Caution! Crafter at Work!

Or at least preparing to work!  After many weekends of painting my space it is ready for moving in all "the stuff".  How many hobbies can one woman have?  Plenty!  I am so over the moon with my new space and love how it looks out at Mt Baker.  I am still organizing but here is the finished paint job!  Whew!  (I am still painting other rooms)

Here is what you see first when you walk in.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year family and friends!  I found an old New Years photo from 8 years ago when my grand children were much younger.  What a fun walk down memory lane. Blessings to you all this new year!! 

P.S. I will try to post a current one tomorrow when we are all together.

SNOW!!!

This is the most snow I have seen in many years and right at Christmas time!  It is so quiet and peaceful to walk at night and look at the stars (when they are out).  Thadius had so much fun building a snowman and creating a fort which strangly resembles Club Penguin website for those of you familiar with that.  He and Stevie spend a lot of time at that site.   I am off today!!!  Hooray!!!  I am going to clean my craft room and get it ready for New Year projects.  I have one in mind and will post it when finished.

Unto Us A Savior is Born

Merry Christmas to all my family and friends!  This year I made every one in the family a shadow box with a Christmas scene.  This one is mine and I am so thrilled at how it turned out.   May the Christ child shine brightly on your holiday and all the days that follow.

Christmas Blessings to you, Betty Mae

Merry Christmas Family and Friends

Well another Christmas is soon to arrive and we are in full swing here with Christmas preparations.   Here is what I have been working on for my grandchildren.   They are so magical and fun to do.   Hope you enjoy them.  I will be posting mine on Christmas Day!  It is my favorite one too!  So visit me on Christmas Day and you will see the best one!

Here is an additional box I did for a girlfriend that had a really cool photo of her daughter with Santa about 20 years ago.   This was a fun technique to print onto canvas!
