Snow Happy




Sweet Sugar Cookies...these have to be my favorite pom poms so far.



Yes, that is a fake sugar cookie around this sweet bird's neck and Blue peppermint chenille stems for legs.


Mint green and Pink glitter cottage and how cute is that mini pink tree? Ready or not Snow is going to fall soon.

Visit my shop.


Hold the phone...we are interrupting this regularly scheduled blog for some sweet baby time! A little visit yesterday with my great nephew, Caleb. It was a pleasure to cradle him in my arms until he fell asleep.

3 Peppermint Red Bluebirds are flying south for the winter.
Sweet things in life...

A little needed pumpkin time before the trip southward.




Some more poses with Mr. Pumpkin. They are going to miss him but the warmer weather sure is calling their names.

WARNING: If you are Elizabeth..you may not want to view this last photo as I know you are not fond of scary Halloween. Close your eyes now and scroll quickly ...






Dear hubby cut these last year for my daughter and her boyfriend. Didn't they do a great job?!!









Happy Halloween

Peppermint Happiness Bluebirds



While I was making Elizabeth's baker's dozen of Peppermint Happiness Bluebirds..I decided to whip up 3 more for the shop.

They do somehow take on their own little personality


And for those who may have been waiting for more glitter cottages, two have been listed and hope to have more made before Christmas.



Believe it or not, Christmas is just around the corner.

Be SAFE- crazy man in our town.


Gunman on loose after shootings in Indiana and Illinois




Happening in our little town right now.
I work at the school one mile from the shooting.
We were on lock down all afternoon.
Buses did not take students home.
Parents came to sign students out.
Traffic and Parents, kids everywhere.
Newscasts in Chicago area broadcasting.
Can you say Crazy?
Worried until my high school son walked in the door safe!
Our quaint little community no longer feels safe.
School has been canceled today.
No site of this crazy man.
Long restless night with random sleep.
Praying for the victims and their families.


Please Be safe and hug your family tight and hope they find this crazy killer before he hurts more people.
