I found this gorgeous frame and found that it matched a few others I have in my apartment which contain lovely crow pictures painted by my dear friend Laurie, so rather than recycle it, I mentioned to Laurie how great it would look with another of her crows in it. Of course, she was kind enough to whip one up for me and here they are, one without a painting and the other with.
This is a piece I did myself of a crow on burlap in a shabby chic frame - it's in my Boutique, for sale.
It's now in my Boutique for sale.
I decided to turn all my jewelry into grab bags in the hope that I could finally sell it all. It has been a few years since I did all the craft shows where things like this sold very well, but now not so much. In each bag I have a minimum of seven items which I am selling for $5 a bag. They are now in my Boutique for sale and also in my local grocery store, City Meat Market and they have been doing very well there. They are so good to me. They also are a great little family grocery store which sells locally grown produce as well as organic meat, etc.
I worked on this delightful mailbox. It needed a new coat of paint, another easy fix.
I bought this old wagon, I think it was one of the original 'Little Red Wagons'. It certainly has taken a beating over the years but it is still in very good condition and strong....
And that's about it. At the moment I am working on a little table/plant stand, whatever, it can be used for either and am filling holes in the top and sanding it. When that is done, I will decide what colour I will paint it and whether I will shabby chic it.....
As usual, I am leaving you with a couple of photos of my darling grandkids whom I hope to go and visit in a few weeks, now that the snow is beginning to go away, although someone told me today that it is supposed to snow again either tomorrow or Saturday, enough already!!!! LOL
Katherine, the birthday girl, just turned two....
Big brother Rhys, mischievous as usual...
Birthday girl opening presents from Grandma (me)....
And, darling Rhys again - can't wait to see these darlings......
Well folks, I hope that wherever you are, you are well and happy. Until the next time, take care of yourselves.
Hugs,
