My Heart

Good Sunday morning everyone! I just wanted to stop by and make a quick post this morning. I have been doing some crafting and working on home projects. I had my DH cut out another piggie, so I could do a swap with Ellen at It's A Golden's Life ~ This Time For Me. Her piggie looks just like the ones I made for my self, except larger. Sorry, no pic. Check my back posts. And here is what I traded for. She makes the cutest little cinnamon ornies and her angels are new so I had to have some! She made me alot of them. She sells them on her Etsy. You can find a link to that on her blog.



This is the free pattern from Char at the The Pickled Pepper Patch. I just love her ideas. She is such a generous person to share all of her things with us. Thanks Char!


I also wanted to share this pretty pinkeep that I bought from Tammy at The Olde Hollow Crow. She does wonderful work.


Well that's all I've got for now. I hope to be getting some stitcheries done and maybe a little more sewing, but I find that I am spending too much time on the computer doing other things! I just need to find a way to fit it all in. I hope everyone has a nice Sunday! Big Hugs! ~Beth~

My Canisters Done! And a New Friend!

Good morning everybody! I just want to do a quick post to show you my canisters......finally done....yes! Also I want to tell you about a new friend.


Well, here they are! I really like how they turned out. They are so cute! I do love them in black. These labels are just so fun and easy to use. If you're looking for a quick and easy way to prim something up these are definately the way to go! After I painted and sanded, I just brushed on a little ModPodge with a cheap little sponge brush and smoothed it out with a slightly damp cloth. I did something a little different this time, I used a satin varnish type finish on them. It seems a little shiny to me, but I had to do something knowing that I will be actually using them. Just incase something gets on them I want to be able to wipe them down. If anybody has a fav brand of finish for their projects ,please let me know what you use. I would really appreciate it! Thanks!



I want to tell you about my new friend. Her name is Nana and I found her through a forum that I belong to. She is very interested in our "prim style" and she shows her prim crafts and projects on her blog. It is so exciting to me to see the variations of prim style between our two countries. I have added her to my blog list and she joined my followers today. Please pay her blog a visit. I added a russian translator to my Google page so that I could read it, as it is all in Russian. But, it is alot of fun!

Okay, that's all I got for today. Not as short a blog as I wanted. I guess I get carried away! LOL! It's -13 outside.....yeah....this is Ohio people, not the North Pole! I just have one question.....where's your Global Warming at today? Really!

Have a great day girls! ~Beth~
