KEWL BEANZ! Then I will work on this If I can I will try and get some names on the cover..I thought FairyTale Times was cute.. My newsletter is called The Enchanting Times..so I will see what I can do

Those little books sounds really neat I cannot wait to go craft shopping once all the Holiday Hooplah is over...hehehe

i finished these a while ago but was waiting for the accessories to get here to post a pic.



The little mats are clay, and the sand is "sandy" with embossing powder. I will include afew umbrellas because they break easily (and because I had to buy 144 of them in a package, lol). The fish are tiny glass fish and real tiny shells.



Sorry about all the dancing cukes ... Holden is on my lap laughing hysterically at them!

Dear Mom and Dad- I may parent differently than you did. This does not mean that I think you did it "wrong." However, it also does not mean I am doing it wrong.

I'm going to need to drop out of this one. I have a lot of things going on this month- more than planned and I just can't do it all. I'll offer up my spot on the crafting board....

It is kind of fun and frustrating at the same time to work on new things!! My picnic baskets have taken all forms and most of them not so great!! I am working on crochet right now with hemp/wool yarn I got from a co-op. Glad to get to use it cause I ain't doin no knittin right now, that's fer sure!!! I am all for sand castles too!!
