?????

So to consult my favorite resource,...(the land of blog),...Does any body know if a photograph can be decoupaged with out it being ruined. I know that photos don't like water,...but Modge Podge? I have considered trying it out, but it seems almost sacrilegious to experimentally destroy a photo if any one else out there already knows the answer to this query. :):)

Thought I would try my hand at these posies that seem to be floating around out there on the idea circuit. I think I may very well be in love. I decided to put safety pins on the back since it is easier to pin a brooch in ones hair than it is to put a barrette on a blouse or purse.

Wardrobe Repurpose part IV?,or...Just Felt Like It part II?

Had these pants that I didn't want. You know the pants that you think you love when you buy them, but then you never wear them? They just don't seem to look quite right? Well this pair is one of those. They sit there un-used,...and then there is guilt. (Hate the guilt.) So I thought it was time to experiment. I unpicked the seem right up the middle, and used the lower legs as inserts to create a skirt.

Then I OF COURSE used one of my favorite things (felt) to make lots of embellishments. I used 'Liquid Stitch" to glue them all down and then tacked them here and there with thread just to be on the safe side.

Now I have a skirt that I will actually wear. (YAY!! bye bye guilt!!:)) And....it was a surprisingly fun project.

Such a Happy Surprise.......

To my delight I received a tiny little package in the mail today from my Wendy sister. And we all know that the best things come in small packages....

I was soo excited to find out that I am now the proud owner of (not one, but two) Wendy original scrabble pendants from her Shabby Nest etsy shop. (Hey Wend, don't panic,...the crown does have a bail. In my ecstatic frolicking I just didn't notice that it had popped off. I just popped it right back on. :)) I adore them both and had to immediately wear one of them.
My quarter pint who I nearly share the same birthday with also received a darling little sprinkling of pixie dust from her aunt Wendy. That is her on that tiny little hanging pillow. Isn't that adorable. (Sorry I am such a bad photographer. I hardly do any of my sisters magical little creations justice.) In my own defense I also have a poopy camera. :)


Thank You for spoiling me big sis!!! You honestly made my day!!!
