say I now have empathy for all the families who deal with this shift.  I really hate it.  Especially the 10 hr. shift.  He goes in at 3:40PM  and is there until 2AM.  He gets home, stays up for about an hour and a half, then gets up at 11:30AM or later sometimes.  So he sees our son pretty much never all week.  What a drag. Not to mention the fact that I am taking care of the kids all day long and then the only time I have time to do anything for HollyCraft is after the kids go to bed so I am up all night too...so I am getting half the sleep and doing twice the work that I do when he is on 1st shift! Thankfully he is almost done...he only has to do it this one week more and then back to 1st.
I have been doing lots of creating this past week.  Here are the new shirts I did custom for a fellow Michigander!
I think they turned out really cute...this was my first time attaching my appliques myself and selling them that way.  Usually I just sell the applique and you do what you want with them! If you see something you like that I have I can do it for you...just convo me at my Etsy shop ~ http://www.hollyernst430.etsy.com   I have more of the black and brown t-shirts in 2T and 3T. I also have some girl's sizes if you are interested.
I also have been working on some new appliques...I
made a lion~















I also tried a tiger, but I think it is also just a cute little cat.  Someone told me they look a little angry, so next time I will make them with more of a smile.
I also tried my hand at some airplanes:
I have some other requests for appliques, so if you can think of something you would like to see me try to do, comment below and let me know...I will try my hand at it!
