Renovation

Hi Everybody,

After over three years in business, I'm finally biting the bullet and renovating our work room. My employees are so awesome they deserve a pleasant area in which to work. (My customers are awesome too!) Once complete, that should be it for a long time! Next week I'll post the after photo, so stay tuned! Happy, happy week!

Alive and Well

Hi Everybody,

In an effort to get better about promoting our once monthly events I vowed to blog about it, so here we are! Live plants all in hand crafted containers are on sale at 20% off our already low prices! June 13, 2015 from 10-2. As always, fun and refreshments are FREE! Happy, happy Memorial Weekend!!!

Jeans Placemats

Hi Everybody,

A customer and friend gave me several projects to make from her husbands clothes. One of which was placemats made from his jeans. Not having lost a spouse, I cannot know what that feels like, but I do know from other deaths that just simply getting rid of their stuff is difficult. Creating usable items from some of their possessions is not only a reminder of the love you had, but comforting having something of theirs near. It has helped her with the healing process and she feels after several years of grieving has rounded the corner. We have done this many times for people and when presented, all are teary eyed, emotional and grateful. Next week, using old wooden spools. Happy, happy week'

New Cush Covers

Hi Everybody,

Today's post is about the recovering of my outdoor furniture cushions. In desperate need of a face lift my cushions are now in style. Pictured are the before and after. Clearly an improvement. Happy, happy week and all the mothers!

To the Beat of My Own Drum

Hi Everybody,

The bird houses from last week are both gone! I'm finishing a zipper bird house today and was able to complete the drum footstool, the focus of today's post. My grandson came into the house Sunday and asked "what's that?" I told him it is a drum footstool. He responded, "I don't like it." He spent most of the rest of the day sitting on it! Next week watch for a jeans remodel! Happy, happy week!
