Favorite Junk Pieces

Hi Girls, Beth over at Olde Tyme Marketplace(Im so sorry I dont know how to add your site so that someone can just click on it from here) can anyone help? had a post to share your favorite junk piece. I said I would share a pic of mine. This is an old post office box from a small town near me. My husband bought it for $5.00 one tag sale. We had been looking for something big to hang behind the sofa, I had imagined a large advertising sign. He came home with this an it was perfect, heavy to hang but perfect. I love to use the mail slots to decorate with. Its a great conversation piece and a great eye catcher. I just love it. Gotta go to work chat at you gals later!

Finished Projects

Just a quick post, I finished these two projects this weekend. The sampler pattern I got from Homeberries

site. It made up fast and the frame came from my summer finds at tag sales. The magazine rack was also another tag sale find. It was white and I painted and aged it. Enjoy the rest of your beautiful fall Sunday!

My Day Off Projects!

Hi everyone, its already late tonight, but i wanted to post what I have been working on today as I had the day off. I started the jean shirt on Wed. night and finished it up today. I have made tons of applique shirts and sweatshirts in the past few yrs. and sold them at school. i had a few shirts left in my stock and I will try to get them stitched up for my Dec. 6th craft show. I have lots of patterns I have drawn up. I always

like to add a little something on the back of the shirt too. the sampler I did today. Leslie from My Country Home posted a site with some free samplers, Homeberries and I copied off several. I think I can stain and frame this tomorrow! the other picture is of an old window frame I bought at a tag sale. It had a pressed flower in the glass along with the towel rack. I took out the glass and added a chalkboard. I think I will add it to my craft stuff. Well its late and I need sleep!!

Neewollah is here!

Ladies, first off some help. I was browsing the post the other night and ran across a sampler with primitive sunflowers and the word sunflower underneath. Does anyone have that pattern. I spent my lunch hr. quickly looking for it. maybe someone has seen it also? We are off school for the next two days!!!!! So tomorrow I hope to get some things done. I'mpsting a few photos. Taylor in her cheerleading outfit. The Sunday paper with the highlights of the upcoming Neewollah activities this wk.
