Craft Corner...!

So here is one of my crazy craft accomplishements... this was originally a fall garland, that my friend gave me,(which i had not use for) and i took it and bent it into a wreath shape. then added the fall flowers from Michaels and some red glass beads as berries. the Bow was a task in itself... i could decided between polka dots (which are my FaV) and the sparkly sheer. so i went with both. and then added a few more strands for flavor. i was excited when it actually looked good. Yeah projects....

Here is project "Rescue". This awesome chair was in my neighbors garbage can. (right on top...luckly) and they put their can out a day early so i saw it sitting there on top... so when i went out to go get my mail, i casually walked by and examened the chair. Structurely fine, not breaks, just nasty with areas of mold and the finish (originally light pine color) was chipped and splintered...... So late that night, i went and snagged it. Dumpster Diving is a "guilty pleasure"! But i had the chair for a few weeks in my backyard... then sanded it and spray painted it.... AND it is like new. and Awesome!!! Hyrum loves to read books and sit and watch tv in it. Thank you neighbors !

The Red one says "Believe"with a fancy Scrolly "B" the the other says "Give Thanks"

The other night i was able to go to my Sis-in-law Carley's best friends Malissa Homemaking Night. and i told her to "sign me up for everthing"!!! it was holiday crafts and i have none. and two of the projects didnt get finished so you get to see those on a later post. but here is a H for Hyrum, and the glass blocks for Halloween time and Thanksgiving and Christmas. Those were awesome and took like 5 mins. they have Vinyl lettering. that lettering is just awesome and totally perfessional looking! GO CRAFTS!!! and Malissa for signing me up, and for Carley for telling me about it. I had a Blast, met some awesome ladies.
