What you will find in this blog


Crafts, recipes, tips and tricks around the house. In olden days, as far back as 1950 if you can imagine, there would be a great many things that your mother would teach you so that you might one day be a good housewife. A lot of those things have fallen away. Mostly because you no longer NEED to know them, like how to decorate a cake or quilt a blanket. But just because you don’t need to know these things doesn’t mean they aren’t fun to know. Most of the things I’ll be showing you are things that I’ve found helpful in my life or that I just wanted to learn. You can also find links to buy kits for making the crafts you see here or the project already completed. So ENJOY!!!

Prompt #6 - Make

December 6 – Make. What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? (Author: Gretchen Rubin)

I love this prompt.  I love making things and I've had a banner year for making stuff.  Here are just a few of the things that I've made.

I made these from LP covers.  I keep my nail polish and girl junk in them.

This was my first attempt at quilting.  Not bad if I do say so myself.

Made for a certain Sgt that it was later revealed didn't deserve it's awesomeness.
Sewing, sewing.  I love sewing.

Paper collage

Wine cork-board.

Mod poge!!!!!!! and cardboard make me happy.

The Sgt again.  Second quilting attempt.  Very cool!!!

That was my year of making stuff.  Not all of it but some of the highlights.
