To Grandmother's House I Go....

I am getting ready to set up at Grandmother's House Boutique tomorrow.  This is a huge show for me. It begins on Wednesday and runs through Saturday at the Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum.  This is a huge hanger that displays WWII planes and other artifacts related to the aerospace industry.  This museum is a great place to take your kids and grandkids and this week, it is a great place to come and shop.  I have a couple of new items to show here:

I bought this spindle when I was on the 127 sale.  It stands approximately 3 feet tall.  I simply added wings and a base, crackled and embellished.  I love the way she turned out.  I have four more spindles and can't wait to get started on them.

These little raggedies are adorable!  They are from a pattern from Craftaholic Creations.  Only 13" tall, they will fit into a small cubby or a little girl's hand perfectly.  I love making raggedies, but they are pretty time consuming.  I think these will be great sellers!

My daughter, Heidi, and two of my granddaughters, Brooklynne and Addyson, came down from Cheyenne this weekend.  We try to spend October 4 together each year.  This is my daughter Brandi's birthday.  We lost her nearly six years ago to Melanoma.  This year we decided to go to the National Forest for a ride on Hub's new toy.

Well, a busy week for me.....so if you are in Denver, stop by and see me!

One show down.....10 to go!

Last week I had my first show of the fall season.  It was a great time!  My sales were good, especially since it is so early in the season.  This week I have another show.  Holly Days will be on September 25, 26 at the First Plymouth Congregational Church, corner of University and Hampden, Englewood, CO. (Email me if you need directions)

So, I am busily trying to replenish Christmas stock, and add some additional items.  Here are a few of the things I have been working on:

I bought this sled at a garage sale.  Simply added pip berries, bow and bells.

 I got these little tart pans while on our trip.  They were new.  I drilled a hole in the top and strung bakers twine, painted the snowmen faces and glued on a little bow.

More suitcases:  These are from our trip.  They are so much fun to do!  These were in tough shape so I actually had to paint the exteriors.  I sprayed with sealer and topped it off with glitter blast.

I also wanted to add a copy of my fall schedule.  If you plan to attend any of the shows, email me and I will send directions.  A couple of the shows have admissions and I have coupons for $1 off as well.

Well, my peeps, I'm off to do laundry and dishes so I had better get in gear!  Have a great week!
