Thanks J., here's my favorite Irish toast.
"May the roof above us never fall in and may friends below, never fall out."

Cute Irish sayings, and I hope they come true for all my friends here. Here's one I like: "If you're lucky enough to be Irish, then you're lucky enough". ;o)

J, Happy St Pat's to You and All,

May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

Since we stayed home today, I played with my new toy and decorated these wooden blocks. Too late to enjoy decorating with this year--but will be ready for next year! The first picture shows the true colors, I turned the flash off and the 2nd picture is too dark--but it's late and I'm too lazy to go retake them. LOL

Oh boy, you're going to have lots of fun with that new gift! My DD loves hers! I love the Irish blocks & foresee other blocks in the future! TFS, luvs...you multi-talented lady! Jeanne S.

Luvs, those blocks are wonderful. You are having such fun with your new toy! I see a lot of wood block decor on Etsy and think its super cute to decorate with.
Of course its on my Too Long to Do List to try someday.
(And as everyone here knows, "Someday" is the 8th day in my week and my favorite. Unfortunately.)

hugs, Karen

Those are great Luvs, but now I have to go and hunt the posting to see what your new toy is.....

Hope everyone had a grand day! I had company so I didn't get here..:(
Luvs, those look great! Love the addition of the buttons. Did you poly them ?

Oh gosh, Jaybird, I'm sorry I didn't mention what I'm playing with on this post--don't want you to have to go searching through old posts! I got a Cricut cutting machine for my birthday this year so I've been experimenting to see what I can make with it. I just used scrapbooking papers and cardstock on these--but allot of people use adhesive vinyl too, so I'll probably try some of that soon too.

Kathleen, I just used Mod Podge on these for the glue and top coat. I just read where you can put multiple coats on it and can even seal it with the spray on sealer so they don't get "tacky" if stored in a hot place. I think I'd better do that since these will be in boxes in my outside storage area all summer--and since I know candles melt out there, these might get too hot too.

I think I still might like the letters "painted" on instead of the paper letters--but just sticking the letters on sure is allot faster!

Karen has shared some websites with projects that she has found while doing her nighttime surfing on the net. I'm getting lots of ideas for projects I might like to try .

Thanks for letting me share my little projects with you all. I'm hoping to do more blocks and signs--maybe some cards--but can't let it take up too much of my time since I still have lots of things I want to paint too!
