Playing Catchup

I have been sooooo busy lately and I have been a terrible slacker on blog posts.  I am on my hands and knees begging forgiveness to my followers and the ones that check in on it on a regular basis.  I was shocked to see that people were actually still looking at my blog, even though I have not made a post since October.  (I am hiding my head in shame) 

I have been going to several craft shows trying to get out there to make contacts and meeting lots of new customers and friends.   Yesterday, I participated in my last craft show of the year.  Sad they are over, but ready for a reprieve and concentrate on the upcoming New Year and and getting ready to celebrate Christmas with my family. Today I thought I would sit down and share a few photos of some to the things that I have been doing.

 

I have been making Ruffle Angel wings and Little Elf Shoes. I must admit that I have become some addicted to making the elf shoes they are so much fun. 



 

 

I made these last year but have been making more of the Grubby Reindeer Ornies and this year I decided to try the coasters in silver this year instead of the gold.  I really like the way the silver turned out.

 

 

I have inventory at The Mix in Ada, Oklahoma and I have recently swapped spaces and this is some of the photos taken of my new space.  

 





I participated in Pink Friday in Tishomingo, Oklahoma.  Miranda Lambert held her grand opening of The Pink Pistol on Black Friday and she declared it Pink Friday in Tishomingo.  You know how I loooovvvvveeee Pink!!!  I had a booth rented in Creative Country for this event.  Found out 2 days before the event.  So needless to say I was doing some CRACK-A-LACKIN to get this pulled off.  Made it and all went well and I made lots of new contacts and enjoyed meeting many new friends.

 

 

In a nutshell this is what I have been doing over the last few months.   Thanks for staying with me during my blogging absence.

 

 

Stay Charmed,

Christmas in July

Lace Wrapped Glass Ornaments

Christmas Carol- Vintage Shoe

I have started Christmas early this year, to all the amazement of my close friends and family.  I am participating in CHRISTMAS IN  JULY!  The sponsor of this event is The Fruit of Her Hands Network.   

I admit that I usually don't start my Christmas crafting until after Thanksgiving and I am still shopping up till Christmas Eve.  Well not this year!    I have new ShABby ChIC Christmas Items listed on my Etsy site.  Will also be trying to add a few new pieces during the month while the Christmas in July event is going on. 

Thoughts of Christmas is not an easy task when it is July and  the temperatures in Oklahoma are soaring at or above 100 degrees.  Go check out all the vendors and join me in starting the Spirit of Christmas early this year.   See you there!!!

Stay Charmed!
