Good Thursday blog friends!

It's a cloudy, cold day here in Virginia.
A good day to stay in and sew up some snowmen!

Finished up these cuties yesterday ~
pattern by The Olde Country Cupboard.


Also made my rounds yesterday to stock the selling booths. 
It tickles me to know how many customers love the things I make.
The new booth at Country Road Antiques and Flea Market is doing very well.
Yvonne, one of the owners, gets so excited to see me come in with new things.
She's like a kid in a candy shop........smile.....

I just have to share this beautiful prim S. Claus doll with you. 
I purchased him from The Button Box on Early work Mercantile.
Lynn does wonderful work. Lots of attention to details ~ I'm addicted!



Thanks for stopping by~ 
Have a great prim weekend!
     Blessings,  Jean

Been way to long~

Since I've posted.

Hi Blog friends!

First, I want to send my thoughts and prayers out to all the people on the North East Coast that were affected by hurricane Sandy.  
I've visited some of the places shown on the news in years past and my heart breaks.
May God's strength be with you in these times of tribulation. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The main reason I haven't posted much is I get so frustrated with blogger.
It takes so long for me to upload pics to the posts since blogger changed it's format.
Things will be settling down for the winter months for me, so now I can set and give blogger a little more of my time. (This post took me 1 1/2 hours to do~ ridiculous!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm still crafting up a storm! Lol.
Here's some pics of what I've been making lately.

Here's a couple of my favorite finds from over the summer.
Beautiful old wheel barrel~ found at a yard sale. I had to do a u-turn when I seen it driving down the road. I plan to fill it with pine greens and white lights for winter.


This wonderful old straw broom.

beautiful small yellow ware bowl~ love the brown band.

I plan to get serious in teaching myself to be a hooker!
purchased the frame and lots of wool strips off ebay.
Now all I need is a day of wintry snow to get started.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And last but not least, my dear friend Lecia, whom we all know, posted awhile back about my sweet little Snoopy dog being very sick.
I'm happy to say he is doing pretty well and I truly appreciate all the prayers sent up for him.
Thank you Lecia for such love and care you show me and others.
Your a true blessing.


Wishing all of you a beautiful weekend!
Thank you for stopping by~ I hope to post again soon.
Prim Blessings & hugs,
