Holiday Decorating and M-C Courtly Check

These are glass ornaments I am painting for customers.

Real pumpkins I handpainted!

Love my pumpkins!

The candles are the LED ones...I used my art and created a scene....printed it on velumn and wrapped around the candle and tied with ribbon. This way I can interchange the scenes according to the holiday!

A lantern, I painted.

Love my pumpkins!! John thinks I'm crazy!!!

This is line art/watercolor I made..the date on it is 1983...found it in a folder the other day...it's always like Christmas at my house...I am always finding things I made or partially made... How fun!! I need to reframe it later....it's what I had on hand.

I love this time of year, even though it's still so hot here. I thought I would post some photos of what I have done so far for the fall season. It's not much, but I love it!!

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Just Had To Have These! Fantastic Bargain!!

Well, I went to Target to buy some garden stuff...left with these instead! Weren't my colors...had no clue what I would do with them....but had to have them! Why, you ask! ? There were 2 absolutely 2 great reasons why...according to moi!! First, they were on sale...sale....sale....sale....and on sale again! I couldn't resist the 25....50...75...75...75% off! I paid less than $3 each for $25 pillows!!! All with down filled inserts. Second, well, I can't buy down filled pillow inserts for that much at the fabric store! Let alone the beautiful fabrics (linen) and make them for that much!!

Turned out, when I got home...they did match..the darker pinks, look more red...(see the tablecloth I have next to them on the top photo)...so on my back porch they went ....at least for the summer...then, I will make some fallish ones and replace the covers. They have quickly become my favorite thing! At least for now. They also have a runner to match, but it wasn't on sale..still $17.99...so I will wait and watch for that baby!!
