In addition to being a food-aholic, I am known to get a little crafty now and then. My latest venture brings both worlds together, as I have been crafting drink-related goodies. These saucy little mustaches work like wine charms, (only cooler) keeping everyone's beer accounted for, while endowing your bottles with the sexy confidence that only a mustache can provide.
These are handmade, totally re-usable, and pretty much hilarious. I make them in a whole lot of colors. I even make glittered beer mustaches for those who dare. You can order them by the 6 pack, 25 pack, or custom packed into party favor packaging. I was lucky enough to be involved in the Austin Vintage Style Fest last week, where I peddled these little babies along side the handmade bags I sell on Mary Makes Pretty. If you'd like to see photos from the fest, or pictures of my mustaches in action, visit The My Saucy Mustache Facebook Page.
While my true passion is for cooking, my little crafting adventures keep extra spending money in my pocket, and a project in my hands for those precious moments of "down time" that come along now and then. When I sit down to treat myself to an episode of Star Trek or Sunny is Philly, I always have something to work on, making my TV nights feel a little less slothful. There was a time when crafting enveloped a much larger part of my life, but for now, I like it just where it is.
