Old Windows

Don't throw away those old windows. My latest creations is the snow scene that I painted on an old window that I had. The paint is acrylic so if I don't like it I can wash it off. I also am looking for old windows to built my cold frame to start seedlings. If you have any old windows - you know who to call.

No More Brown Paper Bags

I purchased a bag pattern kit that all you had to do was cut it out and sew it together. After it was finished, I thought it would be better if the bag was bigger so I came up with my own pattern. Then I found a pattern for a reversible bag using fat quarters. It has pockets on the outside and the inside. It is more sturdy because you have fusible fleece between the materials. I have been having fun finding different materials to make the bags. It only takes about 2 hours to put a bag together.

2010 TIME TO GET ORGANIZED

What better way to spend the New Year - Organize the Pantry. I recently found the door organizer and today we had the opportunity to hang it. I now can see what is on my shelves and I will not be buying stuff that I already have. It was amazing what I found and all the stuff with old dates...the oldest date was 2006. I had three bags of powdered sugar and I can't remember the last time I used powdered sugar. It always feels good when you clean out the cupboards and start fresh. Have a Happy New Year and 2010 is the Year to get Organized.
