I've been working on.
First it's the Vintage Hankie Bunting from the Sweet Six Studio workshop. I purchased a bag full of vintage hankies for a steal, washed them, and most were in very good shape. My bedroom window needed that something extra. It's been months trying to think of something and bam! this was perfect. I had put up my Rachel Ashwell valance which is a very light shade of pink. My bedroom windows are three across or 96 inches! That's a lot of window. I LOVE how it came out. Several pictures to capture it up close.
I also finished Squirt's (aka D) birthday banner and crown! I love it. Bright colors and lots of glitter. It matches her lantern I did (see below with pom poms). Okay, my new love is pom poms :)
I have to say that was the toughest thing to capture. The pics are still not showing how beautiful it came out. I'll try again on her birthday. She kept trying to pull them down today!The shape is a flower with flower centers and chip board letters. So cute! Please don't look at my vintage WRINKLED tablecloth. I always use my vintage tablecloths on my kitchen table but never iron them.
As you can see I've ALREADY started putting up my Halloween items!

The CUTE crown I made for her out of the same scrapbook paper, pom poms :), and butterfly embellishments, and ribbons to tie around her head. A big D for her name. She is going to look so sweet on her 1st Birthday!
It was a sugar cookie day at our house since it started to cool off. In honor, we baked these yummy cookies for Halloween :) Please take one and have some tea or coffee. I've already had one but will be happy to have another with you!
We ventured outside today and little one took awhile to get used to it. She has been walking about a month now and still shaky on new ground. Check out her Daddy's hat :)
4---yes, 4 teeth have been coming in the past few weekends. Talk about a CRANKY kid! I did get a few good shots. Here is Squirt at 11.5 months old. I've been working on her crown, happy birthday banner, and invitations to match her lantern (see post below) that I did for the Sweet Six event.
Isn't this lantern sweet? I made it out of a chopped date box with colorful paper, ribbons, and pom poms. Adorable! It's for my daughter's birthday party. The theme is Berry Sweet.
This was made out of an old expresso bottle using vintage flowers, ribbons, and colored parfum tag by N.Burns.
here at the house on the unofficial end of Summer. September is a reminiscing month for me where I reflect on the past and look forward to the cooler weather. Although, here in the South we have at least 4 more weeks of high to low 80's. Nights will finally cool off. We are in the midst of very tropical air from Gustav and awaiting a dump of rain from Hannah. It's really needed here as we are in a severe drought.
I've decided to put my shops on hold for now. The Doc says I need to slow down a bit so I'll be concentrating on my crafty part of me to occupy that art passion. Learn some new techniques and enjoy my baby girl who will be 1 in a few short 6 weeks! Working FT outside the home and trying to run a shop, plus take care of my little one has depleted my health. Must do what the Doc says. I'll find out my test results by the end of the week.
I also bought my first autumn flower to start my Fall today. Isn't this a beauty?
Tomorrow starts the Sweet Six Retreat. It will be so much fun! I really need this distraction right now.
Enjoy the rest of your long weekend!
