Off With Her Head

Good evening sweet blogging buddies!
Happy Hump Day to you all.

As my title says...
off with her head.
This witches ole head.

This is a wonderful pattern from
Hill Kountry Kreations. 


Sorry this pic does not do her wickedness justice.


She has a long body.


Dont you love her crooked fingers.

I have something planned in which she will be holding.
I need Bob to help with that though.
Will show yoou the end result once I am completed.


The next goodie I am working on
is this pumpkin doll.
She needs a paint bath
and some clothes.
I hope the blog police dont take down my post
for nudity. :-)

Creative Blessings To All!

Bluesy Kind Of Day


Good evening sweet friends.
Of course Monday is always a bluesy kind of day...
so let me give you a pick me up.


Now of course my sweet Ace kitty always, always
has to check out anything new we bring into the house.
Does your sweet pets do the same thing?



He got so compfy that he was sleeping...
until I tried to snap a pic.
Then I got the look.

A few weekends ago,
Bob and I came across this blue beauty.
It is a jam/ jelly cabinet.
I immediately fell in love with it
and moved out a different cabinet in our bedroom
to make room for this one.


This one will better fit my new 
master bedroom redux that I am planning.

Do you feel less bluesy now about it being Monday?

A Bluesy Kind of Blessings To All!

Loving My Second Job


Good evening sweet blogging buddies.
I have been a bad blogger lately.
Not replying back to your comments,
and not posting.
For this I must apologize.
I have been reading blogs
and commenting when I can.
Just a very busy week.

Some folks may have to take on a second job
to make ends meet.
I too have a second job....
But I 
LOVE
it.

Working all week at my real job
(as I call it)
and working at my store on weekends...
just love it!

Maybe its because I get to talk to our customers.


Then again it could be because 
my work surroudings
are prim perfect.


Maybe its because I get to re-arrange goodies
all of the time.


Or maybe all of the above.


Does anyone know what this was used for?
This a wallpaper stamp.
You would dip it paint and place on your wall.
Repeat the procees until the wall was covered.

Second Job Blessings To All!

A Few More Bed Pics


Good morning dear sweet blogging buddies.
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend.

Our trip to Cedar Point is over.
Bob got sick from the first ride he went on called
Gate Keeper.
I told him not to do it...but he did and felt like do do 
the rest of the day.
I actually felt a bit dizzy doing this boat ride with Mikalyla.
Rides are just not for us...but the grands had fun.
I was also dizzy just looking at some of those rides.
Glad it is over.

Yesterday was spent on the ground doing what we love best.
We went on a pick and bought some more goodies
for the store and shows.
I will show pics later.

But first the last of our bedroom.
This brown cupboard.
Notice I put my grandfathers chair in front of it.



I placed a blue bench at the foor board of the bed.
Added the ironstone chamberpot and a smaller hooked rug.


Finally a shot of the shelves Bob made and our door.
Just a wider view of this side.


Summertime Blessings To All!

I Am In Christmas Mode


Good evening sweet blogging friends!
Well today is my Friday.
WOOHOO

I am on vacation for the next few days.

YIPEE

We are heading down to Sandusky Ohio
to take the grands to
Cedar Pointe

NOT SO THRILLED

I hate rides, but am doing this for the grands.
Michael is too big to ride the kiddie rides.
Mikayla is too small for the big rides.
Bob and I will be the chaperones,
while my daughter is actually doing the rides.
Wish us luck...we may need it.


As my post title reads,
I am already thinking about my Christmas show...
also Harvest...
but that is another story.


What do you think about my latest jolly ole elf?


He is sporting a red green tan check scarf.


His pocket reads ~ Santa Claus Sugar Plums
with santa and his sleigh.
(sorry for the bad pic)
artist I am...photographer I aint. 

My next pic is an item we will be selling at 
the Breckenridge show in November.
Dont you just love this early child's sleigh?


Well off to play a bit of Candy Crush...
yes I am still playing this addicting game.
At level 460.

Christmas In July Blessings To All!

Mr PR Nibbles

Good evening dear sweet blogging buddies.
Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend!
We had a beautiful sunshine filled one...
with thunderstorms early this morning.
Must say it was just perfect in our neck of the woods.

Let me introduce you to

Mr. PR Nibbles


He has a twinkle in his eye
don't you think? ;-)


For my new blogging buddies.
This was my birthday present last year.
I was saving it for the bedroom redux.
Now you might be asking....
how the heck did she hang that rug?
Let me give you my secret.
I asked hubby Bob for a hammer.
He was a bit miffed that I was going to put holes in his new wall.
I assured him it would not be so bad.
All it took was 5 sewing pins along the top.
Easy peasy.


Bob made this make do candle holder
from a piece of a pie safe tin.
I love it!
Can you see the star pattern?


This is where I chose to hang my cherished gifts.
Now you might think that it is a bit off center,
however when we open the door from the hallway
it is the same distance from the moulding on the left.
It fit just perfectly here.


Lastly I placed this early leather stool underneath.
I wanted a little stool near the bed so the grands
could get into bed since it is a bit high.


Loved these rivets on all sides that holds the leather in place.

Do you like my wall scape?

Monday Night Blessings To All!
