Our First Projects!

Now that we have the set up of our workshop complete, we can start doing the fun stuff. PROJECTS!We have two projects in the works right now. The first is a Rag Doll with a Cinderella twist. This is the first prototype in a series of Rag Dolls with a Disney Princess theme. The pattern has needed some tweaking and the dress has gone through more than a few adaptations. Trust me when I tell you, when you see the finished project you are going to want an entire set of Rag Doll Princesses for yourself.

Our next project is a crochet blanket. The crochet work on the blanket is complete, but we still have some pixie dust left to sprinkle on this one.That's right! This is going to be a Tarzan themed blanket!
Actually we are loving this one so much we think that we are going to keep it for ourselves.
If you really really like this blanket send us an email at happiestthings@gmail.com and we'll make one for you.
In the mean time you're going to have to keep thinking happy thoughts.
Check back with us soon to see these projects completed!

"You've never seen such a place" - Jiminy Cricket


Introducing the happiest things™ workshop, where happy thoughts come to life. Its been a work-in-progress for about nine months now, but it is finally ready. We're really good at making messes, but this workshop allows us to do so in an orderly fashion.
Here, anything is possible, and you don't have to worry about ever growing up!

We are really excited to start bringing you some dinglehoppers and snarfblats that we hope will bring happy thoughts to everyone who sees them.

The BERNINA activa 131 circa 2001 is sitting on this large workstation with loads of nooks'n'crannies to stuff all of our crafting supplies.

We use this 3' x 5' cutting table to layout, work on, and cut out upcoming projects.

Also set up is a workstation for the WHITE 3300 embroidery machine (purchased solely for the Disney memory card). Hopefully upgraded to a VIKING machine some day.
