they kinda don't listen

 



 





 

 









 



 

 

I started out this week

making a paper mache

boat

I found the pattern on ann wood handmade

in her free patterns

I had everything I needed

so I just got started

I made the boat one morning

the sails the next

 the elven king took me most of the day

on sunday

he was made from

salley mavor's book

felt wee folk

I thought he looked better

with a blank face

so I just left it like that

I really love how it turned out

 

then I started the two girls

wanting to use the same colors on both

splitting  a butterfly

for each

 I had a totally different plan

for them

but as usual

they kinda don't listen

I liked the plainness of no

background

so I just stopped after the

finishing touches

and felt happy with them both

 

im gonna have to start

hanging my art

since it's taking up my working

space

 

I did get out some this week

since it was cooler

in the mornings

 

loving:

pretty blue skies

fluffy white clouds

coffee with my houseguest

escaping to the shadowrealms

loud booming music

 

 

 

 











a place for my pink coffee pot

    After browsing through Pinterest , Instagram and

   all the wonderful blogs I follow, I got the idea to

   make a coffee station. I had found this perfect

   pink coffee maker on Amazon but knew it would

   not make my husband happy to replace our black

   coffee maker with a pink one.  Still I couldn't

   get it out of my head.

     So this is what I came up with and I LOVE IT!

 

 

 

 

I now have a use for my thrifted coffee canister.

 

 

Moved my sugar bowl and polka dot cup and added

some linens out of my stash.

 

 

 

I put my coffee cups nearby on a shelf.

 

 

And now I love making my coffee every

morning.

 

 

estate sale

I stopped at an estate sale on my way home from work and

picked up a few cute things.

A vintage table cloth and a couple of table runners....

....some crocheted potholders in pastel colors.
Just perfect for me.
