Happy Birthday Lucie!!

It's my sister's Birthday today!  Happy Birthday Lucie!  I love my sister so much.  When we are together we laugh until we cry.  We hardly see each other but when we get together it's like no time has passed between us!  My sister is on the right with her youngest son in the middle and our niece, Shanie,  on the left.





This is my sister at another one of her son's wedding.  That's Derek, isn't he so handsome with his lovely wife Robin.  And I can't forget Jerry, Lucie's husband.

I'm trying to make all my gifts this year and this is what showed up at my sisters door for her birthday!
Cute, huh!  I hope she likes it!

Crafty weekend for New Years

We had some friends over for New Year's Eve.  There were activities for the kids and the adults, but not for a few teenage girls.  So I checked out some blogs and got a few ideas and set up a table.

I saw a cute jewelry holder from thirtyhandmadedays and a great LOVE idea from Amy Butler's free patterns online.  I found some free 70's fonts online and plugged those into my "Sure Cuts Alot" and waala!



I'm not sure this is where they'll end up, but for now it's a good place.  I even had some supplies left over for my Saturday Night babysitter to make a smaller set.  I think Leena's are so adorable.  I like the smaller size!!!

I've tried to rotate this photo....... but alas, tilt your head please.

My Jewelry holder is not finished.  I need to buy more dowels.  We used all of them on New Year's eve.  But cute, eh!


Happy New Year!
