Quiet Friday ~

Seems today I'm lacking the words to fill my post....

so I will fill it with wonderful images.

Also, a little reminder of my free mitten tutorial and the pattern I use to make them too.

The link to the instructions is in my upper left sidebar ~

I created these the first year of my blog so

I'm sure most of you have seen it by now

but you never know :)

Have you seen these gorgeous slippers Lisa made?

She's teaching a class on creating them!!!

Confessions of a blogger ~

So what am I going to confess?
Well, sometimes....I got nothing. I mean it.
Sometimes I've not been creative,
or I'm tired and just I have no imagination whatsoever!
But does that mean I won't blog?? Not a bit!!!

I still have to say hello, that I'm so glad to be here,
that I'm so very glad you're here
and that I've been fortunate enough
to "meet" so many of you through this blog of mine.

I'm coming up on my 3 year blogiversary
February 11th and of course
I want to have a giveaway to celebrate!!
So now I just need to decide what to give away....


Here are a few more images I scanned for you
from the books that I found this weekend!

I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday precious friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

What makes you happy?

It doesn't take much to make me happy...6 bucks will do! I found this amazingly old book while treasure hunting yesterday, and just LOOK at the date...1855!!! My goodness!!! And for six dollars? Honey, you are MINE!

Yes, the pages are stained and spotted with age. There are even pages missing ~ but who cares. What is important is that this wonderful old book is still here, after so many years.

I love the embossed cover and the beautiful old handwriting inside ~

And there was this precious image inside that made me think of you ~
and how much you would love it!!!

Such good stuff to share with you:

Just LOOK at the precious snowman that Marianne of Songbird made from my tutorial in Artists Class!!!! I absolutely LOVE him sitting on a box....can you tell what special job he will have for her holiday gathering?? :) He's so wonderful Marianne, thank you so much for sharing him with me!

You've got to see these eco-friendly Christmas ideas from Mitzi on Mitzie's Collectibles Blog! What's so neat, is that I have several of these ornament boxes that I've saved not knowing what to do with them! I knew they had wonderful graphics but....what to do with them?
Well, now you know.....

I hope you have a great Friday sweet friends!!!
hugs and love,
Dawn
