Spring Candle Holders

It's a snowy, icy day today.
Although, it's pretty to look at,
I won't be driving in it.
Guess I'll spend my day creating!
Maybe I'll practice my crochet, still trying to get that right.

Anyway, I wanted to show you a couple of candle holders I made for the screened porch.
Yes, spring is on my mind.
I found a few extra terra cotta pots, so I decided to give them a quick coat of white paint.
Then, I sanded a bit off-for that worn look.
I had a stencil from another project, so I tried the pattern on the pots.
Love the turquoise-one of my favorite colors.

Pretty and very simple to make.


Can't wait to set these out on a nice spring evening.

Well, in the mean time I think I'll make a cup of tea
and try to crochet an infinity scarf.
Maybe my daughter will join me since school was dismissed early.
She's always loaded down with homework and college applications,
hopefully she will take a little break to relax.

What are you creating these days?

It's 17 Degrees Today

I'd rather be at the beach!


What's the weather like where you are?
Hope you're staying warm!
I hate to say it, but-"I can't wait for spring!"

A New Year


Happy New Year!
Hope the new year is starting off well for you.

Where has the time gone?
My last post was about a month ago.
I guess I got caught up in the holidays, decorating, baking, shopping-
then it was over and time to take down the decorations,
throw away those extra cookies, candies, etc., etc.

I think I need to put myself on a schedule this year.
Do you have a specific blogging schedule? 

Even though I haven't posted in a while,
I have been doing a little creating.


Something sweet and simple.


Something dressy.

 Something fun that adds a Pop! of color.


What have you been up too?

Have a great weekend!
