The Envelope Please!

So, I've been doing some cleaning and purging in my office/studio,
and realized I have lots of orphan envelopes.
I didn't want to throw them away,
so I came up with an idea.....
Shopping list and coupon holder in one!

I stuck in all my coupons for that weeks shopping trip,

and, wrote my list on the front!
I've found that it works really well for me!
Hope you like my idea!
Bye for now!

I Gone Flower Loom Crazy!


I recently discovered vintage flower looms,
and I can't stop making these yarn flowers!
Actually, I remember seeing these when I was a kid,
but never got to try it.

So here are my creations.
I call them.......

Pretty Posh Posie 3 in 1 accessories!
First its a pin that you can where on your sweater, hat or purse.

Second, its a necklace, when you combine it with the chain!


Above is my "model" showing it as a necklace/choker.

Third, it can be worn as a headband!
What do you think?
I'm really excited about them,
and they are now available at my shop!
And, there are more coming,
I have so many ideas for color combos!
Bye for now!
