Today I'll show my latest crafting obsession, so much fun. I know I saw this on a news program some time ago. Then, a couple of weeks ago, I found this rock painted with a chicken at the post office. It was sitting on a large boulder next to the front door that is in …

5 Minute Stocking Stuffer
I was watching a football game last weekend and saw the referee with his mask on a lanyard, so he could remove it to announce a penalty call then replace it quickly. This got me thinking. It is a bit of a pain to put on a mask to go into a store, take it …
Needle and Pin Sharp Container
Isn't it always a pain to throw away a sharp needle or pin? I am sure this is one reason why I don't throw away bent pins. I keep sticking the bent ones back in the pin cushion, thinking I'll deal with it later. Wouldn't you know, the bent ones are the ones I keep …

Autumn Jubilee Another Fun Project
For this year's #autumnjubilee2020, I tried something new and I hope you have fun reading about this project.

A New Hat and Lunch Out
These days it can be a bit of a struggle to keep our spirits up. Days run into days, and I cannot keep straight if it is Monday or Thursday, LOL! Seems my quilting mojo has gone on coronacation, and it is difficult to figure out what to do. I can waste hours going down …

Making Holiday Wreaths
One of the charity projects I've done for a few years now is making wreaths for a local Meals on Wheels group for their annual silent auction. When a friend asked if I wanted all her wreath making stuff to make them this year, I said sure! She brought over a huge tub - four …
Christmas Centerpiece
Reworking the pine cone basket I made last year, I wanted to freshen it up for the Christmas season. Holidays mean a little more shine, so I covered up the foam in the middle to get it ready to spray paint. Several light coats of metallic gold were applied, turning the piece over and around …
