2 New Creations

Here it is the end of the 1st month of a new year. This month has been exciting, stressful, and a little personal growth taken place. I have been starting each day expecting great things to happen. This is a short post. I have managed to share with you a couple of photos of two of my new creations. Here is a  new Spring cloche . Isn't the bird so sweet? The sign inside says Sweet Life. Good words to remember.

I was searching blogs one day and came upon Neelz Expressionz. Very creative, fun to read and interesting. He has some neat tutorials and  I took some time to try  making paper flowers. Yeah! I had just bought some new double sided scrapbook paper.Great time to use it.Here are my three flowers.

I thought they turned out good for my first try at making paper flowers.Be sure and take a visit over to see Neelz.
Well, I did tell you this was a short post. Just thought I would share a little creativity. Hope your week is great.

Fabric,Felt,Jewelry and Ribbon

Do you have a friend,sister or creative soul you share time with to be creative.? I  do, my  friend Mona.If you have a few minutes she would love a visit.  We share creative thoughts, tools and some of our stash. Mona has this new book, Inspired to Sew by Bari J. Yes, she let me borrow the book. 

Bari shares several different skills & techniques . I think it is a book worth adding to your creative/crafting library. I like the Flower Brooch project. So off to look through my stash of fabric,felt jewelry, and ribbon.With my needle and thread in hand I started to create. This is the one I started for my friend M.

Below is a look at the final results. What do you think? I like the finished product.

I am planning on making some more Brooches after the holidays some with Spring colors. It is project that doesn't take to long and you probably have the tools and materials on hand.. It's a great gift idea. Hope this next week is a blessing  for everyone . I hear the nice crackling fire calling me.

A Pumpkin Search

This past Saturday we had a relaxing time  not to many places to go or meetings to attend. So we decided to go on a pumpkin search at Gnismer Farms.

Trailer  rides,Scarecrow building,Corn stalks and pumpkins .

 

The weather was great. Now on to our pumpkin search.

 

 

 

 

These are the two we chose. Now on to the house to create a  Fall display with them and later for carving.

 Hope you enjoyed our visit to the farm.  I loved to hear about your fall decorating. Wish you a great week.

Creating for a Show!

I have been  preparing for a show in  Sept. This post will be a short one with photos. I would like to share some of my houses that I created. I am also getting geared up to sell my creations on my etsy shop soon. On to my houses:

Before my creative flow began this is how the houses looked.

This is what my created flow designed.

The form is already built and I just let my create thoughts flow. I have been thinking on designing my own form and then decorating. Well, I better get busy, more on the agenda to create. Hope you have a great day and week.
