Thanksgiving Sale....

Happy Saturday to all! I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving and it continues through the week-end and always! Catey, Marc, Amity, Dave, Miss Elle, Alex, Mom, Dand and my niece Jennifer all shared a great meal together and had a chance to really catch up on the latest. It was the first time we had been together for a meal in quite a while. Everyone commented on what a nice gathering it was. Personally, I was BLESSED to have my parents with us! They are soooo special to me. They just celebrated 60 years of marriage!! Can WE even imagine that? That alone is something to be so THANKFUL for!

Happy Thanksgiving and more pics....

Thanksgiving is almost here.....once again in the middle of my busiest time of year, I'm having folks in my house. LOL! I suppose after turkey, I can put everyone to work! Wonder who would like to do the sewing and painting? It'll be fine, I'm sure. Just need to finish up a few orders today, get the house cleaned, run to the store for last minute ingredients for a brocolli salad and make sure the turkey is ready to be cooked.

~~~~~~
 
Here's a few more pics....
Gingerbread is so prim...about 14 inches tall
 
 
I think this is one of my new favorites!!! Really nice size @22 x 5.5 inches.

 
These are actually really small...just a few inches, but sooo cute on a tree!
 
 
 Another one of my favorites! Too cute in person!!
 
~~~~~~
 
I should for now....lots to do today!
Thanks for stopping by today! I'll be back soon!

a few new things.....

I have been busy making a few new things....here's some pics

This is a big guy, over 30 inches tall and a special order for a special customer.I used a pattern from Old Homestead Barn. Love how it looks on my old shutter, but can't keep him :(

Believe it or not, this guy is pretty great in person. Over 20 inches tall and much grubbier than he looks....partially stuffed with rags for a nice heavy feel.
 
 
Nice big sign at 22(+) x 7.5 inches in size. Love the black with ivory lettering.
 
Some of these will be available on my web site soon for purchase.
 
Thanks so much for stopping by. Come back soon to see more goodies!!
 
Hugs and Blessings,
Shari

Thursday morning...

As I woke up bright and early this morning, I realized it's only 40 days until Christmas. I have started my shopping, but not my decorating. When I was a little girl, my Mom wouldn't have thought about decorating this soon for the Holiday...I find it strange that the big retailers have dictated to us that we have to hurry the Holiday in. I know it's sounds strange to some folks, but it seemed to be a whole lot more special when we didn't spend 2+ monthes seeing it everywhere! Just my two cents.....

Anyway, on to my fun finds...I was in JoAnn Fabrics a couple of weeks ago and found all these buttons for my jars. They're not old of course, but they are so colorful! And right around two dollars, the price was right!

The same day in an old junk store, I found the most interesting bag of spools...they're not old either, but they are kinda neat. I've never seen the little short ones or the taller ones. Not sure what I'm going to with them, mut I'll have them if anything comes up that needs a spool.
 
 
A few days later I ran across this set of bowls in my favorite Antique store and they just had to come home with me.  
 
I think I'll make a tray/box like this one for them to rest in.
 

Should I paint the bowls or not?? Haven't decided yet.
 
One more little thing and then I have to get to work....
A special order for a customer...I designed it especially for her. She hasn't gotten it yet and I'm a bit nervous over it. It's grungier than it looks and a bit far-fetched for my taste. She has extreme prim decor!
 
 
Thanks for stopping by today! I appreciate your time!
Hugs and Blessings until next time!

Happy Veterans Day!

 
Happy Veterans Day!
 
I had promised myself that I was going to start posting again on a regular basis, but once again it's been a month and I've hardly been on the computer at all. Daily living just gets in the way sometimes. But, I do love sharing with everyone and I do appreciate all that take the time to stop by.
 
I have a new special over at my web site....
 

 
Find it here:
 
 
While you're there, be sure and check out the new banners and embroidered pillows that I'm making.
Here's a banner that I just posted today. Love how it turned out in the black and mustard colors, but can be made in your color choice! This would be so nice hanging over your fireplace.
 
 
 
~~~~~~
 
I'm hoping to get my house and "Studio" cleaned today! I did most of the house yesterday, just need to re-organize my supplies a bit and I can get back to work. Working on lots of snowmen for a special order.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
Hugs and Blessings,
Shari
