Pumpkin Head Witch Doll ~ Mini Pumpkins ~ Mouse in the Pumpkin Patch

Gearing up for a Fall Celebration with the OFG Etsy Team! On Saturday I will be listing 3 new Fall/Halloween "treasures" in my Etsy shop.

I created this Pumpkinhead Witch Doll using a pattern by Veena's Mercantile! I just love the design. She is wearing a fabric made candy corn around her neck and carries a bag of fresh cut Sweet Annie.

I made the mini 2 1/2" pumpkins from painted osnaburg, a stick, wire vine and some wool leaves. So cute for a shelf, cupboard or bowl.

The mouse sits proudly in an antique soap dish with 2 tiny little fabric made pumpkins and his "For Sale" sign.

Craft Show report!

Well............. the weather forecast was showing rain all day!!!!!!!!! Was not looking forward to setting up in the rain but fortunately it held off until around 10:00 or so! We were prepared so all went well. It didn't stop the customers from shopping! The sun did eventually come out in the afternoon but then it was very humid and hot! Don't know which was worse! Today it is chilly here in PA! Too bad this front didn't move in a couple of days earlier!

It was so nice to see all of you who stopped by to see me! It's so nice to meet online friends in person!

The wood toaster covers and the Halloween blocks were a big hit so I will need to be replacing some of those for my next show in October!

In the front left hand corner of the table are some of the bowls that my son turned on the lathe. He inherited his grandfathers old lathe and really enjoys using it.

My next show is October 10th so I have a few weeks to prepare which will be nice! Need to reorganize my craft room so I can find what I'm looking for...........it was getting pretty bad!

Preparing for Shippensburg Corn Festival!

Saturday is coming toooooooooooo fast!!! Today I'm finishing up some mice for the show and needed a break so I thought I would share a picture or two with you! I love these old funnels, vintage tumbler holders, baby shoes and old strainers.............the mice fit in them perfectly! I found this new angel twig too which I like working with.

Saturday looks like rain so hopefully everyone will grab a raincoat and umbrella and still come shopping! At least it won't be so hot like it usually is!

And I must stick a picture in here of my precious little Granddaughter Jillian!!! She is a tiny little bundle of joy!! It has been a busy 3 weeks!

Craft Show Pictures!

Here are a couple of pictures from the show on Saturday!

Around 3:00 we received word that 60 mile an hour winds and hail were headed out way! Yikes!!! That was scary! Needless to say we started packing up real quick!!! We were prepared so nothing was lost but it is such a pain packing up in the rain! It poured down rain for the next 2 hours but fortunately we did not have the wind and hail! Thank goodness someone was watching out for us! As we put the last piece of props into the truck and shut the tailgate the sun popped out!

Finishing up and packing up for a Show on Saturday!

Bright and early on Saturday morning my sister and I will be setting up for a show! It is being held at Caledonia State Park in Fayettville, PA. Located between Gettysburg and Chambersburg on Route 30! Here are some of my new "treasures" I will be selling!

Mini Cupboards using a print by Susan Burd for the door and a Box to hold CD's which I handpainted using a Kim Klassen design.

Sure hope this beautiful weather we have been having sticks around for Saturday!

Prim Tin PinKeep & Wool Cell Phone Necklace

I added a zinc lid pinkeep to the top of a primmed up soup can with a grungy paper label. It makes a great way to store sewing items.

Also, added another cell phone necklace to my Etsy shop. This one is appliqued with coneflowers and a bee. Thanks to Sarah and Constance for these ideas as to what you can use it for..............business cards you are passing out while at a craft show or collecting as a customer, MP3 players, IPods. I'm sure you can think of more ideas........ let me know what you come up with!
