Art Journal


Hey Y'all how are you today?
I am worn out here today, I have been working nights since Sunday setting up the toy department for the holidays and my hiney is whipped...lol 1 more night to go! Hopefully we will be 100% finished tonight and only 1 day over the schedule for getting it done.
OK!
So about 2 weeks ago the amazing Jenny and Aaron at Everyday Is A Holiday announced that they were offering a FREE Art Journal Class!
I seriously love those 2 and I jumped at the chance to learn from them.
For some reason I have yet to figure out, the idea of creating an art journal has intimidated me for a LONG time. I have had a composition book and a sketch book I have picked up and put down more times than I can count, every time I go to start, I get all nervous and can't do it. CRAZY! SO
when they offered to teach I said count me in.
So here are my first pages.



Today is class number 2, I will either be asleep or at work when today's class gets posted, so tomorrow I will be playing at my crafty desk!
Thanks So Much Jenny and Aaron!

Woolzies!

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners. Unlike the plastic dryer balls, they are PVC free and won't fall apart or melt on you. Woolzies save time and energy by cutting down on drying time by an average of 25% per load. They also help reduce static and wrinkles. Use Woolzies to snuggle up with naturally downy soft laundry that's completely free of harmful chemicals.  Woolzies are also hypo-allergenic and totally safe for people with wool sensitivities as...

Ho Ho Ho **Gift for you

Merry Christmas Y'all. Yes I say Merry Christmas! I keep Christ in  Christmas because it matters to me. I was at a craft show recently and at one of the booth's I wished the vendor a Merry Christmas, he said Thank You and then said "I don't say anything anymore, you never know what people believe and I don't want to offend anyone" OK I get that, he is a businessman....however;  I replied...."I say Merry Christmas because it is what I believe" he said huh... I have never thought of it that way before... I work for the "worlds largest retailer" and I say Merry Christmas all season long, In all of the 23 years I have worked in retail, no one has ever said "don't say that to me" actually most people are kind of surprised to hear it if I judge by the look on their faces and most reply Merry Christmas to you too. So try it on for size, the next time you are out, wish the people in your path a Merry Christmas, I bet it will make...
