My week of über-productivity is complete! I finished nearly everything I set out to, and a few things I didn't, so I guess it's a win all around. The following is a tour of the products I finished this week. Many of them can be found on my etsy page and all of them will be at the summer Craftacular in Madison, WI, July 24.
Zipper Pouches
These are so multi-functional as to be difficult to classify or name properly. They measure approx 9" by 5", perfect for pens and pencils, cosmetics, toiletries, they even fit a Kindle! I use one to keep all my business finances/receipts in order and they make absolutely great unisex gifts, sure to please anyone and everyone!
Wallets
These little fellas are so fresh off the press they still NEED to be pressed! They will be pressed flat and have a handy fold put in them, a perfect fit for your back pocket. There is a big pocket for cash and 4 pockets for cards and enough style for even the fanciest of pants. For a look at one that is ready to go, check out my etsy page.
Billfolds
These sweet billfolds are also still waiting to be pressed- turns out I only had enough time to get my ironing OR a post done and well, I chose you. This was the very first product I designed, because I wanted one for myself, although I am now a total convert to the tiny pouch. The more baby stuff I have to carry around, the less of my own stuff I want to haul...
Anyway, the billfold can be used like a wallet- it has one big pocket for cash and a slightly shorter pocket for cards or anything else you like. They also make excellent checkbook covers- my husband keeps all his money, cards, AND checkbook in his. I don't have any of these on my etsy page at the moment as I've been out of stock for a while, but that will change soon!

Tiny Pouches
The tiny pouch is my latest and greatest fused plastic product, and possibly my favorite at the moment. It is the perfect size for IDs, credit cards, and some folded up cash- so totally wallet-able! It also makes a super fab business card case or change purse. I manage to cram ALL SORTS of stuff in mine. At $6 a pop, I'm thinking these babies are priced to sell, so I'm going to whip up a few more in the next few days.
Front Yard Picnic!
My mother, who's been here for a week, thus enabling Rispok Factory Week by playing with the baby 5, left for home this afternoon. No tears for once, but it's always hard to say good bye. Yesterday we stocked up on good times though with a picnic in the front yard! No easy feat as nearly all of our front yard is IN the picture above...
The last few days have brought some delightful adventures as 5 is developing his eating skills. We're doing baby-led solids, which means that we don't do any "baby food" or purees or anything (check out this book to learn more). So far it's been so easy and fun (so much less work for me, although plenty of cleanup) and 5 has loved everything he's tried- banana, sweet potato, cucumber, raw red onion (!), broccoli, cauliflower, red bell pepper, avocado, and carrots (both steamed and raw)!
As much as 5 loves/demands my undivided attention, he LOVES his Oma, and is certainly going to be missing her in the next few days. We miss you already Oma!
