Sweet, Sugary Easter ~ Shop is filling up.

In the process of adding Easter Pom Pom Peeps and Glitter Cottages to my shop.
Although the calendar says Spring, the thermometer does not. It is a balmy 35* F today. That felt warm to me. That is ridiculous to say out loud!!! Spring warmth cannot come soon enough to Northwest Indiana. I love me some Sunshine!

 

 

 Come visit me ~ Happy Spring :)

Pain in the Neck

This is me for the last 2 days. Wait, I know what you're thinking. I'm not the happy, cooking housewife. What am I referring to is the appearance of her having a stiff neck. It is very unnatural to have a stiff neck and pain. I feel like a robot.

I did hold my head upright enough to list this cottage. It wasn't easy.

I love how the pink and green go together. It reminds me of spring.

I will not be terribly upset if this cottage does not sell...just sayin'.

On the other hand, I will be terribly upset if this neck pain doesn't subside by tomorrow.
Ibuprofen, water, heating pad, and ice pack are my best friends today.

Hope you're having a fabulous day,

Julie

It's fr fr freezing...

Baby, it's cold outside. After an unusually warm start of winter, we are finally feeling the chill! Today's temperatures are a high of 15.

Time to post these cuties that I finished up last weekend. This Raggedy Ann colored cottage is for my sister. She decorates her tree for Valentines in Ann & Andy.


A sweet aqua and pink duo. These colors always remind me of cotton candy.

A new twist on Valentine colors. Red and Aqua really pop.

Two more Valentine cottages in traditional colors and shape.

Happy Valentine's Day..mwahhhh,

Julie

Glitter-fied

You cannot do any better for a gift that is crafty, thrifty, and glittery all in one.
From humble beginnings glittery things can be made.

Crafted these for the all "girls" in my family. Yes, they are made from small treat boxes left from my bosses' Christmas gift basket. I saved them from the horrible landfill.

Used my favorite color combination of aqua, pink, and white.

You did know that picket fences always make for a good neighbor?
It does!
Not that I have bad neighbors or a picket fence;)

They are so sugary sweet I could just bite one.

Never mind me saving the world one box at a time.
Look out people, I have glitter....

Sea of Green Peeps

Peep...Peep...Peep times 18.


12 of these Frosty Green Peeps will be so lucky to find a home at Elizabeth's place.

If you have not visited her blog...stop now and GO.......

They are not cramped. They are comfy, cozy all snuggled together in their fluffiness.

One of my favorite views of the peeps.

Each one the same...but different. Their cute little faces always have their own personality.

3 Shamrock Green Peeps and 2 Frosty Green Peeps are in my shop.

They are as fun as a "Barrel of Monkeys" I never could play that game very well.

Valentine Candy Box Album Kit from E

A sweet Pink Valentine Candy Box Scrapbook Album From Elizabeth from Bluebird Papercrafts.


Elizabeth is the Queen of Paper crafts and making her own patterns. She orders my pom pom birds by the dozen. She makes her own pom pom critters that are super cute and they are usually adorned with felt clothes.


It looks just like a Valentine candy box.



Elizabeth even included all the coordinating papers that fit the theme perfectly!





Hooked it on the handle of my china hutch for now. I have to decide what pictures to fill it with.

Happy Valentine's Day

Just in time for Valentines

With not a minute to spare. The little pink lighted tree is loaded with Valentine goodies.
It may even be overloaded...but can you have too many pretties and sweets?
My heart from E...very special to my heart.

One of my pink lovebirds. Can you see the pipe cleaner garland?



One of my small cupcake cottage ornaments...sugary sweet for sure~

A variegated pom pom with rick rack hanger.


I love those milky white glass bulbs. Also added some vintage ribbon still on wooden spools.


I spy a red glitter lollipop in the background :)


Wooden Cherries hiding in the back.

Lots of goodies right there ^


Purchased those glittery puffy hearts from Dollar Tree...8 in a pack. They will appear again on this post.

And there are more glittery puffy hearts. Used some sea salt I had hanging around in the pantry for years to a pretty glass vase. A pretty pink polka dot ribbon ties it up. The Vintage Valentine cupid clown is from Mary. You have to see her collections.



2 more pink trees that I boxed back up..need more Valentine goodies to fill them up~


Some red ceramic cardinals to top off the shelf <3


Happy Valentine's Day Weekend,

Julie
