What I've done....

Lately I have been busy getting ready for a craft show. That was last weekend and am I ever tired. I shared a booth with some fabulous Mary Kaye ladies and LOVE them. I made a bunch of bags from dogfood bags thanx to some inspiration from Tinker Verve, some domino necklaces and did my nail painting. I did the best at that, but I did manage to sell one bag and a few domino necklaces. I mostly wanted to get my name out there for the nail painting. Now I need to make more crafts and practice new patterns for the nails. Gotta love this life!

My phone holder


I decided I was tired of sticking my cell phone in my bra strap and end up with it sliding down and giving me a rectangled shaped breast. What to do? I created these little  pocket holders and embelished them with some flowers I had kicking around. I just measured my phone leaving a little extra to sew the seams. Then after turning it right side out, I cut a piece of muslin, folded it over and hot glued it together, then glued it to the back of the pocket and glued a pin onto it. Then on the front I hot glued my flower. I LOVE it and it I can hear it when it rings!

I've been a bit busy

Today we had a family reunion on my hubby's side of the family and our 2nd son and I got to do face painting. Were we ever busy! Luckily we were in the shade, it's been so stinkin' HOT! I got really talented at painting pink skulls with blue bows, here's a pic of mine but the paints wearing off. Our theme was Pirates! We also have a Chinese Auction so I donated some domino necklaces and some little bird necklace pendants. Unfortunately I didn't win anything. Oh well. It was a success!


I also did my nails, here's a pic.

I forgot to post back around the 4th of July the flower I wore that day. It was SO CUTE!!!

Well, try to stay cool and have a great weekend.

My Husbands Fathers Day Gift


We are super short on money right now and I wanted to do something fun for my sweet hubby so I came up with this. I drew PAPA about the size and thickness I wanted, cut it out on my scroll saw, sanded it, then painted it a chocolate brown color. I printed off some photo's of our granddaughter Addy and decoupaged the pics on it. I had to spray a clear varnish on it so the ink wouldn't bleed  and then cut out the pics. I had to hold the photo's up to the light to know where to place it so as not to cut off faces. It was also hard to hide it when he came into my craft room twice to see what I was working on. Luckily I have a few projects going so I could say I was working on them., which I was while the pics or wood was drying. Our Addy calls him Papa instead of grandpa, she has 3 of them. He was very pleased with it. I also gave him a manicure and a hand massage.
