I recently made a Primitive Prairie Stocking, I was inspired by a pattern by "Sweetmeadows Farm".

 I used coverlet fabric for the stocking. The stocking is approx. 19" long.

I am asking $32.99 plus traveling fee. Only one available.

Email me if interested Lecia123@verizon.net



Next I have a set of dollhouse dolls. inspired by Norma Schneeman dolls,

The dolls are small Mamma approx. 10" and daughter approx. 8" tall. Asking $32.99 plus traveling fee for

the set. One set available.




Remember a few months ago I painted my kitchen cabinets black and put down new flooring,

Well it was too much black with with old cabinet handles. I wrapped them in jute for a twist,

which really perked them up. I had went into a habitat for humanity store and found some

really cute white knobs for less that $10.00 for all of the cabinets, I am attaching a before

and after picture, really love the new knobs.

Wonderful Swap Goodies

 I participated in Amy "Bumble Bee Lane"    Christmas Gingerbread swap.

I felt like a little girl on Christmas morning opening my wonderful box of goodies from

Amy.  Amy certainly spoiled me. I should have posted sooner but my daughter

is type 1 diabetic and was in CCU this week with diabetic ketoasidosis, a very serious condition.

She got home today and is still very weak. I am so thankful that the Lord spared her life.

I am emotionally drained but so happy and so thankful that Stephanie is home!!!!

   I want to show you the wonderful goodies that Amy sent me, and she had everything wrapped

so beautifully.  I didn't know that Amy could sew, she made the wonderful bunny, the Santa ornie,

and the gingerbread man. She does awesome work. She also made the gingerbread bowl filler

ornies.  When I was looking at my treasures I saw where she had gotten me a penny rug purse,

that was designed by Karen "My Colonial Home"  . It is beautiful.!!! Karen makes such beautiful penny

rugs and designs penny rug patterns.  



soap, it smells so yummy!!! Bunny, and ginger ornies Amy made. The penny rug purse designed by Karen.
Thank you soooo much Amy, you sure spoiled me, I love everything!!!!Thank you for hosting such a wonderful swap!!! If you don't know Amy stop by her blog it is wonderful!!!! Amy is a lovely person,blogger friends are the best!!!

Some Christmas Decorating

I just can't believe that today is already December 1st. we are on the countdown to Christmas now.

I will share a few photo's of some of my Christmas decorating.  I love Christmas, the celebration of

Christ's birth, the decor, the lights, the music, the hustle and bustle, baking cookies, the Christmas Carols,

the ringing of the Salvation Army bells, the Christmas plays at church, the sparkle in my grandbabies eyes,

the goodness in peoples hearts to help the less fortunate, just so many wonderful things! Wishing you all a

very wonderful Christmas Season!!!
