Summers Past Farms Craft Fair - Dec 5

Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving.

I am now gearing up for the up coming Dec 5th Summers Past Farms Antique & Craft Fair. This great venue has all types of crafts and beautiful antiques. I will have all of my quilted totes, greeting cards, charm necklaces and other jewelry including my domino pendants. Please stop by and say Hi.

Viejas Craft Fair

I had a great time yesterday at the Viejas Employee Craft Fair. It's so nice to see old co -workers and friends. I hope everyone is happy with their purchases. I am glad that I made the Daily Planners and Gift Card Envelopes as they went fast. This is a sample of the Gift Card Envelopes. Photo is a little faded but you still can get the idea. I just cut a piece of Christmas paper using my nestabilities scalloped shape and oval shape. I printed "Seasons Greetings" onto red and green card stock using my HP printer. Then tied a little gold jingle bell and a small Christmas light onto the bow with some red twine. The envelope will fit any gift card. Plus you can flip the tag over and write the To: and From: on the back. Great for the office co-workers that you might be giving a gift card to. It will hold a pair of earrings also.

Day Planners

Well, I have been working on some Day Planners for 2010! Wow, I remember when 2000 seemed so far into the future that it was hard to comprehend! Well, guess my age is catching up with me!
I found these today at Target in the $1.00 bin. I have covered them with pretty papers and added a ribbon tie.

Hopefully you will be able to see the charm on the teal bow on this tote. It's a small heart. Just click on the photo to enlarge.
Here are some more color prints. I will have 2 totes in each print.

Totes and more Totes

I have decided to add bows and a little crystal charm pendant to my totes. I think this will give them a cute accent.

Totes

As you can see I have been busy this last month. I have been busy making Tote bags for the craft fair that will November 17th at Viejas Casino. These are 3 of them. I hope to have about 8 more made before the fair. I am attaching ribbons and a small gift to each one. Don't know what just yet. Maybe a sachet, nail polish, clips??? Aren't they cute?
GO GREEN - RECYCLE - are the new buzz words!

These will make great gifts. They all have an inside pocket and are lined. The are also reversible. It measures aprox 10"x 13"

You can keep one in the car for emergency use. Stuff them with wipes, Kleenex, a tooth brush, deodorant, hair spray, Advil, and any other little thing you forget in the morning before leaving for work. Keep it at your desk or in the car. Even use it to replace plastic shopping bags while shopping. It's a great little tote for dashing out for a quick trip to the store or picking up the kids. Throw in your keys, wallet and cell phone! Ta da! It just became your purse.

Halloween - Trick or Treat

Ok, I haven't been writing for a while. I have been extra busy this last month.

I wanted to share with you the cutest little "Trick or Treat" bucket I found at Barnes and Noble. I bought it for our little "Fish" Rachel! She is , of course, our littlest "fish". I also found an orange and black "Nemo" stuffed fish from Douglas to put in the bucket along with some new socks and hair clips. You all know how I love sparkle! Click on the picture to see it enlarged.

I couldn't resist getting it. Plus it is color coordinates to boot! Hope you can see the sparkles on the fish.
