I started baking again...

 I got the creative urge to make some gift tags . It's one of my favorite things to do. I coffee stained the tags first and baked them. Once again my poor kids came running down the stairs asking what I was baking and I had to tell them paper! It does kinda smell like coffee cake though. Ha! Anyhoo..I then decorated them like so. I plan to give them away as gifts and as extra goodies for customers. They are fun and unique! I have a lot of respect for those who make and sell gift tags. A lot of time and thought goes into them and to me they are extra special! I'm planning on actually baking something real to eat for tomorrow...Ha! Stay tuned!
Have a fabulous day!

It's that time of year.....

 The Fall! Just about here! The crisp air and the falling leaves. My favorite time. I love the beauty of the changing of the seasons and all the Fall festivities. With Halloween around the corner and all the decorations it brings  excitement to me. I happened to stumble across this shop on Etsy and thought I would share these beautiful nature inspired masks! I think they are spectacular and perfect for Halloween!
These can be found at..

Oh Happy Day!

Well how about Oh Happy Week! I made this treasury yesterday on Etsy. It was Monday and I snagged it at the last minute and had to come up with a title and theme all at once! Anyways...I thought "let's be happy today"! The first thing I thought of was the color yellow. Then I thought of my friend's beautiful vintage yellow brooch to start my theme! My friend is Barbara @

http://www.southernladysvintage.etsy.com/ ! She is always helping me with my computer issues and helped me post this on my blog! Thanks Barbara! We also have fun chatting in the forums on Etsy! A lot of these artists in this treasury are from the cottage style street team to which I belong .Well I 've been busy ! Kids back in school and I'm driving them around here and there!The schools have all these functions I need to attend to too! I've been crafting away making new tags. I'm having fun with that! The leaves are actually falling here! My inspiration for these tags....

I call them falling Leaves tags! How appropriate don't ya think? I will be posting them today on Etsy! Well here's to wishing you all a Happy week!
