Christmas Gift Bags


I love these Christmas gift bags. They are sturdy and I have green polka-dot and red snowflakes. The green is cute when you use pink lettering or even brown. The red bag is FABULOUS with black lettering! Of course they come with BLING!

Christmas Gift ideas




My friend, Kathy, ordered several items to be monogrammed for Christmas gifts. LOVE the red snowflake bag with her name on it and some BLING. The bag is $12 and you can add ANYTHING to it or carry it from place to place during the Christmas season! I also monogrammed a yellow polka-dotted lap top bag and a gold/black Christmas tea towel. Christmas tea towels are great gifts to get the season started!!!

All I want for Christmas....






All I want for Christmas .........
can fit in these bags!!! :) They are sooo cute! They are very sturdy/durable bags with custom creations on the outside. They are 3D flowers with BLING and a cross. I LOVE these! I have sold several of them. My favorite one is the black/white giraffe with aqua. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!! Very different!

I LOVE these Christmas Gift Bags


You probably can't tell, but this is an awesome Christmas gift bag! It comes monogrammed and blinged just waiting for you to fill it with goodies to give as Christmas gifts. I have 2 colors...the green polka dot and red with snowflakes. The green bag does not have to be necessarily for Christmas...It's awesome with a pink monogram. Too cute!

NEW! Christmas Tea Towels




I LOVE these newly designed tea towels! You will see this in my kitchen in a couple of weeks.

Christmas Barn Sale has another creator...


Laura Burton is also going to display her original Christmas Art hangings in my booth during the Christmas Barn Sale. I am so excited because her paintings are fun and whimsical and I can't wait for you to see them! They are fabulous! There will be 2-3 different paintings set up. If you see one that you like you may order it. Because it is a custom creation, YOUR name will be added to the picture.
What a great gift!

Christmas Barn Sale is coming.........


I can't believe it! Time flies when you are having fun. It seems like yesterday that I talked to Jodi Miller and she told me that I could be a part of the Christmas Barn Sale this year. Yea!

I have worked on sooo many different things that you will surely find something that you haven't seen before! This is just a sample! :)

Christmas in the Barn continued.....




I have steadily been working on MORE things for the Christmas Barn Sale! Whew! Am I tired, but I have had a blast creating! Here are more pics (closer up) that I would like to share with you that will be at the Barn Sale.


The baby burp cloth that you see with the "L" is ADORABLE!!! I can do any applique any letter and then monogram a name. Then I have other burp cloths that I can just monogram a name if you prefer.

YES! I love it! If you would have told me a year ago that I would've been quilting...I would have never guessed it. This is only 1 square of the Crazy Compass Quilt that I am participating in at Nimble Thimble. You can find the Crazy Compass pattern on the right hand side of my blog.

This tea towel came all the way from Canton. Laura bought it for a friend for her birthday. The monogram makes it personal!

Sewing With Christie

Sewing With Christie
I knew who Christie was because she is a Stampin Up! consultant and because her kids/my kids attend Grace Community. So, when I saw her at Nimble Thimble we became fast friends. Christie made this tea towel "Give A Hoot!" as one of her first creations at Art to Heart. I was extremely jealous because she did an awesome job! I've completed several little projects and hers still looked better than mine! :) Because Christie has helped me on so many projects, I monogrammed her towel for her. Loved it!

Emma's Pillowcase

Emma's Pillowcase
I wanted Emma to have something monogrammed since I monogrammed Anna's bag. Bayli and Blake picked out the fabric for her pillowcase. They wanted to capture the theme of soccer along with a fun and whimsical pattern.
