Some of my craftshow Finds!!

A Team Edward wooden block, which
is pretty cute, with an apple on top!















Cute aged bottles

I found under $5
Looks easy to make

The 1st label says
"Jolly Jacks Elixir:
cures what scares you"

The 2nd label says
"Bottle of Blessings:
Apply generously
May the bounty of
the season fill your
heart and your home"

These super cute necklaces were all over the fairgrounds!
Little glass baubles, soldered together with images in the
middle. I'd love to learn how to solder jewelry.
And domino pendants were every. You could see everyone
had a different style of their own. I'm going to play with these
ideas and put my own flair on it.
The front . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The back













This was a soldered necklace
I fell in love with! The front
says "Love is kinda crazy" &
back "with a girl like me"
with cute little '50s sexy witch.





Every other square
is a heart or zeta crown

An outdoors wall hanging that I love!!!

A knitted snowmen...






There were tons and tons of ornaments, angels and reindeer
made of bells, snow covered typography, twinkle light bottles, antique looking ornaments

Arkansas in the Fall

October is apparently a great Craft Show month! And Arkansas is apparently the mecca of Craft Shows. So my Big Sis and I had a roadtrip to Arkansas for a long weekend to visit with our good friend and craft show extraordinaire, and go craft show shoppin!

Driving through Arkansas, we drove passed the most beautiful scenery! The trees were burnt oranges, golden yellows, and bright reds! The views were breathtaking, and who would've thought? I don't normally think of Arkansas as "beautiful" but it was!

On the way to one of the shows, we drove over this lake, and it was stunning with houses on the cliff and miles of water and I'm not even an outdoorsy person!

Our friend Sarah gets to drink a cup o' joe and look at this view every day! Her back porch is high up, looking down into her own little forest! I'm jealous! :)

The War Eagle craft show was like being on the set of "Sweet Home Alabama." And it was huge! They estimated 180,000 ppl over the weekend. With friendly people, funnel cakes, and super cute holiday crafts, I was in heaven!
