SOME NEW HANDMADES...

Good evening prim pals. As promised, I am posting pictures of some handmades from yesterday's endeavors. I sewed from 8:30 a.m. to about 11:30 p.m. last night and got quite a few things done - or almost done. I ran out of glue sticks and had to finish up the last few things after work tonight. I'll give you a peek at what I took to the shop today.
First of all, I wanted to show you the above old red box with the feedsack curtain. Isn't it just the best?
I've been dying to try a doll with the key nose and I made two. This little gal has her crow and some Sweet Annie tucked in her skirt.
I'm just crazy about the old key nose!
Another little gal with a key nose went out to pick some flowers and came home with a pet mouse!
She was really careful not to get her white shoes dirty!
This big old bee has garden gloves for wings and is on a grapevine wreath. He has rusty wire antennas and would look so cute on a front door.
This picture is a little dark, but you get the idea.
The other wreath is a cat head with a slice of watermelon.
I want to thank all the gals that have signed up for our spring classes! Can't wait for the fun to begin.
Well pals, this is it for this gal tonight. I am TIRED! More handmades to show you tomorrow and then off to pick up a load of antiques after the shop closes. Have a wonderful day!
Until next time...

  4. Hi Dawn,
    Really cute prims! I've tried and I just can't get things that primitive. I guess we all have our own style and just have to enjoy the talent of others!
    Yes, the shop is open now. Saturdays 10-4 and I'm getting ready for a Spring Open house next Friday and Saturday. We had a great day last Saturday and sold 7 pieces of furniture! Today not so good. It was so beautiful out today I think everyone was in there gardens or at the parks. I've been busy and of course way behind. My mom had also been sick and in the hospital so the plate has been a little full lately!
    Only 4 more weeks of school! Then maybe I'll be able to catch up.
    Thanks for stopping by the blog! Hope all is going well in your world!
    Laurie
