New Video and Ebay Listings

Today I actually had a day where I could stay home. ALL DAY. The whole day. Well I guess the day isn't over so I hope I didn't just jinx myself. It is very rare to not have to take someone somewhere. I think the kids have enjoyed it too. I've barely even seen them, they're perfectly happy lounging in their rooms. Oh how times have changed. 
So... what have I done all day? I actually (gasp) made a crafting video. I am so rusty when it comes to making videos! It is a horrible one, but it's been shared, so there is no going back now. If you are wanting to spend 20ish minutes getting dizzy on my fast speed altered tag making, check out the video here:
 
Once I finished fiddling around with movie making, I finally took some photos of my recently finished works and got them added onto Ebay. Check out my listings HERE.

I also was able to finish some cups this last week. I had some special orders, so I worked on some new ones for my upcoming craft show at the same time. These will be added to my website later tonight.



I'm itching to get back to creating, so that's all for now!

More Antiques and I Need Help With a "What is it?"

More collections today! 
These buckets come from both my mom and I.  Who doesn't love little buckets. It's hard to imagine that this is what you used to buy your groceries in! I believe I have another one or two of these in my decor. I haven't decided what I'm going to do with these yet.

Another fun group of items are these wooden containers. The one on the left is a two sided measure. I have had it for year. I don't even remember where I got it. You can measure out two different sizes, depending on which side you scoop with. The middle piece was something my mom picked up. Just a large scoop bucket I believe. There is a hole for hanging it up. I can see it being something used in a barn a long time ago.
Now the piece on the right came from my mom's collection. I do not know what this piece is or was used for. A round cylinder of wood. But the pieces wrapped around to make the shape are different sizes.
This picture shows the pieces from the top.
Here are two more pictures of the "what is it"piece. The wood is bent in uneven portions around to make. I didn't know if it was some kind of mold? Or just a use what we have bucket? Let me know what you all think.
I hope to have some more to share soon.  A lot of my spare time has been spent cheering on these two. 2 more games and then we are on to track season!
