Merry Christmas

Last one to decorate again this year. Time sure flies by when you are having fun, or um sewing until midnight every night trying to finish up orders to ship out in time for Christmas.


This Christmas  I am keeping it simple.


Our little tree is just the right size for our tiny family room.


This week will be filled with cooking, baking, worship, and a couple gran kids.





Happy Christmas!

Christmas Is Coming and I Have Yet To Decorate

I have not decorated my house yet for Christmas. I have been so busy with Etsy that I have not had time to breath. That's a lie I have been breathing a little. My little Etsy shop has been so blessed this year and I am looking forward to next year which is right around the corner.

To get in the Christmas spirit I have been looking at all those beautiful pictures on Pinterest and taking notes.

I just love paper crafting and was so impressed with this beautiful tree I found here during Thanksgiving week.

 
I just love this idea. You could make this out of music paper, or cards or even photos.
Look how the beautiful aged book pages have been taped on the wall and the rope outlining the tree. I love how the rope is crossed and turned up on the bottom and the picture frame at the top of the tree is so cute. This is totally doable.
I have the perfect spot for this tree in my dining room.
 
I hope to be back before Christmas
Blessings
Joanie

I Am Back and Lots of New Items on Etsy

I have been gone for a while. The most important lady in my life had colon cancer. I took a little time off this year to nurse her back to health. I am happy to say that the cancer is gone and she is going strong.

At the start of the year I opened an Etsy shop and I was surprised how well it did right off the bat. I put my shop on hold for a few months and when I returned from California I started it back up and it has been going strong ever sense.


I have added lots of Christmas items. I am still in love with webbing and can always find a fun way to use it.


Lately there has not been enough sunshine. Love the flash in my window.


Most of the items in my shop are made of burlap.

 and lots of lace
 
I hope you will visit my shop.
I have lots of unfinished projects around my house and I hope to share them with you as I work on them.
 
Blessings
