Hi There!
Probably my last post this week as I am getting ready for a big (i hope) craft fair on Saturday. If you are in the Northern Kentucky area, stop by and visit me!

Anyhoo....finishing these cute little clothespins today and finally found a way to display them! This was a suggestion from a crafter on SCS. GENIUS I tell you! And all for less than $10.00. Used a metal cookie sheet from Walmart ($4.50) and a book stand from Michael's ($4.00 with 50% coupon).

The magnets I used are from this site on ebay and are SUPER strong. I had to change my adhesive to that "stinky" E-6000 stuff because the magnets were pulling off the clothespin!





Thanks for looking!

Valentine Mailbox

My 10 year old DD decided that she wanted to make (or have ME make) something for her "very best friends" this year. Luckily, this year she only has 4 "VBF's" so I got off easy! After much debate, we happened to be in Target at the $1 spot and saw these Pink Metallic Mailboxes for $1.00! Ding Ding! We have a winner! Needed cute paper, so went to our LSS and found this Basic Grey patterned paper ! LUV IT! These are super easy, but a little time consuming getting the paper around the flag! But I was using my new "Wonder Toy" - My ATG Gun and they came out really cute! Once I get my Storybook Cricut Cartridge, I will be putting each girl's initial on the lid.

Here are some of the items that will be going inside...

1. Little bubbles that I found in the wedding section at Hobby Lobby - covered w/matching paper, ribbon and a foamy heart
2. Cupcake Bookmark - found them @ Joann's
3. Love Potion and Candy Ring - from a local candy outlet
