Farmers Market

So today was the Farmers Market.  It was pretty fun!  Definitely a learning moment.  I found out that I need to have bigger and more onesies, people still like the bottle cap necklaces and none of the flowers sold......So I have my work cut out for me next week to make sure that my displays are up and that I have more shirts in different sizes.  So soon to come I will be making some 4th of July shirts, along with some cute boys ones.  Here's a hint, can we say "Mudd Buddies".

Here are some pics of my booth.  Let me know what you think.

PROVO'S FARMERS MARKET

So I am officially going to be at the Provo's Farmers market this Saturday!  NO MORE SLACKING ALLOWED!!!!!  hahahaha  I will allow no more excuses for myself not to be there.  So come check out  my crafter's ADD booth and check out everything that I have had so much fun making.  Not to mention saying Hi!  It's a pretty good time.  There are so many booths to look at and tons of food vendors. 

As a reminder 50% of my sales I am donating to my son, Ben's, Chemo treatments.


Here's to a great weekend and thanks for looking

Onesies

 So here I am again trying to be creative, I found an Idea for a flower watch that you first adhere iron on backing to fabric and then you can cut it on your cricut.  As you can see that is not the title of my post, so I obviously couldn't get it to look right.  However on a happy note, I have now figured out how to use my cricut to make applicate for clothes or bibs whatever you like!  I'm soooo excited about the possibilities!  In my boredom and trying to make sure that the materials I had just bought don't go to waist...I put together the following onesies.  I have been asked if I'm going to make them and offer them in the farmer's market.  What do you think? Would they sell?  Not to mention the fact that these are so cute to make for grand-babies.

Beach Baby!!!!!! $5.00

Blue Sunflower!!!!!! $5.00

Flower Clips and Headbands

Ok so I admit it I have crafters ADD.  I can never just stick to one thing, even though I continue on will everything I do.  I tend to add a million things into the full cycle of crafting.  I never thought I would be one of the people who would want to cover a little girls head in huge flowers, but again I have found so many patterns that I just can't help myself.  My poor granddaughter is going to be covered in flowers and tutu's when she is born in June. hahahahaha

  Any way I wanted to share what I have found by doing a simple internet search for fabric flowers you are directed to so many amazing blogs with directions.  I wish I would have wrote them down so that I could give these incredibly talented people the credit they deserve.  A mental note for next time.

these flowers measure about 3" diameter and can be used for so 

many things

silk flower hair clips

Orange and green headband

yellow head band.  I'm not sure what to name this flower.

Thanks for looking!  I have had a lot of fun with these and hope you do to.

Yard Sale Event!!!!!

Ok so the place that my adorable daughter works at is going to have a public yard sale and I am going to have a table there!  My first real sales event!  They have opened the sale to different people in the public so I'm going to assume that means there will be all sorts of things there to look at.  Anything from traditional yard sale items to handmade crafts like mine.  I'm so excited!

I almost forgot to mention that a large portion of the proceeds of what I sale will be going to help benefit my son Ben.  For those who don't know he is 20 years old and was diagnosed with stage IIa Testicular Cancer at the beginning of this month.  We have already had surgery and we will be starting his Chemotherapy treatments on May 2.  He has not been able to work and will not be able to go in much until this is all over.  He will have to go through 4, 3 week cycles of Chemo. So as a good mom, I am trying to use my talents to help raise money to cover his medical bills.  I will have most of my jewelry there for sale.

Come support an amazing place that helps so many people that need it.

So all of the info is as follows:
Place:

Trinity Mission Health and Rehab of Provo

Glass Jars

Who doesn't like cool funky glass jars? Especially when you get to decorate them and make them even cooler!  Ok at least I think they are pretty cool.


This first one I admit I used an SVG file from Michelle's adventures with digital creations blog.  I just fell in love with her garden fairy and had to figure out some way to use it.   




   Michelle's Adventures with Digital Creations.    

These cute little swirly birds I also found by following a link through Michelle's blog.  I love the files that people are willing to share with all of us beginners.  I can't wait until I can create my own to share as well.
















Here I have them both together. Pink and Purple go so well together, don't you think.



















Well I hope you all have enjoyed my spur of the moment craft idea.  I hope I have given a few more ideas as to what to do with some of the decorative glass hanging around your house.  That is assuming that there are more pack rats out there like me. (at least when it comes to random craft things)  Enjoy and thank you for looking.
