Mudcakes & Cupcakes Raggedy Ann DoLL
2 new dolls made. I am so excited about these two creations. I was only going to make one but then I thought some mudcakes were so fitting. ...
I painted this. I know. Me. Yes. I did. Not bad for someone who does not paint huh? I entered a contest and well I didn't win. But it's OK, I have this great sign I am going to display in my sewing corner. hehe

Old Spice Rack Repurposed Makeover
I found this old spice rack at the thrift store yesterday. I started giving it a makeover/repurpose as soon as I got home. I just spray pai...
So yesterday set my mind curious with what else I could find at the other thrift stores I know of around here. There is film in that Polaroid camera and the batteries are still in there and working. We shall see what happens. hehe. I paid 25 cents for each of those Pyrex mugs. Not my color but someone at my craft show might like them. That adorable pink and aqua sewing machine if from 1986. The box and the instructions and everything needed is all there. The backing to cover up where the batteries go in, yes its there. This sewing machine sews yarn. How cool is that. It only sews it to paper tho. I am going to use this to display really not play. How fun it will be to try something. I should scan those sewing cards they came with. I am going to remake that white shelf. I can't wait to explore all those buttons. My goodness. Ya know each bag was 2 bucks and they are all from 1960's and older. I have a few things I haven't listed that I shall be listing on Etsy. I will post more photos when I list them. I had $20.00 to spend. I brought home $1.00. Yipee for Vintage Shopping Friday!

Thrift Store Find Thursday
I was not planning on going to the thrift store today. Yet, there I was. I was running a few errands this morning and I was in front of a th...
I have been away from here. But you did know cause I left with out saying a word. Hubby and I escaped for the weekend by ourselves and it was very fun. You need fresh new scenery every now and then. Could be anything, just do it. Escape the norm and make some memories! I have been busy making prizes for the Primmart Convention. The date is getting close. Soon May will be here and the count down of days will begin for me. I just can't wait to see all my friends old and new. I have already taken photos of the goodies I made and will share them with you after May. I know. ugh. I am currently making some Fig Newton Girls. I am getting ready to stuff my brains silly this afternoon. I am going to watch a bunch of old flicks and work on my upper body strength. Stuffing is always good for the muscles. Ok, the way I stuff is. I am still working out btw. Can you believe that? I am really excited that I have lost poof on my belly. Yet there is still more toning to do. My Hubby never has to worry about toning. I look at a bagel I gain 5lbs in my thighs. Cardio I really don't mind doing. Weight lifting. I totally love it. Lunges and squats, TOTALLY HATE! Yet I love the results. All this just to not have to buy clothes and stay healthy. Cause I am thrifty yet adore life. XOXO

I made a new free pattern for you all. He is just in time for Spring. He is really easy to make. You can make him from wool felt or crafting felt. Wool felt is stronger and recommended. I did use crafting felt for the facial features. Crafting felt is made from recycled products (usually plastic bottles) and wool felt is made from wool. Both are in the go-green family so don't shy away from crafting felt. There are many uses for them both. The pattern is here and its in PDF format. I am really hooked on Japanese crafting at the moment. So of course I gave my bear a Japanese name. Keiko the Bear.You can make Keiko and sell him where ever you please. Craft shows, online shoppes, websites and auctions. Just please please please, tell them where you got the pattern from....ME! XOXO

Oh my look at these awesome Mod vintage patterns. I was gifted them from my friend Shirley. She totally surprised. She told me they were from her Gramma. I feel so honored to have been given them. I will take care of them and use them often. I am just excited about them. I can't wait to make some clothing now. There are some 80's outfits in there too. I adore dressing up and making clothing that come from Eras of the past. I am completely a retro fool. I can mix and match the patterns. Gosh where to begin? Thank you Shirley. Goodness. THANK YOU ever so much! XOXO
