the stuff trees are made of

When I saw this fabric online, I thought it would make fun curtains for Lil Dub's room. (Lil Dub is one of the many nicknames we have for our 5 week old little boy.) The print ended up being larger than I expected but I liked the bold graphics and the colors. Now for some black out shades behind them and we're in good shape.
I'd seen a similar example online of using fabric to make rattles and stuffies, so I embellished some remaining trees with a squirrel friend, birds and some apples.




The tree stuffies make great mini pillows and it makes me wonder how our little one, after seeing these, will draw his first tree.

our debut

We admit to hiding out these last 2 months in our crafty caves working our creative minds and fingers to the bone. All the blood, sweat and tears will culminate in our big rapturous debut, happening May 21st and 22nd at Johnstock.

We present to you...


What is up with that name? - Firstly we love the word "wandering" because it seems lighthearted, casual and fun. Secondly "ham" is after the vintage travel trailer culture where people refer to these old campers as "canned hams." And lastly we just threw "the" in there for fun.

Will the trailer (the ham) be at the show? - Sadly we need to leave the ham at home for this first outing. Expect to see her (of course it's a her as most good transportation items are) sometime in the future.

What kinds of goodies will you be selling? - Stay tuned for a post that includes preview picks.

Where else can I find out info about The Wandering Ham? - come visit us at Johnstock or find us on facebook!
