TIMES HAVE BEEN A CHANGING!!!

Ok, now I know Ive been busy , but I guess time has certainly gotten away from me. It has been 3 years since i have posted on here? Too much to mention, to much to try to get anyone that is interested in getting caught up on.

First of all, I still love the pink and white shabby chic, If it werent for growing boys I would have adorned my home with all the shabby I could. But the older they have gotten, it just seems that it has been shoved aside , to footballs, video games and dirty shoes .

To be totally honest, I stopped making the pretty pink things and selling my wares on ebay because of some not so nice sellers that I wont mention their names in any way. I just dont feel that my time is worth their obsessions with causing me stress.Please dont get me wrong, there are MANY wonderful and inspiring Shabby Chic artists that still inspire me, and are lovely through and through.(Just a few that arent, actually dont know if they are even around anymore ,,but WHATEVER..right?

So , with the advice of my youngest Niece, I began a journey in a completely different direction. I will always hold the pink and white shabby chic close to my heart , but business and supporting my family is more important. So times have been a changing...

I will post a view of my obsessions? I guess you can call it that, but also my new love of sewing. Not sure how much Ill keep my blog up to date, It depends on you. If I find an interest, Ill be here. When I can.
I now make My Little Pony Plushies , all custom, either the originals , or what the Bronies call OC's.(their own designs) These are just a few of my recent ponies, I have made MANY others. I love them, Everyone of them make me smile.
MADE WITH LOVE AND SHIPPED WITH A HUG

Happy Pink Saturday..

WOW!! I have been so busy, I cant believe how long it has been since I posted last. YIKES..
Busy with my shop, my new designs for 2010 Christmas Stockings.
The weather has been crazy, it is cold , then warm then it has rained like crazy, and now today it is 85 and tomorrow it is suppose to rain. So painting all my junkin finds has been a huge task. I just finished painting a table black, first time with the black, IT looks amazing. My customer is going to LOVE it, I wish I had taken a before pic. I found it in the trash too, glass top, everything intact. LOVE THAT. Dont you ?

By the way.,,.HAPPY PINK SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had so many inquiries and comments about our Little Frank. Yes he is a blessing, and a HANDFUL. Today officially marks the day that he is an outdoor cat. With access to the garage at night. He has broken so many things , and gets into too much, He wants to be outside with nature, so he was "Booted out" after he knocked a vintage ceramic pumpkin off of a cabinet in the living room, I have no idea how he had the strength to do it, but it is now in too many pieces to fix. I really didnt want to do it, but it is time. I very worried Ill find him up in the Christmas tree this Holiday, or swinging from the garland on the fire place. I probably wont sleep tonight worrying about him outside, but sooner than later.

Now on to my pink!!
This past summer I was working on a new design for the stockings that I love to make more than anything, I stockpile the rest of the year, gearing up for STOCKING season. And this is what I came up with. Yes, there are Elf Stocking patterns , but this one is my own with my own twist on it. I wont have as many listed as I want because I am putting them in a boutique also. I hope you have a chance to get one, If your looking for a special color, just email me and Ill make one up for you .Or just go by my Ebay shop or Etsy Shop. You wont find them anywhere else, I made sure no one was making them like it. So for now you will only be able to get them from me, but you know how that goes. It wont be long before you see them all over the place :)
These are my shabby pinks "TWINKLE TOES"
