I'M STILL ALIVE!!!!

 

I HAVEN'T BEEN ON HERE LATELY.....BEEN SLAVING AWAY FOR THE CRAFT SHOW.......I'M NOT MUCH INTO MAKING "CUTESY CRAP" BUT THIS SHOW WARRANTS IT, EVEN IF I DON'T BUY IT, SOMEONE WILL. I DO THIS SHOW BECAUSE I LIVE NEARBY & I CAN GET RID OF MY INVENTORY, BUT THE PEOPLE THAT GO TO THIS SHOW LIKE "CUTESY" SO GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT......RIGHT???? IT MAY BE CUTESY, BUT IT'S IN MY PRIMITVE STYLE, SO NOT THE USUAL "CUTESY" CRAP YOU SEE AT CRAFT SHOWS, AT LEAST NOT IN MY BOOTHS. PICTURE WILL FOLLOW SHORTLY. HOPE YOU CAN MAKE IT NOV. 10 AT HILLSDALE HIGH SCHOOL ON OLD ROUTE 30-A FROM 8:30AM-5:00PM. I WILL HAVE ALOT OF REPURPOSED STUFF & ANTIQUES, QUILTS, TEXTILES, THE USUAL. IF YOU KNOW ME, YOU KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. THE TABLES WILL BE STACKED HIGH, AS USUAL.....I ALWAYS MAKE USE OF SPACE NO MATTER WHERE I AM :)  CHECK BACK FOR PICS SOON!!!!

VELVET PUMPKINS

TODAY WAS "VELVET PUMPKIN" DAY. I ALWAYS WANTED TO TRY TO MAKE THEM, SO I FINALLY GOT AROUND TO DO IT.........THEY TURNED OUT BETTER THAN I THOUGHT THEY WOULD & QUICKER.......I'M ALL ABOUT QUICK ;). IF ANYONE WANTS A QUANTITY OF THEM, LET ME KNOW (PRICES VARY). I ALSO PICKED UP A PRIMITVE WALL CUPBOARD THIS PAST WEEKEND, HEADING WAY NORTH, THE SALE WASN'T MUCH BUT ON THE WALL IN THE GARAGE I SPIED THIS PAINTED BEAUTY :) & CROWBARRED IT OFF THE WALL. IT'S FOR SALE ALSO.....I THINK.
