A thank you for a sweet swap

Hi everybody!

Take a look at my wonderful swap goodies from Ms. Linda Parker :

~she made me a personalized stitchery - I just love it!~

(sorry pic is bad -if i turned off my flash it was blurry -if it was on it glared! ugh!)

~I love these 2 stitcheries too ~ she does such a beautiful job on them :) ~

And sweet Linda added 2 table runners to my box too (my frames were wrapped in them)

Thank you again Linda! I LOVE LOVE them all!

A thank you & some scary stuff!

Hi! I wanted to drop in & share a few things with you today.  First are some birthday goodies from a great blogging friend .... Ms. Carmen from Primcats! She made a stop over at Lil Raggedy Angie's last night, so I headed on over to visit too!  Look at the goodies she brought me for my birthday!

I just LOVE them all & feel very special that she thought of me.  Thanks again Carmen! You rock!!

I also thought I'd share my outside decorating with you today too.  I was wanting to go for more of just a "fall" theme instead of Halloween but Cody really likes the scarecrows we've made so I said "oh, well!" & got busy!  It's hard to get good pics of it all together but you get the point.

~Cody with our big scary scarecrow~

~mr.frankenstein got a makeover this year ~ he did have a foam face but it was looking bad so he got a new pumpkin head instead ~ he looks much better now! lol

(the pumpkin was a purple one i found for .25 cents & i painted it black then orange to give it the streaky look)

~i made this little ghost -actually made 3 of them ~ I just balled up some plastic grocery bags & wrapped some scrap fabric around the posts that were already in my flower beds (1 was a lil bird & one was a post w/a star-i took the star off to use the post) & tied them with some twine - they are my favorite thing outside (I think I might be board line obsessed with ghosts this year! lol)

I want to still get some pumpkins & maybe some corn stalks.  Maybe after Halloween I'll change out the scarecrows & just decorate my window boxes.  We'll have to wait & see how ambitious I am by then! lol

Hope everyone is enjoying their week!

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

crow

faux "blackened beeswax" crow

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!!
