Hi.  Just found out that I sold two signs at the craft shop!  It feels wonderful!

I also decided to list a couple of them on eBay, just to see how that goes.  I wish I knew how to share a link to make it easy.  Until I figure that out, if you're interested, you can type in "Handmade Distressed Primitive Signs" and see if that gets you there. 

I can't wait til Spring vacation so that I can spend a few days in my cottage, not just a few hours!  Two weeks and counting.

Maple Fest Craft Fair



 Here I am at this past weekend's Maple Fest Craft Fair up in the "hilltowns".  It was a nice day spent with family and surrounded by maple syrup, fiddlers, hay rides, a woodstove, all the while sitting in an old schoolhouse.

It was a wonderful way to spend a Saturday!

Almost Ready to Sell!

Hi there.  I have finally uploaded about 20 more photos of signs I've recently completed.  I'm getting the prices and cost of shipping straightened out, and then I will post that information, as well as exact sizes and colors.  (This is taking so much longer than I thought!!)

In the meantime, if you see something you like in the slide show, feel free to email me and I'll get right back to you with size, color and price.

I'm doing one more little craft fair/maple fest this coming weekend, then I'm going to focus on this blog.  

Hope you're enjoying Spring wherever you are!

Vacation Success

Hi there.  Here's a sampling of what I accomplished this past week while home on vacation.  It feels so good!  I finished five more today, but didn't have my camera with me.  Oops.

Most of these are going to one of two fairs I'm doing locally...one on March 10th and the other on March 19th. 












This one is a custom order for a friend at school. I hope she likes it!  (it has since been distressed)  :)

Winter Vacation Has Arrived!

Hi.  Winter vacation has finally arrived and if all goes my way (she prayed), I will be spending serious time in my cottage, creating!

On tap are...two "Gathering Room" signs, two "Amazing Grace signs, and three "Celebrate Life" signs.  I also have two custom orders to start and I'm looking forward to every one of them.  :)

I'll be back later this week with photos to share.  Tally ho!

Finally finished these four signs today!  The two town signs are for one of the teachers at school who ordered one for herself before Christmas, then ordered two more for gifts.  One of the "Welcome Home" signs is for my daughter who's giving it as a gift, the other will be for sale.

Hopefully, tomorrow I can get started on the three new ones!

Hi friends.  Since I'm still working on getting this going, I thought I'd post a few photos of past projects.  Enjoy. :)
