Jumbo clothes pins


I made these at a class at one of my local Scrap stores. They are bigger than the ones you get at Michael's. We painted them, which I had not thought of doing before! I had only seen ones covered with decorative papers. The letters were painted and then glittered.
I wanted to add some ribbon when I got them home, but I showed them to my Mom as is and she wanted them! so I left them as is for now!

Pay it Forward winnings

I come across so many Awesome blogs from all the ladies over on SCS. I stumbled upon Nancyroo's on a day when she was doing a Pay it Forward treat. Well lucky me I was one of the 1st 3 people to respond and this is what she sent me. I can not tell you how awesome this was for me.! It has really motivated me to get back into my crafting!

Howling good time!

You Are a Werewolf

You're unpredictable, moody, and downright freaky.
You seem sweet and harmless, until you snap. Then you're a total monster.
Very few people can predict if you're going to be Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde.
But for you, all your transformations seem perfectly natural.

Your greatest power: Your ability to tap into nature

Your greatest weakness: Lack of self control

You play well with: Vampires
