Double Duty Tags

Brrrrrr....it's COLD outside around here. I hope you are keeping warm and sipping your hot chocolate with your elves. I made a few simple tags this week. I'll have glitter around here for months to prove it too. These are so simple and fun with so much impact. Beware that Merry Christmas is a long group of letters.
But the bonus to Merry Christmas is that on the REVERSE side, it can say HAPPY FALL YALL!

I am all about making a decoration multi use and this one works for me. Hope it works for my fav S-I-L.

Happy Crafting Gals!!

Long road home

Well, this pic sums it up!! I saw tons of asphalt and center stripes, but they all led me to my beloved home.

I LOVE the Smokey Mountains. The air, the trees, the flora and fauna, the TREES, mountains and the variety of trees!! I am from a tree and mountain-deprived part of the country and I just soak up all of God's gifts sprounting from the earth. I get recharged when I travel this part of the country.

I get home and feel fall in the air. Love this time of year. Cool breezes and pumpkins and rich colors everywhere. I am getting started on my fall decorating....

My Motto....If it weren't for the last minute, nothing would get done.

Get up and get a project finished today and check it off your list!!

Paintin gourds

In our part of Texas, you can feel the cool fall approaching. The temps are staying below 100 and there is a hint of cool. I suspect that may be the air conditioning whooshing through the front door to the porch, but that's beside the point. It's still coolness upon our sweaty brow.
We tested our gourd-growing abilities and met with some amount of success. I have been paintin up some of them. I love the fall and halloween and I am trying to get a few gourds slapped with color. Every year at this time, I get to planning my annual Halloween Party. Now, you must know that I have yet to actually have this party. But, I still add to the plans and anticipate the day I will be able to put this baby together. I want some of these cutie gourds around the place. I just am so busy in the fall and time gets away and then Christmas is barking at my door!!! I am making plans anyway and imagine all the great fun I shall have.
Here is scary pumpkin and he is wondering where that ghost went. I am going to see how Chester Cat will be at posing with some of these pieces and will post soon. I may put some of these on Etsy or just email to purchase.
Enjoy the day and just plan a party and all the guests and laughter.
