Erick Meek and his turkey

I personally make little beads that resemble food. Cupcakes and cakes and pies, but they’re tiny compared to the food they’re making at Corning for the holiday season. For their monthly event 2300 degrees Homecookin’ Erik Meek of Corning Studio has created all kinds of glass food. A turkey and cranberry sauce, the jellied kind that looks like the can it was in, green beans and even the treats for Santa. Amazing…this post is going to be mostly pictures since I’m absolutely in awe of this work. So tasty and so talented!!! The event is December 17th so if you’re in the Corning area tomorrow go by and check it out. There’s music, food, drinks and glass of course. Fun for all!!

Etsy Spotlight: Wayfarer Shoes PDF Sewing Pattern Review

 

Ever dreamed of sewing your own shoes? I recently stumbled across this Wayfarer Shoes Adult PDF Sewing Pattern on Etsy, and it instantly caught my eye—not just for the sleek and casual design, but for the practicality of being able to make something so unique and wearable right from home!

This pattern is clearly laid out and beginner-friendly, with step-by-step photo instructions that make it feel more like a cozy afternoon craft session than a daunting DIY project. The design is surprisingly versatile—you can use canvas, denim, or even upcycle fabric scraps to make something truly personal. And let’s talk comfort: the finished shoes are flexible and perfect for indoor lounging or quick errands. It’s the kind of project that makes you feel a little extra crafty and a lot proud.

What I really love is that it’s a digital download, so you can get started immediately—no waiting around for shipping. Plus, it makes for a fantastic handmade gift idea (think Mother’s Day, birthdays, or even matching family sets!).

If you’re looking to stretch your sewing skills beyond clothes and bags, this is the perfect weekend project to try. It’s practical, stylish, and just quirky enough to say, “Yes, I made these myself!” .
