Litttle Houses


.

These have been on my to-do list for over a year,
so fun and easy to make.
Also I was experimenting with the spider
web quilt pattern so I made a little coaster.
Yikes that took patience, I'll save that pattern for the
serious quilters

Paper Flowers


                                    
Paper flowers made from the pages 
of an old book.

Lots of hearts about 15 for each one. Folded

What's keeping me busy?



Pinterest!
I used old wood from last years
porch removation for  this adorable
faux birdhouse and stand.

I say faux because my husband could not understand
the point in making a birdhouse that a bird can
NOT actually live in.
(yeah you guest it.... he doesnt do pinterest)

And who has not seen this awesome idea
for using old pallets.
(I planted lettuce and spinach)
A little more fun with my flower beds.


And a sneek peek at my I SPY quilt I am working on.
