Succulent Terrarium

Memorial Day is this weekend and people will be gathered with friends and families. Lots of BBQ and decorating happening. All to celebrate our soldiers that fought and died for our country.

 All the more to do something in honor of this celebration. Last year I created buntings with material I found at Old Time Pottery for the porch. This year, I had an idea to create something that can be used way after the weekend is over.

A Patriotic Succulent Terrarium.

I created this with some Old Time Pottery supplies. You can too! It is something you can all year long.

Head over to Old Time Pottery for complete instructions.

Happy Memorial Day!

Lace, Trim, Pearls and Fabric Flag

Three cheers for the red, white and blue! July 4th, Independence Day! 

It is right around the corner!

Lots of Booms and Sparkles!

The day we celebrate freedom!

Freedom isn't free ..... as they say.

A lot have sacrificed for us and I hope people remember that.

That is why I always hang a flag somewhere to remind me how important that word is and how blessed I am living in the USA.

I love all the beautiful countries out there and I love some of their flags too. But I am an American, and I celebrate that fact.

So today as I was stumbling in my craft room picking up scraps of things. I decided to create this Lace, Trim, Pearls and Fabric Flag.

The last time I made a flag was my when I made my paint stick flag. I wanted to do something different. So I started with all my trim scraps!

Sometimes Old is New Again

Just when you think something is old it shows up again. I was excited to see my paint stick flag featured at

Design. Dining, and Diapers

She featured several projects that were done with paint sticks. I forgot what it was like to be featured. It has been awhile. I like it!!

If you have time go check them out!
