When the Garden Dies...

When the weather turns cold and my gardens are shriveled and brown, my hands turn to crafting instead of digging, pruning and watering.

Over the past month I have done a few projects here and there and I have a few more I really would like to accomplish, but so far this is what I've done...

~A poofy, variegated tutu for Lauren.

~A couple more little boy ear flap hats, Christmas stars (you can find the pattern here), crochet flowers to decorate my bulletin board (find pattern here), and a mug cozy for my endless cups of tea and coffee!

~And finally I got around to covering the lampshades in my bedroom.  They were in desperate need of a pick me up!

Now, its on to a few more crochet projects, another covering of a much needed object and finishing of a couple projects I started last spring!

*Thank you so much for the comments you left for me.  I am feeling much better.

  2. Jenny, I love the lamp shade redo. It looks so elegant with the new look. Did you use paper or fabric for this? Very nice!

  3. Tracie, I used a cotton fabric and satin ribbon to recover this. I was really pleased how it turned out. It is much better than the plain/old lamp shade.

    I have enjoyed my "catch up" visit here...you have blessed me with your devotional thoughts as well. God is SO WONDERFUL!! Isn't His WORD a delight?? I'm particularly fond of Psalm 91...blessings upon blessings!
