December Days

Ah, Christmas Time

It's time to deck those halls!

 My online shop is closed

until

January 3rd

I will have an after Christmas sale

for the New Year

New kits and inspiration will be added to the shop

I had such a good year

lots of orders

made new friends

a lot of sharing among creative types

Now, it's time to create, organize a little

and enjoy the holidays 

I want to thank all of my customers.

You all made a world of difference.

***

Just knowing others create or collect with the same passion,

makes me happy.

A Busy French Bee

How anyone can say they are bored

has always puzzled me 

 I have so many projects and ideas

all going at the same time

 If you are are into mixed media

or

journal making

I try to keep a lot of supplies in my shop

for you

Keep those hands busy! 

I always check out our antique malls

for crochet pieces.

These particular pieces were perfect for fabric books!

 You never know what you will find in my shop

 My Christmas Ornaments are in the shop

because I close my shop early in December

I hope you were inspired today!

Flea Market Days

I remember past Fall flea markets in Illinois 

***

As soon as Fall arrived

my Mother & I

would start our vintage & antique flea market shopping

The joy of the hunt

the cooler weather

the farmers emptying out attics

those were the best days

I offer many flea market deals in my shop

Much more coming this month & next month

I always close my online shop 

around the middle of December

That is why Christmas items are available now!

 Boxed like a flea market find

-just keeping it interesting-

I hope you enjoyed your visit!

Thank you for stopping by!

Faded Beauty

 On my wish list are many things

but

one that stands out

is my search for authentic mini portraits

I know they are out there but where?

If only I could paint....sigh 

I created these mini portraits

using faded fabric images

on wood pieces

(NEW IN SHOP)

***

In my search for interesting kit vessels....

I purchased this sweet shabby drawer

and

immediately filled it with petite treasures

from my studio

 this drawer sold very quickly

but

I will have another in my shop this weekend!

I created these petite stitched crosses for my shop

You can slip them in a letter, card or note

or

add them to a project

***

As always, so nice of you to stop by

and

leave a comment!
