I finally got a set of the fabric apples done!! Yeah me!!! LOL!! They turned out great!! I am so happy with the way they look. They are made of muslin and hand painted with a real stick stem. They would look great sitting in anyone's kitchen. You can find them for sale here. More fruit will be added soon.

 

Wishing everyone a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. May the joy of the season fill your hearts throughout the coming year!!



God Bless you all,

New Faux Fruit coming Soon

I am in the process of working on some faux fruit that is made out of muslin and then painted. I have gotten the patterns down for making apples, tomatoes and pears! I also want to try my hand at making several other fruits  like peaches, oranges, bananas, strawberries and more! If these all work out, I may even try and make some other veggies too. So stay tuned for when I have those listed. I will post pictures when I have some finished.

I am so excited!! I have gotten my first sale at my New North Woods Rustics shop on Etsy! It didn't take as long to make my first sale as I thought it was going to and I am very thankful to the Lord for that! I also have started to use Ebay again after a 1 ½ year break from there. I only listed a few items and so far I have a bid on one of those! God is good!! I am praying that I have a lot more sales here in the next couple of weeks.

I plan on getting started on some more new items for the North Woods Rustics shop as soon as my elbow gets better. But for now, I guess I will just have to take this time and enjoy the Christmas season!

Blessings to you all,

Really bummed!!

Well, I just came back from the doctors. He says I have Tennis Elbow. That means that all of my crafting has to come to a halt for now as I am not supposed to use my arm until it heals. That is going to be a lot of fun since it is my right elbow and I am right handed. I shouldn't even be typing with that hand, so until it heals, I am going to have to do the hunt and peck method of typing :(  That ought to be fun! Alas, I guess I can take this time and enjoy the holidays. Got a lot of cooking to do later anyways. Guess hubby is gonna have to do all the stirring and mixing for me! He's gonna love that teehee!!!

Will post pics later of some of the finished goodies!

New Puppies!!

Here are some new pics and pics of Momma :)

What's News!

Hello,

Well after a very hectic week and not being at home much, I finally got a day to do some work on my prim crafts. I still have to finish up quite a few so that I can get them listed. I am hoping to be able to do that in the next few days.

I am still praying for those of you who wander through here to stop for a while and join my blog. I would be thrilled to get a few entries for my banner contest.

Blessings,
Chris
