I am back home from my whirlwind trip to Chicago where I had so much fun at BlogHer (more on that later). Then it was off to Philly and New Jersey to visit my best friend from college (I planned a trip to New York but all my New York friends came to me instead). […]
Party in a Tube from Lisa Falduto
When I sent out requests for Fiskateers to make and send a Happy Birthday card to Fiskars in honor of their 360th birthday, Lisa jumped at the chance. Not only did she make a card, but she made an entire party. Guess she’s a creative over-achiever.
Lisa took a mailing tube and stuffed it […]

We are excited to announce that we have just awarded Maxine the title of Fiskateer of the Year.
While we were all in South Carolina in May, we happened to catch Maxine chatting with someone about being a Fiskateer and then we asked her to elaborate about why she loves being a Fiskateer.

I have been in a frendzy of packing and forgot that I had a challenge that ended today. What was I thinking? Ending a challenge right before leaving for a Fisk-a-Fun event.
The only fair thing to do is extend the challenge.
So consider this the first challenge of Your on-line crop that begins tomorrow.
Here’s a Repost […]
