Flowers

Don't you just love fresh flowers? 

 I sure do and almost always have a fresh bouquet in my home. 

Today I decided to make some instead of buying them. 

 I think they came out pretty good for my first try. 

The blooms are made from coffee filters soaked in paints

and the stems are drinking straws!

Tea Time

I had the pleasure of hosting Tea for the Ladies of Flintrock Way yesterday afternoon.

Six ladies were able to attend and we had a grand time getting to know one another.  We have scheduled weekly saturday morning walks in the park. 

Our next neighborhood outing is a  February pizza night at Stevi B's.

I am so pleased that we are coming together as a community and am looking foward to us working side by side on projects and activities we have discussed for this year.

Cruise...Thanksgiving...Birthday...Sewing..

In early November I cruised to the Southern Caribbean

 with my three sisters and we had a great time together!

(see video on right)

I returned just in time for thanksgiving...

Then came my 50th Birthday 

which I shared with a few of my favorite friends.

Next up was my very first sewing lesson

with my new vintage sewing machine "Miss Daisy."

Can you believe I made this?

I have been resting for almost a whole day now but who knows what i'll do next...

Monday and the feeling is GOOD

I'm feeling real good today!  I had a not so nice week last week- woke up in the middle of the night last Sunday feeling sick and it went from bad to worse.  Can you believe I have'nt left the house in 8 days ...me...that's just CRAZY...ME!

When I did start to feel better I got the urge to craft.

I made some more gift tags.

I made greeting cards with Vintage images.

 

And I made cards using stamped images.

Well, i'm still in the mood so off to the basement I go!

Lady Bug Flea & More

LADY BUG Flea & More is a cute shope owned by a sweet lady named Linda.

It is located in Monroe, Georgia and I have quite a few items in her shop on consignment.

I hand stamped these ribbons before attaching them to the shopping bags...a steal at only $2.00 each.

Hand Made Chenille Pillows and Quilted pillows for Fall.

I love this vintage lamp and the shade matches it perfectly.

Christmas is just around the corner!

If this beautiful dress had been my size..it would have been my purchase of the day!

 

Cute display.

YOU ARE THE QUEEN.

If you or anyone you know is looking for a great shop

for booth rental or consignment give Linda a call!
