Pinterest Inspired

Saw something like this on Pinterest. All it is is a cheap ($5.00) frame and decorative paper, dry erase pen and ribbon.



Deco Mesh

I love deco mesh. This is the first year using this wonderful product. My wreaths were looking tired and worn and needed a "face lift". Here are my "new" wreaths.

The last wreath is hanging in my daughters office.

Wallet gift card

I needed a gift card holder so I came up with a wallet style gift holder. The trim is actually some old lace trim that was in my mother's stash.

Birthday Explosion Box

Last month was my granddaughter's third birthday.  I love making the explosion boxes and of course I made her one too.  Here is the box.  Inside were some money and other hidden treasures.

Decorated with butterflies and flowers.






Little pockets held treasures and money.


The turtle and frog are on wobbles
Little butterflies and flowers were glued to a strip of clear hard plastic to make it appear that the butterflies were flitting around and the flowers were waving in the breeze.

Tea Party Time

Our Sunday School ladies had a Tea Party today.  It was so lovely and very enjoyable..  If you follow my blog, I posted some items I made for the tea to include a Fascinator hat.  Here are a few pictures of the lovely tables.  A big thank you goes out to Monika for opening up her home  for the tea.





Each place setting had a little teapot with mints and also held the napkins.
The top plate was used for main dishes and the bottom plate for desserts.  We had different
flavored teas.  Everything was lovely presented and tasted wonderful.

Here is a picture of my fascinator hat.  I was surprised I won,
