around the house

I can not believe that it is already November!!! Our fall is fastly leaving and we had some snow already-here is a little peek of fall!!!! Love these colors but they don't stay long enough for me outside...so I created some fall garland to keep the beautiful rich colors longer....
November is the month devoted to Thanks. I am so blessed and thankful for my family, friends and blog friends. Thankful that God has given my the gift of crafting and creating!!!! What are you thankful for?

The beauty of fall, still amazes me every year. Here are some pics of my visit up home to my mom's home in Fort Fairfield, Maine. Love these dried up sunflowers-even after pure beauty is gone they still sing look at me I am fabulous....

Preparing for the winter, this tiny bee is collecting and gathering just like we do when the weather starts to turn colder out.

And on that note, we had snow storm last week already here in New Hampshire. Of course it doesn't stay on the ground but our Mountains peaks are getting covered.

What I've been Working ON!

My little kittie decided to sleep on the bottom of my kitchen chairs. I just finished washing the kitchen floor. bad kitty but oh so cute.

Here is a card that I made for someone special for a thank you gift. (all material is CTMH)

I downloaded the pattern of "CANDY CANE ANNIE" from The Olde Country Cupboard website at http://oldecountrycupboard.blogspot.com/
ANNIE isn't complete yet I promise to show you completely down. She lots of fun to make but next time I will make her a little bigger. Love this pattern and it's so easy.

Here is a wall hanging for FALL decoration, I made this in one evening watching a movie with my husband. It turned out so cute and easy I am going to make a few more. To sell. Leave me a comment to let me know what you think. It's not completed yet hope to have it down by Friday. My husband is home on vacation and he is trying to finish our living room walls so I can have my craft/studio room back. just think my living room is in my studio room (no room to play much) my house is a mess. Can't wait to be done, when it's all painted I will post pics.

Inspiring yellow

Yellow is seeming to be a fav- of mine lately. I guess because I have been thinking of mustard yellows for fall decorating. Today is quilt group and I am going to sketch out a wall haning for our house for fall and sunflowers.
My kitchen is colored yellow but I don't like it all over my walls so that will change, but I do love splashes of yellow with prim decorating.
Fall is just around the corner, and finishing up the living room walls this weekend and getting the pine kneedle green on them I can't wait, now I am thinking of cranberry color for the dinning room. oh boy, picking out colors and changing my mind drives my man nuts!! ahh
Well have to run my friend will be here so to pick me up for quilt group. see ya soon..
