    Coupon caddy

    My old plastic accordion coupon file just wasn’t working for me anymore.

    This tin had sat in an un-altered state for a couple years then with the Alcohol Inks in a haphazard ugly fashion for at least another year.

    I was finally inspired enough to do something about the eyesore.

    I think it turned out really cute. Just because it’s utilitarian doesn’t mean it has to be boring.

    On the 4th day of Christmas ornaments

    I’d like to share with you….

    a favorite from my childhood days.

    My mom made this one from a kit. My daughter fell in love with it this summer while going through the Christmas boxes from my folks house. I knew then and there it was a keeper!

    On the 3rd day of Chirstmas ornaments


    I’d like to show to you….

    an ornament I painted to celebrate our new white kitten. We got her a couple months after we got married. A short time later we discovered that she was deaf. Her name was Scooter even though she never knew it. She was my baby…I took her everywhere! Seriously! I remember taking her to DQ and sharing an ice cream with her…in the car, of course.
