I've been making some stuffed pumpkins, but don't have any totally finished with leaves yet, I'd better hurry up while it's still fall!!

I've been making little cell phone purses.

I'm donating these to a silent auction that benefits our local humane society. The pattern is really simple and it comes printed on interfacing - you just iron it on, cut it out, fold and sew, so easy. It practically makes itself.

Next I'm going to start packaging up my faeries for the party.

Here is a link that might be useful: the pattern.....

I just finished making eight centerpieces for a group meeting that I have coming up. I used purchased colored oak and maple leaves and some apple leaves of my own that I had preserved with Glycerine and Baby's Breath also preserved with Glycerine. I also bought some loaves of bread (sorta like French bread only shorter)and dried them in my dehydrator (took a couple days), I sprayed them with Silicone and then I used raffia to tie a bow around the loaf to hold beautiful wheat that I had raised. I was really pleased with the loaf of bread ones. I added a tiny bit of green moss and some of the Baby's Breath to the bouquet of wheat. The golden bread and golden wheat and the golden Baby's Breath really looked great together!I already sent them off to the meeting site in Minneapolis or I would try to get a picture. Forgot to do that before !!

I'm painting a pilgrim bear, working on parents 40th anniversary party, trying to come up with a fun craft to teach next month at my church ladies group. Leaning toward either a magnetic advent calendar or Beaded Christmas hooks. ~Anj

Flamingo, your little cell phone purses are darling.

Sweets, I know your sign will look so nice when you get it hung up. That will be a fun place for your family.

I finished a snowman plaque from a TS sign I had sanded off. And I'm still painting the other sides of these Halloween blocks--yes, I know Halloween is over, but I want to finish them before I pack them away for a year. LOL

I made this pillow for my friend's DD's b-day on Tues. Sarah turned 7 and she loves Snowmen. She got the Lil Luvables Factory so I didn't stuff the pillow and left it open at the top. My friend then sewed it up and the hat covers the sewn up part :)
