This week
I’m going to bring you a chat with Heidi Kenney,
the crafty woman behind the website and online
shop My Paper
Crane.
She’s a hip 28-year-old, Baltimore-area
artist making impressive plush creations.
She’s a mother and maker who creates
whatever she wants out of fabric.
A mix of attitude and humor, Heidi’s work is as
impressive as it in funny. Not everyone can
appreciate a smiling tampon doll, but she’s
selling them like hotcakes. Aside from the buzz
she’s created in online craft circles, Heidi
was recently featured in a New York Times
Magazine article about artists and crafters
selling their work online.
Oh look, she spins, too! Here are some
of Heidi's one-of-a-kind yarns.

blog and shop for fantastic

This week's project is a recipe from Heidi. This recipe calls for a wild sense of humor and a creative appreciation of toilet jokes. (Heidi makes toilets, too.)
