one little word 2021 | february vision board

Feb 26, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

I’m pretty sure the vision board is one of my favorite parts of One Little Word. I love the tactile nature of sitting and flipping through magazines, cutting and pasting the images down. It’s one of those activities that I don’t do often, but when I do, I berate myself for forgetting how much I…

handmade, cottagecore, and intentional living.

Feb 12, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

It’s a mystery exactly why I started knitting in high school; I simply don’t remember. The best I Can recall is that I just thought it was neat, so I gave it a try. I do remember that an aunt of mine had taught me years earlier, when I was about seven, but by the…

one little word 2021 | cultivate

Jan 29, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

I started planning my garden in September. Part of it was wanting to make sure I was ahead of the game, but most of it was pure enthusiasm. I couldn’t wait to get started, so I just did. Since then, my crafty brain has basically been split into three parts: knitting, scrapbooking, and gardening. Now…

Jan 15, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

I only just discovered the Make Nine hashtag at the end of 2020/beginning of 2021, but I was so inspired and intrigued by the posts popping up on my Instagram feed that I couldn’t resist doing my own round up. Picnic Skirt by Gertie Sews // I feel like I’ve had this skirt on my…

Jan 14, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

I’m sitting here at my kitchen peninsula (my new writing space for #momlife reasons) as I type, Finn upstairs napping, laundry running in the washing machine, dishes in the dishwasher, and dinner prep going in the oven. I stared at the blank screen of Scrivener to work on a new scene for my novel but…

december daily 2020 | highlights and reflections.

Jan 08, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

And so ends 2020, the year that we thought never would, and with it the major holiday season and by extension, December Daily. This was my first year with the project, and it was by far my biggest scrapbooking endeavor to date. I still consider myself a newbie scrapbooker, and I was hesitant, overwhelmed, and…

finding my footing in hybrid scrapbooking.

Nov 18, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

I love crafts. It’s a blanket statement because I tend to bounce around from one thing to another: knitting, quilting, cross stitch, and, most recently, watercolor. I love having options when it comes to expressing my creativity and personality, and sometimes I just want the challenge of something new or less frequently tried. But–I also…

nanowrimo 2020 | surivival kit + rewards

Oct 15, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

November is closing in on us, fellow writers. Like I mentioned previously, part of my prep for NaNoWriMo is setting myself up with a so-called “survival kit” and planning out some rewards to keep me motivated as I go along–because no matter how exciting it can be to write a whole-ass novel, it can also…

Hello there!
I’m Sonya! I like horror movies, knitting, and witchcraft.

A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @ A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @longdogyarn. I really had to reign myself in for this collection, so it was so, so hard to choose just one color for a project, but the way I said, "Ohhhhhhhh!" and could feel myself light up after opening the package means I made the perfect choice. (And I'm just such a sucker for anything inspired by Eowyn's "I am no man!")
