Rabbits, Eggs, and my Best Friend

Good Friday Blog Friends,

Snow Snow Go Away…. I’m sure there are a lot of you out there chanting the same thing!

We have about 7” on the ground and more on the way. The weatherman said to expect another 2” between today and Saturday. So I guess I’ll continue to Think Spring! and work on bunnies.

I am so please at how these cuties are turning out.

They are the Cone Flower Rabbit pattern from Hidden in the Attic.  I think I will do another coating of prim mix on them before there finished. They are darker than this picture shows, but I like my rabbits a dark brown. I just couldn’t wait to show them to you, but will show a pic once they are done.

Here’s some bunny bf in progress!

Eggs and Chick bf’s waiting patiently too!

This is my Best Friend! How sweet is he! I love my little Snoopy. He was snug in the chair last night and I could not resist getting a pic of him.  He’s my little shadow, has to be everywhere I am. He’ll be 9 yrs. old in March. The grays are really starting to show in his little face. 

I have a giveaway in the works, so be on the lookout for the big announcement. I may show you the offering, or I may just keep it a surprise! We’ll just have to wait an see. Lol!

Thank you for visiting, wishing you all a great weekend!

Stay safe and warm!

Prim Blessings, Jean

Not much happening….

Hi Blog friends,

 

This morning we woke up to  a crust of ice and expecting to get quite a snow storm this afternoon. The weatherman states we will see 5 to 10 inches of snow by tomorrow!  Now I know ya’ll are saying, poor thing…… No, really I know most of you are under feet's of snow and we here in the Valley have been very lucky so far this year. They say we are in the donut hole, where all the storms have just skirted around us, but I think this one is going to be a direct hit.

This is what it looked like here last year in January.

Yes that is a picture of our outhouse. Does anyone else out there have an outhouse? It is original to this old farmhouse of over 100 yrs. I peaked in there one time when I first moved in and got the creeps. In the summer I steer clear of it due to snakes. Couldn’t imagine ever having to use it.  

Yesterday I road over to Luray to visit some shops I’d been meaning to stop at and came across a junk shop that was going out of business. The man at the counter greeted me and said everything in the store is half price today as we are closing.

Well it looked like a bomb had gone off in the store. Things scattered everywhere and piles upon piles of things on shelves, tables, and the floor. I spent an hour looking around and just could not wrap my head around all the stuff I was seeing.  After a little rummaging all I could come up with that I really wanted was 2 zinc caps and a tin cup. I took them up to the counter figuring I’d pay two bucks for them, when the man at the counter said, Merry Christmas! I said excuse me, and he said no charge, Merry Christmas! He told me the owner of the store had passed away on Christmas Eve and he was trying to get ride of all the things in the store. I thanked him graciously and gave my condolence of his loss. He was so sweet. That’s what I love about living here in the valley, everyone is so nice and laid back. Just like all the friends I’ve made here on the blog.

Here’s another prim candle I made using a tuna fish can! I love how it turned out.

I’m working on Easter items and hope to have some things done soon. When I do I’ll share with you.

Thanks for stopping by. Stay warm and safe.

Prim Blessings,

Snow Sleet Rain, oh yuck!

Hi Everyone,

I guess you can tell by the title, we have some winter yuck here today in the valley. Just enough to make it hard to go outside.

It’s a great day to get some crafting done and boy do I need to get some things done.  I’m not sure what my problem is lately but all I seem to do is spin my wheels thinking of all the things I want to do, but just can’t seem to get to them. I know I’m not the only one with this problem.

I do have a couple of items finished I’ll share with you.

What do you think of these little dollies? I was experimenting with a drawing I did of a little dolly and this is how they turned out. Their about 5” tall and I used Llama roving for the hair. I wanted to do them with out faces, but not sure if they would look better with a face??

I made another wood display box for Valentines, filled with different prim heart sizes and one of the little dollies, then added some prim picks and greens. I am happy how this one turned out. Maybe if I added wings to the dolly it might set her off better. What a quandary? 

Stay safe and warm blog friends,

Prim Blessings,

Jean
