Ahh, Saturday!

What noteworthy accomplishments can I post this week?

Well, I can post pictures of two things I did last week now that they should be “received”…

Having such great first birthday photos made making
there photo postcards super easy! Thank you, Aubrianah!

Bibs for a sweet baby boy…

Thank you’s to those folks who made Jackson’s birthday so special…

I have on my list to post how many hair tutus I finished for the Appomattox Rail Festival, but I haven’t done a single stinking one! So scratch that!

I did get my homework posted.

A special Thank you to Jean, from Nana's Designs for
your help with these! Custom embroidery is a beautiful thing!
 I will get her info on facebook, soon!

I did get my weekly chores done.

I did get out of that funk! Again, a special thank you to everyone who was so understanding and supportive.

And maybe most importantly, I am ready to face next week.

No, most importantly, all I accomplished this week  I was able to do because of the wonderful, talented, and supportive friends I have! I sure am blessed!

How about you?

Tuesday Treasures

I am working on keeping my house clean, which for me means getting rid of a few things and making room for living. This is really hard for me. I see potential in so many things. (This is where my husband starts “coughing” hoarder loudly in my direction!)

 In my cleaning, I came across a treasure – an old wallpaper sample book. It came from the attic of the dear old lady my daughter got her nose from. I have had it sitting here for nearly 2 years – moving it from house to house, from house to storage and back to house.

My plan was to make cards with it, but as I started tearing it apart yesterday I had a friend and her baby on my mind and I was struck…I could make this wallpaper into bibs! Sounds a bit farfetched, I know, but the wallpaper is from 1978 at my best estimate and its all fabric backed and “scrubable” according to the book.

Another project added to the list, but it is one where I have the supplies on hand and will be making good use of something that would have otherwise been trash. Aren’t those some of the best projects?

There are a few pieces that really aren’t bib worthy…but would be great for any number of other things. I will be posting them over at the TIAMO etsy shop.

Be sure to check out the Tuesday Treasure Treasury, too.
