Curtain Fabric Finds

I found a great deal recently on fabric. I spend only 60 bucks and bought 20 yards of home decor fabric.

Compared to Joann's prices that is a savings of 440$. Blogged here: one-happy-homemaker.html

A New Home! :)

Lily wanted to let everybody know that we got the house! :) After almost a week of waiting for the results we found out the owner chose us over the other applicants! So very excited!!!! :)

The great thing is it will only take 7 min. for Harrison to get to work. He never has to get on the freeway to get to work again! So cool! :) Although it is dangerously a close walk to Taco Bell fountain drinks AND Starbucks! hehe.....perfect for the stay at home wife with no car. :) *maniacal laughing*

Also, it will be only 2 minute drive to my quilting group when they move to their new building. :) Thanks to everyone who prayed! :) We are so happy to be moving into a house!

New Home? Yippee!

It has been a long time since I blogged here. These past 3 months have been very hard on me. Filled with unending jaw/teeth problems that most likely wont be fixed for a while. I am slowly learning to wait on God's timing. Constant pain is not my cup of tea, but I am learning to cope with my constant bite changes and TMJ pain. My jaw has decided to have a mind of its own. :P

There is great news though! I love good news! We could possibly be moving soon! Into a house! wooohoo! So excited. We are taking a second look at it today and turning in our application. SO, if all goes well, we will be moving October 1st!

I have been in so much pain lately that going on the computer is exhausting, which unfortunately has been affecting my crafting. So all my crafts have been mindless crocheting. :) Which I love!

Papa and the Ducks

For all of you Gleaner Readers:

Here is the video I made of: Papa and the Ducks. Sorry for the poor youtube quality. The quality lessened when I uploaded the video.

Enjoy!

Seaside Bliss

This past weekend Harrison and I went to a family getaway. Harrison's side of the family rented a nice house near Jenner, CA on the coast. It was beautiful there. Our bedroom had double doors that opened to a view of the sea. It was really breathtaking.

Of course, I HAD to bring some crafts. So I decided my Granny Ripple would be the perfect craft to enjoy by the sea. :) The pattern even looks like the sea with all the wave like ripples.

Below is the view from our room.

The ocean is my favorite place to be. I just love the Coast of Northern California. It really was beautiful.

Monday, Monday

Monday is finally here. I am so happy last week has come and gone. I am praying this week holds lots of dental relief and crafty fun! :) Finally able to get my retainers adjusted, I have now entered into the stage of more waiting as the head pain slowly decreases.

Being the craft addict that I am, I have begun to dabble in jewelry making! I have already made 2 necklaces. One for me and one to sell! I even wore mine to church yesterday! So excited, will have necklace pictures soon. But for now, I wanted to share some other pictures of my newest flea market find! Posted.... Here....

I hope everybody has a lovely Monday and a week full of happiness.

Artfire Fun and Dental Woes!

I cant believe how long it has been since I have blogged! This past month has been wild! I have been dealing with a lot of dental issues that have affected my jaw and my retainers. I think my TMJ is coming back which I am hoping the orthodontist can help me with this friday. It seems like trials have been coming my way.... But in the midst of trials there is always a glimmer of hope. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel. I cant wait!

I have been trying to keep myself busy with lots and lots of crafting! :) I am so excited because I finally have items in my Artfire Shop! In fact, I listed a Susan Branch Pincushion just last night and already sold it! I will have more Jello Mold Pincushions coming soon to my store. I also added a variety of beaded stitch markers for those knitters out there! Check out my pictures below and go check out my new Shop! :)

I also was FINALLY able to go to Room With A Past this month. I found some great treasures to spice up my craft room! Cant wait to share pictures of those! :)

Did I mention I am donated a set of stitch markers to a giveaway? Check out BekahJan.com for details! :)

Colorful Bobbins!

So excited about my recent craft! Go check it out at: BekahJan.com! These Embroidery Bobbins were so fun to make! They were so easy too! I found this great idea from Heather Bailey! I even used her fabric as background for my pictures! :)
