As time draws closer I have gathered my crafts and gifts. To see what all I have and to see what all I have to get done before the sale. These are some pictures of my crafts only. I am on the Primitive side I like taking older things and give them a new purpose.
This is an old Rod Iron type basket left primitive in color. Filled with large Vanilla candle greenery with purples and silver along with a little frosted glitter to look like snow.
The antique oil lamp has been converted to a small electric candle in the OLD oil lamp. The bird is signing in the cage and chalk boards are ready for messages.
The black old lantern has been arranged for a center piece on a table. It has a little tee lite in the center and no cord. The bottom is removable for a year around arrangement. The Silver old lantern has a flicker electric candle and red berries. I have several wood Snowman and Santa's, a few large rusty bells. Little wood buckets and rusty scoops filled with greenery and candles. These again are only my crafts there will be much, much more that day. 
Pam and Linda discuss what their next move is. Their years of experience has taught them discuss before your cut. Vickie doesn't iron anything except material that has to do with quilting.
Teri worked very hard on her mystery quilt. All of this was put together in one night!!
Julie cuts many pieces with accuracy. And then sew all the pieces together later.
Teri lives in a house FULL of guys and they think this quilt top is to much girl for their master bed room. I told her a little pink is good for everyone. Teri put this all together in one weekend too. Vickie put together 2 quilt tops in one weekend. She was a sewin' gal !!
The herbs are grown for cooking such as Parsley, Rose Mary, Fennel, Sage, Basil, Oregano, Chives and more. I freeze my herbs for winter use, so I can use my herbs all year long.
