It was a busy week last week, but I was able to get a few things finished up. I bought this old horn at the thrift store last week. It was in a bag of assorted "stuff" that I got for $2. It was in good shape, except for the finish. I took it outside and sprayed it gold.....
Added a bow and some foliage......
I got this box at the thrift store for $3. It turned out so cute!
This is one of many graters that I bought last year while at the 127 sale. I put a candle inside of it and it makes a perfect little kitchen nite lite.
This wooden box was given to me by a friend. I filled it with greenery, rusty bells and pine cones. I think it has the cabin feel, don't you?
Another thrift store box.
I'm not sure where this container came from but I put a little bear, some shiny ornies and some greenery, and Voila!
I found these little bracelets at the grocery store of all places....25 cents each. I packaged them in cute little glittery packages. Perfect for any little princess!
I am really proud of this item. This is the third tree skirt that I have made. One was a gift and the other one sold. I bought a partial bolt of these about six or seven years ago when a local Walmart was closing out their fabric department. I paid less than a dollar a panel. I put batting in it and backed it with a neutral fabric and machine/hand quilted it. I sewed buttons, trims, pompoms, etc. to give it some texture and dimension.
Well, I had better get back to it. I still have yet to download my first pattern on PatternMart. I am going to try to get to it tomorrow as well as do some work on my Etsy shop. But you know what they say.....the best laid plans.....
