Crafty me

I have finally started making a few things to brighten up the house a bit .
I made a grouping of 6 blocks for one wall as seen below.... Just 5 pieces of Styrofoam, a few pieces of scrap booking paper and glue and some peel off  tape on the back to hold them up until we leave, and then they will go in garbage....so easy and so nice looking

In the kitchen, I took some old coasters from home, painted them blue, photocopied some vintage pictures off the web and Mod Podged them on to the coasters. These too are hung using removable tape.....

Today is Friday 13th  so stay safe out their dear friends and family. Don't walk under any cats or let any black ladders cross in front of you....or visa versa I guess.

This afternoon we will be helping the park set up for the craft sale tomorrow morning. I will have to be there by 7:30 at the latest on Saturday to set up my table to sell cards. I went to another park yesterday to check out their crafts and to see if any one was selling cards to see what they are charging to give me an idea on what to charge..... Two women were selling cards and theirs were so different from mine I figured I would just sell them all for $2.00 and get rid of as many as possible.
Those I like myself will be priced at $3.00  and then I can start over when I get home and create some different ones. ( Or maybe I will do more of altered art things such as journal covers and wall hangings.)  I had close to 300 cards and time to get rid of them if I can.

For those wondering about Harvey dancing on his birthday, it did not happen as we did not go to the Gallopin' Goose as it was full and no room for the group that were planning on going. Our friends met us in the city at the Golden Corral Buffet and we kind of  overate the evening away and then back to our place for coffee and chat.
Harvey says thanks to all those who sent Birthday wishes via the blog, email, Facebook or phone calls.

Your wall hangings are pretty darn COOL! When you come home, show Kass how you did them ... she wants more things to decorate her walls!
Sell lots at your craft sale tomorrow! Wish I was there... tg
