Angie, Get Your Gun!
December 22, 2012 by 7 Comments
I love old wood. I especially like unusual old wood. When I’m at an auction, I’m always on the lookout for really old wood, preferably on things that are broken or missing parts, because those are often the things other people don’t want. When I spotted this old wooden shotgun stock, that appears someone intended to make a gun with, I couldn’t pass it up. I wasn’t sure what I would do with it, I just know my bidding finger {Read More}

December 21, 2012 by 5 Comments
Ahhh…The British.They have the best accent and thefunnest expressions, don’t they? My daughter is a fan of all things British,so I thought I’d give her a little British bling for Christmas.Nothing super blingish, because she’s isn’t that type,just a few fun things I think she’ll enjoy. She is in need of a new pillowcase,so I typed the definition of England froma dictionary and added “coolest accents in the world”,because their accent definitely defines them. I also purchased a t-shirt for her {Read More}

I’m still in the process of working on this week’s theme, so I don’t have it ready to share yet, but in the meantime, I’ll show you a roundup of signs I’ve created. I’m also working on a new batch of coat racks – still trying to make a bigger dent in my wood pile. Some of these signs, I know I’ve shared with you before; some I haven’t….I think.

Shepherds, Angels and Recent Finds

I think one of my very favorite parts of the Christmas season is Christmas plays, and musicals. Although I love seeing well-rehearsed productions, I adore church plays with lots of little kids. When you have a stage full of little kids, funny things can and will happen, regardless of how much they practiced or how much hair their director has pulled out of her head for the last few months trying to get them ready. My youngest son is in {Read More}
