What's Yours?

Alama Mater, that is?

I've been working on some new
things for my little shop/side-biz.
Being in the heart of NC, having two college
educated daughters and my fair share
of college logo-ed s.t.u.f.f.,
I know college logo-ed gifts
are "in demand"!
I wanted to try my hand at
creating something new to meet
the demand and hopefully
give my craft business a boost as well.
I like the way they turned out
but of course the real test is,
will people buy them?

I made this...


 from this


and also these three




this one in the works


And three more on the drawing board.

Wish me luck! I'm trying so hard
to get this craft business off the ground.
It has not been easy lately with so
much "life" and work to contend with as well.

Memorial Day Tablescape

Finally!
 After wanting to do a Memorial Day tablescape
all week, I had time this morning to pull it together.
As is usually the case, just in time for the actual "day".
Such is life, busy life!



Sans utensils


I've always loved the red, white and blue color combo.


Placemats from the Dollar store



Flowers also from the Dollar store




Tea stained flags








Candle buckets from the Dollar spot at Target



Happy Memorial Day!
Hubby is taking me out to the ball game today!
