Vintage Necklaces and SpRiNgY things

Hi there! Happy (almost) mid-week! 

Wanted to show a couple necklaces that I made. I really love how they turned out!! 

I used a vintage brooch, vintage lace/trim and vintage pearls 

(from a necklace I found in an antique store, in this post here) up the sides. 

And here the second vintage necklace: 

vintage brooch piece, vintage lace/trim

and (5) vintage pearls up the side. 

Both necklaces are long 

 and both measuring about 30 inches 

((And both for sale too!!)) 

Bunny friends! 

I whipped these little cuties up, they were really easy and fun.(Found on Pinterest)

I'm hoping to make some more with some pretty fabrics too! 

Perfect to stick in some Easter baskets!

 Yay for Pom-Pom Flowers!!!

I made these Pom-Pom flowers and took them up to my booth in some pretty painted, distressed and sealed ball jars I started working on last summer! Lucky me on our only (so far) upper 40s degree weather we had a week ago I sealed the yellow outside. Ok, it might have reached into the 50s! lol.

Happy mid-week!!

Wishing you a creative day!

Is Spring here yet

Hi sweet friends! Happy Monday, welcoming another new week! 

Over the weekend we didn't get much of spring like weather, very cold, gloomy and some snow flurries....I feel like I'm getting so anxious for warm air! 

(the cute image above is from sweet Meri)

I got these sweet vintage Easter candles out, of course I had to keep a couple to decorate with and I took a few up to my booth in this little yellow carton.

 Aren't their faces just so cute! I love the little hats and bows too!

I had two custom orders for a couple bracelets I made,

 and these were the bags I made to put them in :)

 Love the little bows at the top!

I added a little Easter grass to the bags 

I tried a couple new scents for my warmer tarts last week, they smell so good! 

Grapefruit & Mangosteen

and

Creme Brulee 

*You can find both warmer tarts in my Etsy Shop too :) 

Thanks for catching up with me!! Hope you have a lovely new week!! 

I've got some spring crafting to do today!! :)

It's the little treasures in life

Hi sweet friends! Hope you all are doing wonderfully!

Here are the little treasures I brought home with me from the other day! Isn't that baby book planter way to cute to pass up!?! I thought it will be perfect in a baby's room ....one day, not yet! :) 

Such a cute little clock (that doesn't work) but thought it would be cute just to sit somewhere or what I was thinking while in the store; to take it apart, use it as a little shadow box and use the face of it for my jewelry making! I found some old milk and ice cream lids and a cute tiny license plate, that I'm planing on incorporating into some jewelry bits! :) 

Sweet tea cups for candles and a pearl necklace, as for some jewelry makings :) 

Found these two sweaters that I thought would be so cute as mittens!! Not sure if i'll get to the project soon, or I might just wait till the fall when it starts to get cold again............but then again with our weather!! It might be tomorrow! haha.....

 Yes, that's right we got a good 6-7 inches of snow Tuesday night into Wednesday. And why yes it was 50 degrees Monday! {Only in Indiana!} 

Jerry was zooming around again! 

Here come have a seat with me! 

But I will have to say it was all soooo pretty again! I feel like I can stare into the woods forever! 

Think Spring, think spring, think spring!!!! 

I just emailed Sandy to join her sweet swap!

Happy sweet day to you!!!
