It's Never Too Late...

Today I had a rare moment of silence and was able to finish my piece! Let me know what you think! I did it as a famous quote challenge piece.

Current WIP

So I've Been MIA Lately...

So what have I been up to? So many different things! I've been doing a fair share of canning lately, here is a shot of what I can pick in a day:

And I thought I planted a very small garden! Those are actually all from one plant each.

It doesn't help my to do list when I've been out of town a lot. September isn't looking any better since every weekend is booked. Wedding, Husker Game, Wedding, Wedding...

My craft room is a total disaster! I have piles and piles of things started and other things to do. Here are a stack of canvas just waiting to be worked on.

 This is what I am pushing to get done at the moment. A mini album kit for Halloween! Almost done with this one!

Here is a project littered on the floor waiting to be started:

 Yet another project piled on the floor!

 

Here is a large pile of things waiting to be finished!

 This pile is sewn, just waiting to embellish everything in the photo above!

 This last weekend when I was out and about I made it to a wonderful shed sale and picked up this awesome piece! I knew it would be perfect for my craft room. The skinny little shelves now hold my stamp pads and acrylic stamps. Too bad I don't have a spot for it in my room. It's currently sitting right in the middle!

 I also picked up these wonderful tins. Wont they look beautiful done up for Christmas!

 I really need to stay focused on one thing at a time so I can hopefully reclaim my room soon!

Note Holders

So are you looking for a way to hang up your notes and lists in a stylish way? Do you have some spare wood hanging around, paint, paper, clothes pins? Then how bout putting together some of these? I started with a board and painted it. I cut some pieces of plywood to size glued them to my board. Then I stained the piece, and once dry I mod podged paper to the plywood pieces. I also covered some clothes pins with coordinating papers. I then glued them to the plywood pieces. String it up with wire and tada!



These three that I have done are all different sizes. I just used whatever boards I had laying around in the garage. I think this blue one would look great displaying some favorite pictures!



Okay so how perfect is this one for your child's artwork? I glittered the clothes pins instead of covering them with paper.




And just a short note, I'm going to be adding some more things to ebay soon. Here are a couple of things already on there. This HUGE lot of Halloween decor items. Perfect if you're throwing a party!



Do you make spice cakes? Here is a bunch of supplies!
