I can take a few days off now that my fall show is over. Next one will be Dec. 1-3. The pictures will show you what has been keeping me busy. I hope all you crafters out there are having good sales.

Rings and Things









I haven't posted in so long as I've been busy working on special orders and getting ready for a craft show Oct.22.


The little snowmen and pumpkin pendants, plus the two stretch rings are going to a lady in FL. I made tiny boxes for each one. The bunny and cat pincushions went to a lady in New Orleans. I still have a cute witch doll to make for her, and then I'll work on my inventory. I'm sure all you crafters are busy getting ready for fall shows.

Hugs,

Cupcakes - Faux and Real



A darling cupcake shop opened here in Maryville called KupKaties KupKakes. She makes minis now so you can try more flavors. Wonder why I gained a #???


They go perfectly with my chenille pincushions and cupcake oven mitts. Yum!

Mice Pincushions







After several weeks and many interruptions, I finally got two more mice completed. They waited for their tails for days. lol My fall craft shows will be here before I know it. Hobby Lobby already has their Christmas decorations out! Anybody else working on Christmas crafts?


Blogger won't let me comment anywhere! I've tried many times. So I just look and browse at all your pretty blogs.


Hugs,

Happy 4th of July and a Flip Flop Tree







Yesterday was my husband's birthday and we took a ride to Townsend. It's just outside of the Smoky Mountains National Park. We stopped by to see a friend who has a house on the river and watched the tubers float by for a couple of hours. I'm sure they were much cooler than us! It was 92 degrees and the water temp around 70!


Every season they collect flip flops that the floaters lose and hang them on this tree. They get so many they have to throw them away and start over each year!


Wishing you all a very Happy 4th of July!

Father's Day



Our Father's Day plans were to have a picnic in Cades Cove in the Smokey Mountains. But we had rain and were under a tornado watch until 8:00 PM. At least I was able to take my husband out for breakfast.


I had made Brownie Pops using the Wilton Brownie Pop pan to take to the picnic, but now they are all for us! Yum!

Look Who Came to Visit!

I always seem to get my pictures out of order, but you get the idea. lol

I didn't want to leave you with this image so adding a picture of three little peg girls I made. I've had these pegs in my stash for years and finally did something with them. Actually, I was going to make them into angels for Christmas ornaments. Guess I could always add some wings. I'm sooooooooo easily distracted! Do you think this little harmless garden snake wanted to come in to escape the heat? Actually, it was about 4 1/2" long. I watched as it slithered down into bushes only to find out it went next door to our neighbor's house.
