What is this!

Wow, what a special treat, it is cold and rainy, I am getting crafty. I have my cup of tea and my summer place mats for the patio. Yes, yes I know summer is almost over but at least I will have completed one of many of my summer projects. Here it is four outside cute pink and green place mat:)





This is the front of the place mats:


This is the back:

The front is lime green with big pink flowers and the back is the same lime green with pink and white polka dots. Super cute if you ask me!!

Happy Rainy day!!




The weather...

This rainy and cold day brings a memory of my childhood. The song or poem:

rain rain go away come back some other day. Which as a child I would sing and sing so I could go out and play. But, now as an adult with no kids in sight. I sit in my "studio" and think bring on the rain, as I see it I get more done crafting or cleaning inside my house when it is raining.

Oh, everyone says that they hate the rain. I have to say that I really like because it gives me a chance to stay inside and play craft day. Today, is a perfect day it is August but feels like October, it is cold and rainy outside. So, I am going to go over to my mom's house so she can help me cut out and peice together a laptop protecter ( which is a padded case for my laptop).

So, to all those people out there that poo poo the rainy day's, get to your craft room or corner and get some crafting, sewing, knitting, and scrapbooking done.

A happy day is a day spent crafting.

How do you get your creative juices flowing?

So I am just trying to figure out how to feel motivated to be creative? How do you do it when you feel bored and funky.

I think this is how I am going to go about catching the creative crafty feeling. I am going to clean my studio up, clear off my working space and jump in to working on my idea book tonight. I might even pour myself a glass of wine. I think that will definitely get the juices flowing. What do you think.
