WOOT ~WOOT

WOOT ~WOOT Look what I can do!! LOL Well Look what I tried to do anyway I have been working on a few projects and have found that with the little creative talent that I have, I was still able to make a few things the were EASY PEASY and I don't think they turned out half bad.....LOL

These candy boxes were a fun and easy project but I am NOT a painter and struggled with that a bit. Over all I am pretty happy with how they turned out but I am kinda thinking GLITTER. Haven't decided yet though.
My Sis~in~Law and I went to the local thrift store and I found a few treasures. I had seen some Apothecary Jars someone had made. I LoVeD them soooo, I was on the look out for something that I could do that was similar.
SCORE!! I found these glass jars and candle sticks
AND~~~
I made my very own Apothecary Jars!!
I of course LoVe~LoVe~LoVe them!
Now I just need to decide what to put in them I am also toying with the idea of having a vinyl Letter made and so I can Monogram them. I was thinking that might add a little sumthin~sumthin to them.
And.... Last but not least, I made a match box car travel caddy. I am thinking of making quite a few of these, these go together really fast and I know my grandson is going to LOVE it. They roll right up and fit nicely into your purse or diaper bag.
Well, that is what I have been up to.... I have also started on quilt number 1 of 18 that I have to get done before Christmas!!
