Hello my sweet lovely friends! Glad you could stop by and pay me a visit. The past couple of days here in the deep south have been absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Gorgeous blue skies and mild warm sunny weather. I am having MAJOR spring fever!!!! I laugh because we are still in mid February and Valentines Day hasn’t even approached us, and yet I’ve moved on to decorating and crafting for Easter! I’ve noticed MANY other artist have too. 😉
I’ve pulled Miss Bunny out of storage. She says "Hello & Welcome!"
Grab a handful of Easter Candy corn. YUMMMMYYYY!!!!
Ok, just so you know. I have NOT pulled out the Easter decor yet. This is just a few samples of what’s to come. 🙂
I have FINALLY finished creating all of my V-day swaps, and with spring close by and Easter approaching us soon I could NOT resist creating something sweet and whimsical for Easter.
I created some Easter ornaments and this is the Pink Easter Bunny Ornament. I used velvet ribbon, millinery,feathers, plastic eggs, vintage child image, and chenille to create this precious little piece.
A sweet little close-up.
This charming little wee one is the Lavender Easter Bunny Ornament.
This is a better close-up.
These DARLING little ornaments are currently available in my Etsy shop. 🙂
OK! Im SUPER DUPER THRILLED to announce that the very enchanting and talented Lisa Kettell did a little write up feature on me in her new quarterly Faerie Zne Vol 4. magazine. I cant WAIT to get my hands on a copy. You can see my name and bunny box in the left column. YIPPEE!!!!!
Now onto some MORE visual eye candy treats!!!! With my birthday quickly approaching I could NOT resist Miss Sadie Lou’s BIRTHDAY BETSY! I was looking at her Etsy shop, and than with one look I just had to HAVE her.
You MUST check out her collection. I SERIOUSLY want to collect them all!!!!
Im blown away by all the super sweet hostess gifts that Cheryl and I have received. There are some SERIOUS fun perks to hosting! LOL!!!
Im the mail I recieved two more hostess gifts. One was from the very sweet and talented Maria Rodarte. Lookie at this beautiful cupid box and it’s sweet treats. Sooo yummy!!!!
My next sweet treats where from Miss Kelly. She is a hairdresser that is super girlie and owns a hair salon in the coolist historic building. She is just now getting back into crafting was excited to join our swap! Lookie at the goodies she sent.
Houndstooth pink scarf with fun button trim.
Blingy black evening bag.
My favorite surprise was the Marie Antoinette diary book and handmade matching bookmark. Just BEAUTIFUL!!!
Thank you Maria and Kelly. I truly appreciate your thoughtfulness!
Many of you know Miss Jessi Nagy. We met at Silver Bella and we kid and joke with each other that we are siblings. She’s my big SIS beacause everyone says we look alike. Jessi and I have a great friendship and she has blessed me with some super fun and fabulous gifts. Well, I got a package in the mail last week from Miss Jessi and low and behold it was an early b-day gift. She saw it, thought of me and couldn’t resist buying it. I opened the package and let out a HUGE squeel!!! It was a vintage baby planter. I have a serious collection growing and when I saw this planter I just "oooh’d and aaah’d" over it’s sweetness!
It’s displayed with all of my other little lovelies.
Jessi just recently had surgery and is home and resting well. It means the world when someone see’s something special and immediatley they think of YOU! THANK YOU Jessi!!!!
She was ALSO so kind to present me with an award.
I would LOVE to share this with my dear friends Miss Cheryl Dack , Natasha Burns, and CJ Raymer. You guys warm my heart with your friendship and I want to pass this on to you all. 🙂
WHEW! What a long post!!!! Okey-dok. Gotta start packing for my trip! Pray I dont fall and break any bones! LOL!!! I will have my laptop with me and will be joining in on the V-DAY secret admirer swap fun!!!! Cant WAIT to see all of your sweet creations!
