Hello! Welcome to my Blog :)

Hi blog world! 

My name is Brittany! I am a new Wife, a doggy and kitty mama, and I LOVE to craft! I remember being a little kid visiting my Aunt DD and we would just sit and craft all day! So I know I get that gene from her:) I am a Hair Stylist, so naturally I love making hair accessories! Mostly trial and error is how I work, and normally I don't know where I am going to end up when I start crafting but somehow it all seems to work out! A couple of months ago my Aunt DD taught me how to crochet.......... INSTANT ADDICT! I started my first scarf that night and finished the next day!!! I have been "hooked" ever sense, haha sorry, had to say it :) anyways I love working from patterns but mostly because it gives me my own ideas! like I said, I am surprised half of the things I do turn out looking good:) I am now loving the fact that I am crafty Aunt B to my Niece because I cherish all of my memories with my Aunt! Sooooooo..... now to "Olive You", I created Olive You because I have gotten so may compliments on the things I have crafted and figured, why not find a way to make a little extra money these days? plus I love sharing my stuff with other people, and I love the idea of all things bought being homemade! I got the name from a silly inside joke/story between my husband and I. when we were first dating I started mouthing the words "Olive Oil" to him, he couldn't figure out what I was trying to say and probably why I was so weird:) So I exclaimed "OLIVE OIL...... ya know, its supposed to look like I am saying I Love You!!!"....... his respose was, "uhm its olive JUICE, ya weirdo!" so ever sense then we tell eachother "olive oil" and that was that! but I figured "Olive Oil" wasnt exactly the best name for a crafty business/blog so I decided to go with "Olive You". well enough blabbing! My blog is still a work in progress while I try and figure out what the heck I am doing haha! Thank you for taking time out of your day to read my rambling!

Olive You, and I hope you enjoy my stuff:)
