Pictures and frames completed

Well we are able to check another item off the list of things to do for my daughter's big 13th birthday room make-over.

Before

After

I used the Summer in Paris cartridge. I set them up on my Gypsy, and just streched them until they fit an 8x10 frame. After that I added the crystals with the iRoc. That tool and I are becoming best friends.

 We went to Kirklands this past weekend and found these cute high heel shoes in black, clear and fuschia so we just had to get them. I will take a picture of them later. We also got her a full length black mirror from there also. I plan to cut a few things out in vinyl to put on that. Anyway, as we complete more things I will post them.

Have a wonderful day!

Two projects completed

Well I have fianlly started doing things for my daughter's room make over. I have completed two things so far. I Have changed her dryerase/cork board, and added jewles to a pillow.
For the cork/dry erase board I painted the trim black, and I painted the cork side white. Then I added a pink ribbon with a black and white ribbon down the middle. I may end up just buying a new one since the dry erase side has seen better days. I found the pillow at Hancock Fabrics, and it matched what we are doing perfectly...not to mention it was on SALE...my favorite word. I just added fuschia jewels with my iRoc...which I love.

Earings I made the last couple of weeks

I have been doing several things over the last few weeks. I am trying to re-decorate our master bath, we are re-decorating our oldest daughter's room, and I have made some jewelry. below are a few pictures of some earrings that I made. I will be posting some other pictures soon of the towels I made for the bath, and also a few of the things that i have completed for our oldest daughter's room. I also hope that I can get my Etsy store up and running soon.

 

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

No Posts lately

Well we have had the sickness run though our family...every one has had it but my oldest daughter. I think she just might be able to avoid it. I have some things to post, but I need to take pictures first. Hopefully this coming weekend I can get some things posted.
I hope you all are staying warm, and safe. Our cold weather showed up yesterday...I moved to south Texas to avoid this, and it is 28 degrees here right now. I can't complain too much though I know there are so many others out there that can't go anywhere because of snow and such. I would like a snow day (just 1 or maybe 2) so I could stay home and craft instead of go to work. Oh well....can't have it all I guess.
Have the most wonderful day...
