Today I had great success at the thrift shop.I found the cutest light switch plate cover with an old button up shoe, pearls, a hat and a mirror on it. So cute I put it on as soon as I got home. It’s in the dgds room when they are move out that room will be my creativity room. I found a pattern for shoes for balloons, in a book I got there too and we made balloon people over the weekend, this was a blast! We have lost one of the shoes for dear grand daughter a with care bears on them. So we've been looking for it for the past few days with out success.
Dear hubby has been wearing his fish slippers whining about not being able to have nice weather on the weekends to go boating with. I still need to get fishing line on the new real on my new fishing pole I got for Christmas. I’ve graduated from small fish to med. sized fish and need to get 15 lb. test line on it. One time we were fishing and the only thing we caught was an old shoe! LOL!
I also found a shabby sheik bowl to hold fruits to paint for still life painting. Dear grandson found toy cars and motor cycles for him and his cousins to play with. I got some gold lame fabric pieces and tassels this will be great for gift bags or tying up gift with. An art book for dear grand daughters to do some fun art craft projects with.
A canister for oatmeal in the kitchen. Some pots for plants. First I’ll be painting on those, and a red table cloth, some dolls for dear grand daughters, play money, and a sketch book, I need to get that wrapped up.
Earlier in the week I found a purple velvet box for a God box, or to put writing prompts in, I also found a canister that’s got roses, I’m going to use this one for my prayer jar. I got a sports bag for dear son and a big platter for him to use for the meat for the wedding reception. They are getting ready to move and we have been collecting boxes.
I’m excited because I’m going to be getting my sewing / craft room back. Speaking of crafts I’m working on shelf making it look like a shabby sheik one I had to go to the store from some courser sand paper.
Things are pretty much on track for me here with undecorating and getting back on track with routines and stuff. I’ve been ill and had to take it easy less work of granny duty. The warmer weather is great for doing some stuff outside like walking. Birthday party at the bowling alley was a hit and they said they will be doing that again!
