Not been slacking~ promise!


Hi Blog Friends,
The days just keep flying by!
I've been so busy trying to get a lot of things done for my selling booths.
I have piles of things in different stages all over the house!

I wanted to share these colonial pantry cakes I finished last night.


Can you believe they are made of fabric!!!
I found the pattern at Patternmart~ pattern by Homespun Heart Primitives.
I decorated mine a little different from the designer and love how they turned out.
Good enough to eat!! 


I've been seeing stars!
Bowl fillers that is~
Taken from a Threadbare Primitives pattern.


Dolls, birds, bees, lady bugs and more dolls!
All waiting to be completed.


Well, back to work for me.
Hope you are having a fun creative week!
Thanks for visiting!
Prim Blessings,
    Jean

Finished project:

Hi Blog Friends!

Thank you all for leaving such sweet comments on my last post.
You have no idea how much it means to me to receive so much love.
It just touches my heart that so many of you take the time to stop and comment on my posts.
Thank you!
Well, I finished the hutch last evening and think it turned out perfect for what I want to use it for.
I'll be changing my selling booth next week and want to use this as a display piece.


TaaDaa!

I was thinking first to do in black, but then in thinking about how it would look in a 5'x5' space~ 
I thought it would be to dark. I think the aged white will look fresh and open.



I even did the interior.


The top of the base cabinet has a wood grain for-mica top, so I couldn't do anything with it.  


I forgot to share this great find from the weekend too.


A 1985 Longaberger basket! From the same vendor I purchased the hutch from.
I paid $6.00 for it! 


It's in perfect condition and has a nice patina on it.



And I finished another penny mat last night.

Now I have three more to go.


Well, I'm on a roll Ladies! 
Today I have a stack of sewing waiting for me~ dolls, birds, journals, and some mail bags.
Hope you are having a great productive day in whatever you are doing.

Blessings and thanks for stopping by.
Jean

Weekend find:

Hi blog friends!
It's another beautiful day here in the valley.
Wanted to share a great find I purchased for my selling booth display this past weekend.
This small hutch!
I got it for a steel~ at $30!
I'm working on sanding painting and distressing it today and will share pics of how it turns out once done.

Bottom ~ dust was included in the price! Lol.

Top

Here's a pic of the ladder back chairs I purchase two weeks ago for a steel.
I'm working on making the template for the make do's this week.

And here is one of the penny mats finished. Loving how they are turning out!

Had to share a pic of the little critter "Bunny" I purchased from Maureen of Sweet Meadows Farm.
I'll have to purchase the pattern for making these next year. He is just so sweet!

Gotta get busy with the make overs!
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!
Blessings,
