All of the planets lined up and I was able to collage this morning!
Last night I dyed the ribbon and could not wait to use it on something.
I laid the gauze over the photo and sewed and sewed,
then I snipped around the photo so she could peek through.
Then as I looked over the table to find something for the bottom of the piece
my eyes wandered over to the wax paper that I used for the ribbon dyeing.
WAALAA a pocket, I stitched it to a doily that I sprayed with a little
glimmer mist and then I tucked a few special items into the pocket.
A vintage monopoly card-Indiana Avenue, a snippet of receipt paper,
the definition of lady and a metal V...
I'm naming her Violet.
A scrap of blue fabric tape measure topped with an old key and a
silver bird hanging from a little hook that I fashioned from a bit of wire.
WOW that felt good!
I have also made us a batch of body wash...
thank you Pinterest
So now we have a whole lot of wonderful smelling soap!
I didn't use Mrs. Meyers, I used a vegetable based lavender soap
and then I added a little lavender essential oil to it.
It is marvelous and just look how much money I'm saving!
I just love that part! ;)
So if you too would like to save some of your hard earned dollarinoes
then go check this out! It really is very easy to make, I promise!
I took a ton of pictures this morning while the sun was shining, of all of the goodness
that I am listing in my etsy tonight. I will be having a Black Friday and Cyber Monday
Extravaganza at The Old White House and I would love it if you stopped by!
Lots of deals to be had... take that Wally World!

at the show last week I traded with my friend Debby ~ a beautiful poinsettia for a couple of
my Santa ornaments. I'm hoping she will enjoy the ornaments as much as I am enjoying my
