Update on Betty, Painting, and Winnings!

I was so curious about "Betty the Humming Pigeon" that I had to climb the ladder and see if the babies were still there and their condition.  Yes, there they were with little hearts a beating.  The two little black becks angled upward.  Then I figured there is not enough room in there for Betty so a few branches up there she was watching me.
I decided she need a feeder closer to her and the babies so off we went to get a humming bird feeder.
We hung it on the other side of the tree where we could watch it from the kitchen window.  Betty found it pretty fast!
Now I have a happy son (who was near devastation that the birds were dead)! 
Thank heavens for a custom order.  I then had the legitimate excuse to hide from the work outside to paint!!  YEA got it done.  Now have one more and trust me I will be using that as an excuse not to have to help sheet rock and plaster the front room!! 
I was the Lucky winner of these fabulous candy corns from Brenda at The Rusty Thimble as part of her huge July celebration.  They are wonderfully made and just fabulous.  Took a quick photo and now they are proudly displayed on my counter top upstairs.  I couldn't take a photo there for all the clutter that needs to be cleaned up!
Thank you Brenda! 
Head to her blog HERE to see what she has as her monthly giveaway!
Good luck on her new giveaway!
Enjoy your day,
Barb

Introducing Brenda of The Rusty Thimble

Introducing Brenda of The Rusty Thimble!
She is one very talented and generous person!
First in her own words read about her and her business:
1) Name of your business and how you got your name? Business name The Rusty Thimble.


2)How long have you been in business? I have been creating and selling for over 30 years, but have been under the name The Rusty Thimble for 3 years.
3)Who or what inspires you ? I get my inspiration from all sorts of places. Online browsing is so inspiring, just started using Pinterest, love to see others decor and style, and from there I just let my imagination do the work. And there are some wonderful pattern designers out there.

4)What is your creative style? primitive, country, folk art, all of these!
5)What medium do you use in creating? I sew my creations are made out of fabric, but I love to use vintage items in them, Quilts, old buttons, and lots of rusty stuff .
6)Where can we find you and your art? You can find me online here: http://therustythimble.blogspot.com/

Now she is having two giveaways that end March 31st!  First this wonderful bunny click on the photo to take you there and sign up.

Her work is fabulous (Nothing Rusty about that Thimble) and like I said she is very generous with a giveaway almost every month!
Enjoy,
