Grandmothers Old Crochet dolly~~
Grandmothers Old Crochet dolly~~Granny would starch these sweet crochet pieces so stiff---all her doilies would be set in a heavy blue starch over night--then set out in the sun to stiffen.
These old things holds some great memories --you thought forgotten until it is sat in front of you
Then feeling the treasure brings back days long forgotten in the mind~
Scarecrow Jeans
Take a pair of old worn jeans --throw in some fabric /lace scraps~~My scarecrow tattered jeans are coming along nicely~
Making these for the Fall Craft Festivals at Ketner's Mill ~
Have the straw hat to add tattered patches on---
And I will be ready to Rock the craft shows~~
I love these old worn soft jeans perfect for relaxing~~

Nook & Cranny of my Heart~~This may look a little UN-organized to you..BUT, this is my GO TO room when I feel overwhelmed by every day "Life"~
It is cluttered and comfy to me...unfinished projects--always a "someday" I will finish~

Mason Jar Lid~~~ pin cushion
Mason Jar Lid~~~ pin cushion--
sharing a Lil Creative Juice~
using a big mouth mason jar lid.
glue lid and top together-
add kitty litter to a baggie --
just enough to flatten in lid---
glue in side the lid--
this will give the pin cushion some weight---
cut a square of fabric (your choice)-
-creating a ball in your hand the size of the jar lid -
I used batting--cover the ball with the fabric--
hot glue fabric to ball at the bottom-this
will create a round ball for the pin cushion---
hot glue to rim of jar lid--stuff the ball of
covered fabric in the jar lid--cover bottom of
lid bringing the fabric up over the ball and
hot glue--will look messy at this point BUT
wait it gets better----- ---I used a doily to
cover the complete top hot glued in place---
-Now you are ready for some vintage trims
of your choice---My pretty Mason Jar Lid Pin
cushion~~smile~
