Well this is the bird feeder I made and I love the soft pink and the antique dishes I used. I can't wait until June the 13th until I move to our Beach Home as I'm going to make another for there. I went there this weekend and made a black one except I put solar lights on it and it's awesome at lighting a area that was sorta dark.
I love to sew just about anything. I also do lots of crafts and painting shabby chic. Sewing is something I've been since I was 11 years old. I made my first quilt top out of neon cotton material back in the 60's and now my daughter is the proud owner of the quilt. I make I Spy Quilts, I Spy Bags, Tooth Fairy Pillows, girls clothing, crayon aprons, pin cushions, just about anything. Sewing just gives me peace of mind and puts me in a comfort mode.

Last Saturday I took a Annie Sloan painting class. Before I got there I stopped at a yard sale and bought this mirror for $1.00 yes $1.00 no mistake. The lady teaching the class said I could paint it and so I did. Without wiping off the nasty thing I painted it once with Duck Egg Blue and put a wax on it and I love it!!! I bought 3 quarts and a small container of paint along with a brush. It better paint really really good for $44.00 for a brush. Anyway I can't wait until you see what I'm doing next. Will post pictures soon.

Thank you for your prayers! I have been keeping myself busy as I was in the middle of redoing my bathroom before Dad passed. I just finished painting it grey and putting up my items and I'm pretty happy with it. I took Mama's bedspread above and her afghan and put it on my spare bed. Now the light fixture is a going to do picture that I found on my FB page. LOVE IT. I will do it with some of Mom's dishes as I have the fixture at the beach just waiting for me to do something with it:) I'm going back to work Mon. and I hope my nerves will be ready for 22 1st graders wanting to give me so much love but I know I'll cry.
