Antique Shopping

I took my camera on this shopping day with the idea of taking lots of pictures. These are some of the pictures taken at the first shop. She is a bit high. I then went to two other stores that I had never visited before. I got so wrapped up in myself I forgot the pictures so maybe another time. I am hoping if I post enough pictures maybe you will plan a visit to Michigan.

Easter Swaps


This last month I participated in two Easter swaps. One was where you filled your eggs with goodies ( candy and or embellishments) I hung the 10 eggs I received on my tree and all the goodies are beneath (except the candy it is gone!)

The other swap we made Easter eggs out of card stock 1 for each participant . Had so much fun with both!!!
Look at all that loot!!!!!!!!

Weather in Michigan on Monday April 6th


This is what I woke up to on Monday morning and if that wasn't bad enough the wet snow took down half my Lilac tree and several branches from my Red Bud tree. And I was without power for have the day. Okay ! I'm done whining.

Lottery creation

I needed to make something with "Hats" being the theme for our monthly lottery for the Yahoo Group I belong to. So this is what I came up with.

What I have been up to------


This last week I have been tearing things apart. Last summer I was on a mission---- I was buying all the watches I could find at yard sales and thrift store. I began tearing them apart last week to sell on my ETSY store.

Altered Spoons

I joined an Altered swap mingle I got carried away and made three. I sent one on without taking a picture. Hope she likes it! I hate it when I do that. I can't decide which one I should send to the next recipient should I let her pick?
