Famouser than Famous

The Witch Fire Project has been getting a lot of press lately, and we think that's super cool. But, but, what about Marimello? Well it was only a matter of time, before we got our due. In fact, Marimello has been in the news quite a bit this week.

First the interview with Ravelry, was finally published on SuperNaturale, which lead to the post on CRAFT's blog yesterday. Whee! On other fronts, our presence at the super wonderful Craft Republic Fair, drew some attention and an observation that within a minute of talking to us, we are obviously a blogger. Whaaaaat? Is that curious gleem in our eye so noticeable?

And speaking of gleam...Naikfur just posted a cute picture on her blog. Which is especially cool, because we will be meeting Amy in person for dinner next week. We are so excited.

Take that Witch Fire. You are always welcome to tell people you knew us when.

Show Etsy Some Love

Ellen has been in the news a lot these last couple of days. Let's just say we wouldn't be sad if she'd go into retreat for a while. But whatever, we'll let her live a little bit longer if it means we can get a slot on her show. We mean ETSY on her show. Go fill out the form, and if you slip up and, say, put in your favorite blogger we won't tell.

We are beginning to love Jezebel. With this new installation of LOLVogue, they finally seem to prove their understanding of our love of crafting and our fascination with over analysis of idiosyncratic web speak.

Now if someone will just put together a LOL Craftzine blog, we can ROFL until we dies.

God How We Love the Local News

We know it's old timey to craft. But it's really only a little bit old timey; say maybe only on the public transit. Other circles we travel in think it's A-OK and totally hip to the jive, if not a little trendy. So we were happy to see this posted as news today. Offbeat crafting billed so shockingly makes us feel fresh and young again!

But the breaking new we really wanted to bring you was that Marimello wriggled in the glow of the spotlight today. We know that it's gauche to mention, but fuck it.
Check us out in Pack Rat Magazine and on Manolo. We made him blush. Ayyyy!

So shine on you wacky indie! Or indie wackos. We forget which. We'll deal with Miss Web 2.0 Manners next.
