Jewelry Box Upcycle

Remember that ugly little jewelry box I posted pics of not too long ago?

Well here is how it ended up:

And here is how I did it:

Monday Freebies! Free Vintage French Ephemera !

That’s right!  I came across some vintage craft books that had some great graphics in them.  I am SO excited to share them with you!

I meant to publish this a WEEK AGO YESTERDAY but life got in the way!  I intend to search these books and find more for you and post a few of them every Monday!  So be sure to join my blog so that I will show up in your dashboard news feeds!

My Thirty-One Surprise Package!

Not too long ago, I entered a drawing on Tiaras And Bowties and unlike usual, I actually won!  You could have knocked me over with a feather!

Here is the package I won from Thirty-One!

Hand Knitted Dish Cloths

I am SO sorry I have neglected my blog this long!  But I have been so busy working on projects (again about 4 simultaneously! lol).  I started a purse and decided to make at least 5 variations of it so it is taking awhile to get them all done.  I will blog the tutorial when they are done!  I promise!

Today I am going to share with you a knitting pattern I received from a friend decades ago that I still use today.  They are a simple and quick knitting project so they are fun to make and are easy enough for a beginning knitter who knows the basics.  It is especially fun when using variegated yarn because you don’t know what the pattern will turn out like!

My New Etsy Store!

I just opened my Etsy store and wanted to let you all know!  I am in the process of taking some things off eBay and moving them to Etsy so please check back often!
