Hi, all, I feel kinda of silly awhile back I did a swap with Gina and I guess I totally forgot! I had to email her when I received this package to make sure it was for me.... This was such a wonderful surprise. I cant wait to get the stuff all in their places but have allot to do before then. I dont have any cats so I luv this newbie, and

the pillow will go great when the laundry room gets done! The journal I ordered from Theresa Ick its so tiny and cute. Great day thanks all

What I've been working on

This was 2 seperate thift store finds in the same day, how perfect spent $1.39 for vase $1.OO for Gigantic Sunflower. Taking to craft fair.

A Couple Lamp baskets I made, The one with the birds is real pretty lit up, the other one not liking it much.


The next item was a redo, it was an ugly shade of white with something funky
