~~LIVE LIFE JOYFULLY~~and SIMPLY~~

A kids skate lamp I did for shows last year. I found 3 pair a couple of weeks ago to do more of these!! The double blade skates are really hard to find. My mom pointed them out to me at a thrift store we were in so CHA CHING!! they were all in my basket immediately!!

All these signs sold last year at the show my friends and I put on in Decatur the weekend after thanksgiving! We rented a very cool old old schoolhouse, stuffed it full of holiday treasures and also I put on a lunch for it!! WE had a blast~ now gettin ready to do it again in a few weeks!!

Norton Wood show will be friday sat sun starting the day after thanksgiving!! MARK YOUR CALANDERS~! more primitives and sweet treats this year!!

The show yesterday was ok NOT nearly as busy as any other shows. They ended up with 85 booths and a good selection of items too just not many customers around.

Hope yall have a blessed sunday!!
