Hi! I’m Heidi Gustad, and I’m a yarn crafts designer and blogger, partial to primary colors, vintage style and most needlecrafts. Along with two designer friends, I co-host The Very Serious Crafts Podcast. My first book is set to be released in the fall of 2020.

What's this? That's right! There's a new tutorial on the Hands Occupied Blog today! 🌈 Head to the link in bio to learn how to do finishing in latch hook projects with square corners. This is a work-as-you-go method that helps you save time during the finishing process, AND the tutorial gives you a peek at one of my latch hook book projects! #handsoccupied #latchhook

Finding focus has been challenging lately (can’t imagine why 🤪), so I've decided to give a new paper planner a try! You may know I'm not the biggest paper crafter/scrapbooker person. However, I’m hoping a paper planner will get me out of my phone, help fight routine fatigue, and give me an excuse to get in to stickers. 🌈🤓

Is anybody out there into planners or journaling too? I'd love to hear your tips - where are the cutest stickers that aren't a million dollars? 😂

A little birdie told me they were missing vintage-meets-handmade outfit posts, so I’m brining them back! ❤️ This has been my go-to late spring outfit for when I want to feel like a dressed up human, yet comfortably work on the couch all afternoon. ☺️ #handmadewardrobe .
