Raisin a Toast to 2018!

Happy New Year all!

So I completely disappeared! * Pats a sad blog on the back and mutters, "I'm sorry blog, I'm back now. I won't disappoint you again." **

Phew! It's a new year and thank goodness for that! I don't know about the rest of you, but for me, 2017 was a tough year. However, I'm optimistic about the here and now. Plus I hope to share some fun things to bring a smile to your face along with some more crochet patterns (yay!), inspirational tips and tricks (double yay!) and some behind the scenes info on creative process and managing your small business.

Of course, if you would like a daily dose of Ria Art World, check out the links to the right→

I post just about everyday to most of my social media platforms, so you can come by and say hi! 👋

To ease on in here, I would like to do a little recap of some of the highlights from 2017! The end of the year right before the holidays always becomes super hectic with Etsy orders and holiday shows. I love it, but I also need a serious vacay by the time Christmas rolls around!😅

Here were my best nine post from 2017! All crochet babies! 🙈

It's certainly interesting to see which pictures were the most popular among my instagram followers!

I must say that for me, my highlight posts have been my punny posts. Mondays are always hard, so I wanted to make a point to post something that would inspire a little chuckle or at the very least, a smile!

I started doing Monday Punday, of course, not all of them are true puns, but they are cute little jokes to say the least. I hear little jokes all the time and have heard certain puns for so long, that I wanted to start providing my own interpretations of them- in Ria Art World form!

It has been so much fun and has even inspired some of my own little puns!

Let's get caught up:

Halloween is so much fun, I love fall and all the decorations, so I'm certainly partial to the little jokes I came up with for October 2017.

Of course, I cannot resist a good Turkey joke in time for Thanksgiving.
