Fall Anyone????


Hello, hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! It was very nice here, humid...but we had a great weekend. :) Well I wanted to show off my new Fall item. I made these using a pattern from Chestnut Junctions. Such a talented gal! I LOVE her patterns. :) But here is my "Mr. & Mrs. Indian" I had so much fun making these. Whatcha think? I am going to get these added to my site here pretty soon. These are being added to my tote for my next craft show. Now I just need to figure out my pricing. Am I the only one out there that has the HARDEST time deciding what to price my homemade items? Ugh....I struggle with every show. :)

It's been a while! :)




Hello, I know it has been a few days, sorry! Hehe! I had been getting ready for a craft show, it was yesterday. It was so much fun. Unfortuantly my pictures did not come out very well, but I will try and touch them up a bit and get them posted maybe tomorrow. But I LOVE doing craft shows with my dad, we have alot of fun chatting and people watching. The show went pretty well too! Oue next one is going to be Sepatember 6th I think. I need to start ALOT earlier on getting ready for this show. :)




I also wanted to share a picture of myself. I am not too happy about doing this, as I am NOT very photogenic and I HATE having my picture taken. :) But this is me, my brother and my parents.




Thanks again to ALL of my new blog friends...I am so happy that I have met you all....and hope to meet more!
