Okay, now we got something to talk about...

We've hit the big times here!  Jody forgot but I remembered that someone from Flea Market Style came to our annual Strawberry Days which is our version of a flea market.  We rent out spaces outside all around our shop.  Every so often, since June, I would look around and wonder when the next issue of FMS was coming out.  The woman made it seem like we were going to be in the magazine.  So, this morning when I opened my email, there was an email from Jody saying that we had made the magazine and that it was out.  It took the third try for me to find it but, find it I did!  And there we were...

...you can click on the above photo to see it larger and look at #9~that's us!!!!  It's so fun to be on the map~we are the only ones in Maryland listed!  Yep, we are all goofy over it.

I threw in the rest of them just to show all.
From a magazine that gives us photos like the one above.  Run, don't walk, to your local magazine stand and get it.  Take a ten-spot plus tax, nope, it's not cheap.

And just to make sure y'all understand that I may not have been leaving the house much but I have been "working".  Yes, the laundry is done, dinner is on the table more nights than not, clean sheets and towels, bathrooms not quite ready to be cleaned again, so guilt free "work".  Above wreath is made with all paper flowers and shreds.
Made a few tin vignettes and candles on stands.

One of the cute candle holders that sits on a stand.  I forgot to undo the fancy "do" that I did fooling around with my new photo stuff.

A tin and a candle...girly. 

As I was packing up several dollhouse windows and doors to ship to a woman who bought them from me on Etsy, I thought of this idea to do with them.  I think it might be an original idea.  I got the ATC's from a fellow on eBay, love them, and I like how they came out.

A little close up...

...another close up.  Well, I feel better about updating my blog again~I'd been getting some crap but I was waiting for purty pictures like these.  Thanks for looking.


P.S. Oops, forgot to add the photo of my inner Debrina Pratt:
