Craft Show


This is one view of my table at the craft show today.


Another picture of my table.


And yet another view of my table.


This is my friend Laurie's.



My friend Rufina's table.


Some of Rufina's snowmen, out of yarn.


Another friend, Carrie and Judi's table. They have such cute ornaments.


One of Judi's snowmen. They are so darn cute. It is very hard to try to sell our crafts in Lancaster county, because it is a very primitive and country county. I don't think shabby chic has a place here yet. But I didn't do to bad. And the people seemed to like it, so not sure what to think.

Christmas decorating pictures of my home


This is a close up of one of the snowmen on my tree. I used all shabby snowmen on the tree this year. Because I wanted to use the script ribbon, which I never use ribbon on my tree, but I loved this ribbon.

This is another picture of the tree with snowmen and ice skates.


My alpine tree in the corner, is also shabby this year. Lots of pink and lace.


A close up of some of the things that are on the tree.


This is my antique birdcage decorated. There is a white bird on top and one in the cage.


This is another birdcage decorated.



This is a beautiful velvet poinsettia, that I used for my tie backs on my curtains. I bought some of these at the end of last year, when they went on sale. I just thought they were beautiful. They are a deep mauve color with some gold.


Another close up of my tree with the snowmen. The mittens were my daughters when she was little.

Altered ice skate's


These are my ice skates that I altered for Christmas. I got them free at a yard sale this summer.I glittered them and added lace to the tops and hung them on my porch with some pine branches.

Shabby chic watering can


I bought this watering can at the thrift store, I painted it pink and antiqued it. Then I started to decorate it. I added the vintage looking silver pick and a pink rose with glitter on it. I added a bird and some feathers, balls, and ice skates and of course a lace doily. And there is the finished product.
