Well, y'all know I'm a little slow so it won't surprise ya when I tell ya that it finally came to me to wrap the top of my crock with my burlap bag I won in a giveaway. I love all the new burlap home decor on etsy. It's on my wish list! All decorated with a little help from my friends.Tim is still working at moving his power tools and such to the basement. This farmhouse cabinet is the first wood craft made in the new wood shop.
Coming in at a close second is this book rack for a customer. I'm also working on a black double spice cubby cabinet for a customer.
Then I was using the other side of my brain and did some more creating of two whale tail candle boards, a Christmas plaque, and three more rolling pin sleeves.
What ya think? Are they worthy of adorning someone's primitive home?
I've been admiring all you gal's homes all decked out for the holiday. I love love love Robyn of Primlish's new bowl keep and what she did to embellish it, and her frames. Yes, I want one now!
But, i'm still in line waiting for hubby to make me a basket rack, but in the meantime, I made my own makeshift hanger for a few old baskets I have using an old Christmas garland vine thingy. Not too bad, I like it :o)
Uh oh, yep, I gifted myself with these two hog scrapers I bought from Jodi of JoJosPonderings on etsy. They're the real deal too! I love 'em! Oh, and hubby even put some garland and twinkly lights on the front porch! I think he found them when he was cleaning out the garage... lol.
Christmas Cheer y'all!
