I struggled to get a good picture of the way it looks lit up.
It has a 20 strand led battery operated lights.
I am working on a Patriotic Design for the next one.
Have a Great Weekend!

A Chair...A Donation...and Lots of Rain!

THE CHAIR...
A wonderful customer of mine asked me to turn this vintage chair into a flower planter. ( I forgot to take the before picture) She wanted something to match her vintage orange enamelware bowl that will be placed in the seat.
And she has a passion for paisley, so if you look closer, you can see a few paisley flowers in the mix. She will finish the transformation by taking the seat of the chair out and fitting the bowl.
This one she wants blue, green, and turquoise flowers.....I will post a picture when I get it finished.

THE DONATION...
About 5 miles to the north of us is the Buckeye Community Club. They are having their 2nd annual quilt show, where quilts will be on display from Northern Colorado and Cheyenne Wyoming Heritage Quilters. I made this sign for their silent auction.
It is painted on a very old door of a set back cupboard. This is a Renee Mullins design.
and finally...
THE RAIN......
We had almost 2 inches of rain last night in about 3 1/2 hours. The picture is not good because of the night time, but this is the sidewalk to our front steps....it got pretty soggy!!!!!

A Give - A - Way, before the Give -A- Way.....



Seems as though I have stalled at getting to my 100 follower give-a-way! I have been stuck on 79 for quite some time and just really wanting to give something away to my faithful followers that I already have.
So this is what I am going to give-a-way to one lucky follower!
A country tin night light.

Here is how it will work......
I will randomly draw a name from the Followers list.
I will post the name drawn on my blog as the winner.
That person has 2 days to post a comment back on my blog to claim the prize.
If I don't get a post in 2 days, I will draw again and repeat until the prize is claimed.
I will draw the first name on Wednesday, June 8th.
Good Luck to all.
Blessings~

Another try......

So I gave this saw another try.....I like the color better.

You can see the nails and the lettering better.
Notice also the cross on the handle made from nails.
This saw has so much character, I wonder who it belonged to?
What was created with it?
Have a wonderful week.
Blessings~
