Not going to post about the weather ... not going to post about the weather...not going to post about the weather. It snowed at least 6 inches Friday night. There I said it. Let us move on.
Due to the aforementioned, Amelia and I were a bit crafty this past weekend. Thanks to a favorite blog, we did quite a few projects and a few turned out rather splendidly I think.
These were our watercolor stenciled cards (look for them in mailboxes soon!) Amelia had no problem with doing them although I did tape her stencil to the paper. I did the owls and horses with a bit of success. Now we need more stencils!
Ok...Amelia really didn't help me with these, but I have wanted to do them for a long time. We are preparing for a garage sale some nice Saturday (obviously not yesterday!) and had some books marked at fifty cents. I thought why would I go buy thrift books when I have them here! They are now one of several items I pulled from the sale bin that has been accumulating.
I only had to glue one extra thick paperback, but I love how they look! They had these in an Anthropologie ad in all shapes and sizes...great for Christmas decoration I think! Will think of other purposes shortly I am sure.
I love them on the bookshelf too...Rob not a big fan. Can't please everyone! :)
A big day for Amelia last week...
THE NASTURTIUMS BLOOMED!
A big day for Mom too...
An early birthday present! Let the creativity begin!
