Good morning, my bloggie peeps! Finally getting the hang of 2015, and trying to decide what to make for my booth at a Borgata, our local artisan shop. I made some really cute bookmarks from graphics that I purchased from Sunflowerfriends.com. I have a laminator, so I printed, laminated, and put ribbons in a couple of dozen of them. Visit the site and see all of the cute things for really good prices! I also put some of my Granddaughter's hand made cards in the booth. I'll get some pictures next visit.
I wanted to show you some of the cute little bunny clothespins that I made. I made a bunch of clothespin snowmen the last couple of years and sold out. They are great for package tie-ons, ornies, or card holders. So I thought, "Could I do something for Spring?" Enter, tah dah: Bunnies
If you want your own bowlful of bunnies, they are so easy, peezy, lemon squeezy! Simply paint your clothespins white. I actually painted these with acrylic craft paint, but you could use white spray paint. I usually spray the pins, but the weather has been so yucky, that I wanted to stay indoors. I used markers for the rest. Just draw on the faces. You can probably make them cuter than mine. I hot glued a bow on for a little texture and pizzazz. So sweet! These will be great in a basket, or to attach an Easter note to your co-workers' desk. Maybe put them on a pack of bunny poop......I will post these at a later date......or maybe a peep in a plastic bag.
Just a word about the pins. You can get them at Dollar Tree, but some are a bit rough to paint on. Look for them in Walmart or the hardware store. For once, it may be worth the extra expense for the quality.
I'm off to conjure up love items today. Working on a few Valentines Day projects! I'll keep you posted!

Spring Sale!
I NEVER do this, but since I have decided not to do any spring shows, I am going to put my spring items on sale. One of my best sellers last year were these little bunny sachets.
I sold them at shows for $2.99 and they flew off the shelves. In my Etsy shop, you can buy them for $2 each, or a dozen for $20. In addition, I am giving you an additional 20% off any order of $25 or more. Just be sure that you mention SALE20 in your order comments. I will refund the difference through paypal or you can email me ahead of time with your order and I will prepare a special invoice for you. This will apply to anything on my site! Happy shopping!

Another Bunny
Well, my friends, it has been a busy week since I last posted. Of course, I cheered on Sunday as the Broncos won the AFC championship game. I can't wait for the Superbowl! Monday, I just kinda hung out, cleaned house, worked in the studio. Tuesday we had some errands to run. Wednesday, we cut a tree down at my son's house and I split the entire thing by myself (of course, we do have a log splitter)
You can see that it is bright and sunny and unseasonably warm for Colorado in January. On Thursday dh and I decided to move the firewood to the back deck. He has a couple of antique tractors, one of which has a platform built on the back for just that purpose. Long story short, I was riding on the platform with the pictured trash can, and we both flew off, me flying to the ground, head first. Good thing I have a hard head.....Nothing broken but boy do these old bones hurt today. I have to force myself to get moving.
I did finish another bunny. This one is all fabric, approx 17 inches tall. I have made her from a shaggy plush felt. She is so soft!

I've placed a hanger so that she can either sit or hang on a wall. She comes with a couple of raggedy eggs too. Check out my Etsy shop to get more info.
Well back to chores, my friends. I have homemade veggie soup in the crock pot, so my dinner is done. If only I can wait that long......
