Tin Man Candy Dispenser

The Wizard of Oz has always been one of my favorite movies. 

Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, Glinda and the Wicked Witch. Who can forget? We become attached to all the characters in the film. (Well most of them anyway). These characters also make the best costumes for Halloween.  I wanted to take a little bit further with this original idea! Now is the time to head to Old Time Pottery to get your fall and Halloween supplies.



With the help of Old Time Pottery, I found some inexpensive supplies and made a Halloween Tin Man candy dispenser! This is better than the typical bowl. This is interactive! Head over there and check out how to do it!

Duluth Lifetime Leather Bag and Giveaway

There is never a dull moment around here! Although Dreamingincolor is keeping me very busy, I enjoy all the projects I get into. Working with paint and furniture leads to heavy loads and cumbersome packages. I am constantly unpacking, boxing things and moving them to my house and back again.

I have learned several tricks to make life easier. One I discovered is Duluth Trading Co. I have known about them for years but always thought of them as the place to get really good work clothes. I have several shirts from them and love the way they wear.



While attending Haven I was introduced to their leather work bags. Love the smell of leather! The Lifetime Leather Tote is one of the newest leather bags. I really hate saying they are just a work bag!! They are so beautiful they can easily be the bag you use everyday!

Dreamingincolor on TV


This has been one exciting week. For the first time, Dreamingincolor had a spot on TV! Talk of the Town to be exact. Yes, I just said that! This goes down as one of the cool things I have done as a blogger and store owner. Talk of the Town is a local show that does news, weather, and great demos on great topics. 

It was great meeting everyone that worked on the set. Lelan Statom is the weatherman. I know Lelan from way back when I taught Forensics (Speech and Debate). He was a judge for one of the other schools. His daughter used to compete. He was always kind and had the best personality. It was so good to see him again after all these years.

Meryll Rose is the host. She was the person I had most of my time with. She is sweet and gracious. What I noticed most was how comfortable she was with everyone and how she made us feel the same way. It's no wonder it is the top show both local and syndicated.



I got 4 minutes of time to show my Dorm Decor. It went by sooo fast!!
I was so excited to be able to use my signature color "Dreamingincolor" on the program. I demonstrated how to paint a chevron pattern, just like my post for Old Time Pottery.
