Baskets

Found this old basket in my friends shed, she was throwing it out as it had been there for a very long time, so I had to reuse it. I was thinking of using it for when I get new crafting stuff to place there and leave it on my desk, I get new stuff most of the time and I just put it away and then forget about it. I have many items in my craft room that have never been used. the basket  was very dirty whit I got it, so after scrubbing and cleaned it all I first wanted to paint it, yet after seeing it when was all clean, I loved the rustic look, so decided to leave it. I added some ribbon around the handle and then some small red flowers around the rim. It must admit that it looks so pretty now.


 And here it is with some of my new goodies in. Now to just use them.

Happy crafting!

Tim Holtz Tag

Yes I finished my January tag and I am very pleased with it. Most of the time when Tim brings out a tag, I don't have any of the stuff he has to make it, but, luckily, I got some of his stuff in the sale this year so was
very happy. Can't wait until next month now to see what he is going to come up with.


Have fun crafting!

Hi, I am back and will try to make it work this time around.

I wanted an idea book to write down future projects and also keep track of all crafting products I want. I would always be looking around shops in awe, coming out with things that I didn't exactly need, or have the right equipment for, so I thought that it would be better for me to keep track. I found a plain notebook and, of course, I had to decorate it.
I used some glitter foam background paper, a paper pieced prima-doll stamp, and a tissue paper flower. Now to fill it with the things I want!

My nephew will be two years old on Wednesday, so made him this card.
Have a creative day! Thanks for stopping by.
