I had a problem reading in April. I didn‘t get much done. However I did get a lot done while listening to audiobooks.

-4 small travel cases
-3 convertible backpacks
-2 two backpacks (that I am never making again)
-10 book selves (Josh stoke one of the Dr. who fabric sleeves and I sent one in a swap)
-18 complete book huggers (went 2 in swaps)
-7 Book huggers that need snaps because I ran out.

I didn‘t realize I did so much till I put it all

LibrarianRyan On the ironing board. I also made about 90 glitter bookmarks that are not pictured. 5y
LiteraryinPA Whoa! These are amazing! Do you sell them or do you make them for gifts? 5y
LibrarianRyan Now on to upholstery. But I am getting close to putting my sewing machine away. What have you been doing to stay busy besides reading during this #covidvacay 5y

LibrarianRyan @LiteraryinLititz a little bit of both. One of the backpacks and one of the travel bags were purposely made for people. I have an Etsy shop but it only has huggers in it right now. Because of work rules I can‘t load anything new while I‘m being paid to stay home. 5y
LibrarianRyan Pa. Please ignore my laundry to be folded in the background. 5y
Chrissyreadit Will these go in Etsy? 😍😍😍😍 5y
LibrarianRyan @Chrissyreadit some sure. Don‘t know what yet. Green polka dots and black/purple backpack are already taken. 5y
mrp27 Wow!! 5y
Hooked_on_books Wow, they look great! You‘ve got real skill. 4y
ShelleyBooksie These are all so beautiful 4y
ShelleyBooksie The travel cases are awesome! I did not see any on your Estey shop 4y
LibrarianRyan @ShelleyBooksie they are not there. I can‘t add anything until I go back to work. It would constitute a “2nd job” that I can not work while I‘m being paid to socially distance. It‘s a weird rule but I like my job and don‘t want to lose it over an Etsy shop. 4y
kspenmoll Just love your work! 4y

I keep telling myself I am not cutting another thing out! But I know it‘s a lie. Pictured before you is my mess. I have cut out 3 convertible backpacks, 1 soft back pack with 1 to go. I think there are still 20 masks on this table to be finished and I have not even started on the patio cushions or traveler bags. Ughhhhhhhhh. At least I have audiobooks. It‘s just costing me a small fortune for the one I am currently listening to. #covidvacay

Bklover Wow! You‘re amazing!! 🧵 👏👏👏 5y

Chrissyreadit What is a convertible backpack? This is amazing! 5y
LibrarianRyan @Chrissyreadit it can be either a backpack or a cross body. I think? 5y

Just discovered this ability on Bookly! Trying to get situated in my new social distancing and working from home routine - this month I will do better at taking reading breaks!

LibrarianRyan I downloaded this but haven't really used it. Maybe during my #covidvacay i whould give it more chances. 5y
Emily92Bibliophile You should definitely give it a try! I love it! @LibrarianRyan 5y

Hey all, sorry I‘ve been gone. I‘m fine, not sick, and neither is any of my family. What I have been is busy. My #covidvacay turned into a sweatshop. Pictured above is the 163 masks I (with a little help from mom and Josh) spent the last 5 days. It doesn‘t look like much but it used up a lot of supplies that are I demand right now (no elastic to be had in 100 miles).

My back and neck hurt but my hands oh my hands. Maybe by tomorrow I‘ll be ⬇️

LibrarianRyan Able to hold a book. But right now my arthritis is so flared. I also had the boys as their mom was determined to be “essential” and had to go in this weekend. So it‘s been a little crazy. But I am so looking forward to getting back to my books. I‘ll get compleatly caught up tomorrow when I pull out the lap top. So if you tagged me and I didn‘t respond retap me because I tried to at least get those done. Have a great night and I look forward to (edited) 5y
LibrarianRyan Catching up. 5y
Trashcanman You rock Ryan. Big hugs , that's an awesome way to help. 5y

Sorry I have not been on or reading. We have a little mask factory going in my dining room.

And while I have everything out, yes I am making new book huggers and glitter bookmarks as well.

Stay well

Sharv_Sona Book huggers from like land of stories the series 5y
Sharv_Sona Cause it's in there as well 5y
LibrarianRyan @Sharv_Sona not the same thing (I think). I haven‘t read that series yet. https://www.etsy.com/shop/FranklinFixItFactory?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listi.... They are like a book Cleve but it says on your book while you read 5y
Sharv_Sona Ohh 5y
Sharv_Sona Well, anyways if you are interested in fantasy books you should read the series. 5y
Sharv_Sona They are super duper good! 5y
LibrarianRyan @Sharv_Sona thank you. That series has been on my list for a while but I just have not gotten to it yet. 5y

Not very far along in my reading. I had to go out and try to find my father some eggs. As of 5 pm we are under a “shelter in place” order probably for at least a week.

So we did some last minute errands. But I did finish my audiobook and my skull diamond painting. This thing took months. #24in48

Leftcoastzen Did you find the eggs? 5y
LibrarianRyan @Leftcoastzen yes but I could only buy 1 dozen so I had to send josh in for another. My dads on a high protein diet because of heart and diabetes. So he eats a lot of eggs in a week. 5y
audraelizabeth What size is your diamond painting? 5y
See All 6 Comments
LibrarianRyan @audraelizabeth 20“x27“ approx. Pretty big. It took me 4 months. And it is only 8 colors. It was a pain in the butt. 5y
audraelizabeth Wow. Ive only done bracelets. Im probably going to go get a couple kits tomorrow just in case. 5y
LibrarianRyan When I find ones I like on sale I pick them up. And during my #covidvacay I am happy about that. I have also bought some off brand ones from amazon for cheep. I‘ll post the one I did yesterday because it sucked. I think I still have 3 off brand ones by different companies that I can do. 5y

Today‘s #covidvacay was to finish the flint sting while listing to the tagged audiobook.

I actually started this months ago but only got 2 of 6 bags done before I had to put it away. But now it‘s finished and I still have 3 hours on my audiobook.

Bookzombie That‘s freaking adorable! 5y

Doing my best to help the economy from the confort of my couch. I actually ordered 2 pairs of shoes but these are the first delivered. Now if only it would get warm enough to wear them.
