I'm seeing stars and sheep and crows!!!

Hi everybody!! I hope everyone has been enjoying the summer ~ it's almost back to school time (I can't believe it!!) Code starts school next Wednesday so we have 8 more days of sleeping in before we have to get back in the swing of things.  I'll admit I'm sad & a little happy both to see the summer end.  I LOVE the fall ~it's my favorite time of the year~ but I will miss spending the day with Code.  Oh, well!! It'll be Christmas break before we know it!! lol

Anyways ~ I've been busy trying to get a few things together for a last minute craft show my sis Angie signed up for.  She's been nice enough to let me put my stuff in her booth so I've been trying to actually get some stuff done :O).  Here's part of what I've gotten done so far:

crows on old chair legs & posts (I'm a lil obsessed with crows & sheep @ the moment~lol)


a sheep on a post :O)

star wall hanging



sorry for the bad pic ~ this is still dryin in the garage -i was "inspired" by lynn @ painting thyme needfuls ~ she used her pineapple bowl & painted it red/white/blue & put it on a board ~ well mine was already yellow & I liked it so I made this sign :O)

plain black crow to hang on your wall or door

another sheep ~ he's not on a post yet ~ think he might just get a hanger instead :)


And of course I've been making some salt dough :O)
I've been making bowl fillers & trying some new hanging ones too

Well I'm off here to finish up my batch of salt dough so I can paint them tomorrow.  I hope everyone has a beautiful week!!

A few redos finally

Hi!! I actually have a few re-dos I wanted to stop in & show you.  It's been so long since I've actually finished something ~ I'm pretty amused! (I know -I'm a big dork!! lol)


before (the lil tool box cubby & the little candle/cubby) :

after:



not sure what I'm going to put in this yet

The next redo I can't find the "before" but it was just plain wood

after



I have one more "in the works" - it's a neat big bowl that is missing one of the round feet it sits on & I've got to get another one to replace it ~ so maybe next week I'll have it to share.

Hope everyone has a great Friday! Princess will be over tomorrow to have a "pool party" with Code ~ so you know what I'll be doing most of the day!! ;O)
