I have missed you my bloggy friends!!! Life has kept me busy but hopefully I will be posting more! Fall is my favorite time of year and I love to share things with all you cute people! I think I shared a looong time ago that I work with children with Autism in my day job. This year we have had quite a few darling 3 year olds start our program who are very involved and seeing that I am not getting any younger, (we won't go there!) They are kicking my butt!!!
BUT! I love them so much, they are the cutest.... and rascally.... oh yeah!!!!
Above are a couple of vignettes around my house, I had to take them outside to photograph them because it is so gloomy. I got the scale at the last flea and I love it's rusty self!!!
My friend Lorraine and I decided to do a one on one swap and I am sharing what she sent me...I am a lucky girl! We swapped decorated matchboxes- (halloween of course) and filled them with treasures to create with....Look how cute the box is:
Here are the fun treasures...some darling mini pumpkins, a decorated clothespin, wonderful sparkly orange tinsel, a handmade flower...... and more......
We also created 4 handmade items (neither of us stopped at 4) Here is my booty:
The little witch in the middle is made from an altoid tin and her apothecary shop is inside... I love that little thread spool with the crow! Here is a picture of the inside of the tin...sorry it's blurry!
I bought some fun collage sheets from Sandy of
One Crabapple on etsy...I love her stuff! And some pretty goodies from Julie of the adventures of bluegirl so hopefully I will have some creations to share soon!
Hope your fall is starting out wonderfully! karen......
I wanted to show you what I sent Lorraine for our little one on one swap... This was fun! Since it was one on one, there was no pressure...just fun!
Here are a couple of little black and white bowls- striped and polka dotted with some hand stamped candles wrapped in pumpkiny goodness....
A little fabric pin made with a vintage button.....
The box and goodies inside...another pin made with a vintage image and covered in envirotex, vintage cupcake toppers.. fabric yo-yos and an orange vintage millinery flower....
And a boo candle.....
