A Banner Week


Aren't these birds cute? My daughter helped me make these glittery birds to hang around the house and on the tree for the holidays. She enjoyed it as much as I did!

So, I had to check in because things have really been looking up for me this week! First - I got some really great news. Something I have wanted for a very long time - I was chosen to be a member on the Say It With Letters Design Team! Deb has an amazing product and I am so honored to help spread the good word about her creative alterable letters and shapes! The Design Team has already been assigned their first project and I'll post a sneak peek of mine very soon! Here's a picture of the illustrious Deb and hubby Steven, working hard at their home show last weekend.

Then my sister and I met with the very nice, Dee, over at Village Greenhouse in Henniker. If you're local, you should definitely check out her store. Not only does she sell beautiful holiday wreaths and plants, but she's also opened up consignment space for crafters! Here's some of my signs and wares for sale.


And then, if that weren't enough - over Thanksgiving my Mom, Dad and sister surprised me with gifts for an early birthday celebration! My Mom and Dad gave me a Mary Englebright crafting book and my sister gave me this beautiful birdhouse! Isn't it to die for? I have always wanted one. And it's huge! Thank you, Lisa, Mom and Dad! What a surprise!

Oh - and before I forget - my group TRINKETS is doing a show this Saturday at the St. Theresa's Church from 9 - 3 in Henniker, NH if you're in the area. Stop on by and say hello to us and do some holiday shopping! :)
