Little Lampshades

Last year I saw this adorable idea on Jenny of Everyday is a Holiday's blog.....I decided to give it a try, and I love how it turned out. I used nut cups as lampshades, and decorated them all with different bits and bobs that I had laying around the craft room. The bulbs are silicone dipped, and I found them at Candy Lights....they are the softest shades of blue, pink, lavender, yellow and green. I am thrilled with how it turned out!!






Have a fabulous day.

Valentine Sweets

I am still plugging away in my craft room, cleaning and organizing. I have so many wonderful ideas for Valentine projects spinning around in my head, so lets hope I can start this week!! In the meantime, I will show you some of the fabulous goodies I have purchased!! This little beauty is from the one and only Magpie Ethel!! I have wanted one of her famous spool dolls for a really long time, and finally broke down and purchased one!! I love her!!!

This sweet little planter was found on Ebay this summer. I picked it up for a steal....only $15.00. They usually sell for much more....so I was quite excited.
The next 3 goodies are purchases from last year from my friend Jen of J. Nichelle. I hadn't plan on buying so many of her goodies, but just couldn't pass any of them up. If you get the opportunity to buy something from her, DO IT....you will not be disappointed.






Jens attention to detail is incredible. The back looks almost as pretty as the front!!
I also won a sweet kit from Elizabeth at Creative Breathing.......I am hoping to make it this week!

Have a lovely day.
