Braggin' About More New Friends

I got 2 more new Friends Tags done.

See the teabag rose on this one?
So fun.

For those who live in my area,
I'm teaching classes now on how to
make some of my fun treasures.

Email me if you want info.

Thanks to Jan for hosting the Bragfest for us each week.

Oh, Jan, I did finally get my art table cleaned off.
All shiny white with new paper.
But, I forgot to take a picture of it!
Maybe next week, IF it is still clean.
(I would not hold my breath if i were you) =)

New Friends for You

Finished some new Friends tags.
Felt so good to create again after 2 weeks
of too much work!!!
(bookkeeping, bah humbug!!)

How about going symmetrical for a change,
and adding some tea bag roses.

Old lace, buttons and a rusty key.
Oh so fun!!

And here is another display to take to the Tea on Sunday.
I had this great idea!
I'm doing my displays is suitcases.
I'll pack my treasures in them,
then set up the display right in the suitcase.
I'm feeling very clever today. =)

Thanks for coming by.
Hope you have a terrific weekend.

Tuesday Taggers

A new party for me.
Did someone say Tags??

Here is my prize from Cindy at
I Owe It All To Him
If you have not been over to visit her blog,
it is a must see.
She is an amazing writer, with a deep love for our Lord.
You will be inspired.

OK. Now some of my work.
My Friends Tags.
Been making these for awhile,
and they are really fun to make.
Love old music paper, keys, buttons,
and this saying.

#1

all similar, but different.

And here is a sweet and simple tag.
A new look for me.

Thanks for joining in today.

Fantastic Friday!!

My victory of the week is that I got all these things done!!

A corner in the store went from this.....

to this.
( it's a beginning).

I got these two denim flower pins done,
and all those yarns and strings tagged and inventoried.
(Great Denim Flower Pin tutorial by Sachiko at Tea Rose Home.)

I got 6 little Friends tags done.

Finished another bird nest in a frame.

And finished an order for someone.
(better not show you in case gift recipient is looking!) =0)

I also tagged and entered more pages of inventory,
and added pages of numbers for taxes.

My frugal tip today is to save all those
little tiny pieces of everything you think you
cannot possibly ever use for anything!
I used some of them for my Friends tags.
(I'm learning that from my friend Diane, at Diane Knott's Musings!
You should see what she does with scraps!)
Be sure to scroll down through her posts.
You will be amazed at how she puts such wonderful treasures together.

OK, I'm off to rest my aching back, and brain. =))
