Happy Friday and Spring!

I hope that your week has been wonderful! I have been busy working on some baby shower gifts and a birthday gift, which I can't wait to share with you next week! The baby shower is tomorrow for a dear friend who is having a sweet girl expected to arrive in May. Yesterday, I finished all the gifts, and they are sweetly wrapped and ready for tomorrow! 

So, since I don't have any crafty photos to share, I thought it would be fun to share this darling vintage book to welcome spring in with you! I picked this up awhile back, and just fell in love with Butterball, that cute little chick! 

The Rand McNally & Company always has the sweetest books and illustrations!!

How adorable are all these sweet chicks!

Mother Hen has such a cute apron, with scallops and polka dots, oh my! 

And, the cutest of them all, Butterball hidden among the dandelions! I will let you enjoy the rest of the book! 

Well, I hope you enjoyed this darling little book! Wishing you all a beautiful and crafty weekend! 

an easter garland

Happy Monday!

I am so excited that it will officially be spring this week! And, I finished this little project just in time to welcome it in! 

I have been wanting to make a sweet spring and Easter garland ever since I saw this darling bunny garland from the most lovely and talented Sandra from Cherry Heart. She has such a beautiful blog, and I am always so inspired by her gorgeous creations! 

Then, I saw that Amy from NanaCompany also made an adorable spring garland, and they were both the sweetest to share their templates to make one, which you can find here and here! I loved them both, so I did a little combination!

I knew that I wanted to use some gingham for this project, so I took out some springy colors, along with my 30's Easter reproduction prints for the bunnies and eggs, and vintage eyelet lace to adorn the bottom of each piece. 

I added some hand stitching to each one, which always gives it such a sweet, handmade touch. It was such a fun little garland to make, and it has inspired some thinking for a summer garland with strawberries! We'll see what I come up with! 

With some little vintage wooden clothespins, it is hanging in my living room and ready to welcome spring in!! Thank you Sandra and Amy for sharing your darling templates and garlands!

Wishing you all a beautiful and creative week! 

wishes for a sweet weekend

Happy Friday!

I just wanted to wish you all a wonderful and creative weekend! It has been a busy, but lovely week. I was able to get some photos of my quilt, which I just need to upload and will be back on Monday to show you! I am already cuddling up with it, as it has been rainy and cold these past couple days! I am so looking forward to some of that sunny and warm springtime weather! Do you have any crafty plans this weekend?

♥A little something new in the shoppe! Made to order crocheted spring eggs! Some sweet pretties to bring a little spring into your home and perfect for Easter! You can visit my shoppe for more details!

Hope your day and weekend are beautiful! 

crocheted easter eggs

Happy Sweet Day!

Hope that you had a wonderful weekend and a great start to the week! Thank you for all your sweet comments on my "Bless our Home" embroidery!  

Well, over the weekend I had some fun crocheting Easter eggs! I found this lovely pattern, and choose some pastel woolie yarns, and sat outside crocheting, as the weather was so beautiful. 

I made two of each color, and for half I added some sweet felt flowers and leaves. Love how cute they came out! Just looking at them gets me so excited for springtime!

For the other the half, I plan on crocheting some little flowers and adding those on. I will have to show you when I finish. This was such a fun little project, and I am already envisioning baskets full of these pretties! 

  This beautiful vintage milk glass egg plate was a gift given to me by my grandmother. It is made by Anchor Hocking, and how lovely are those scallops. I am not a big fan of gold, but there is something about this combination that is gorgeous together! A sweet family heirloom to treasure! And, now I just need to make some yummy deviled eggs to serve on it.

I have finished my quilt, so hopefully the sun will be out for me to take some photos tomorrow! So, I will be back later in the week to show you! I look forward to seeing what crafty and pretty goodness you are working on!

Wishing you a most lovely and crafty week!
