New Etsy Stuff

So this is what I have been up to this week, (I have no laundry done!)
all this is now in my shop! My favorite is the dress and blanket. The dress because it looks so sweet on my lil Madeline, she wears vintage well. I like the fabrics together, I got enough fabric to sell a dress and make Molly and Maddie something too! I like the blanket because of the pintucks and the crochet work mmm..... It just makes me happy. I sometimes think I could have been born in the wrong decade....maybe even century....or maybe not I do so love indoor plumbing.. hmmm..I need to think about this a lil more.....plumbing is great.....ok so the wrong decade , thats the best of both worlds! plumbing and vintage right....but I like Internet too...I think its time for bed!.... night John boy!.... and Aunt Wendy!

Hi Samantha

Thanks for visiting my blog. You have your settings as non-reply, so I couldn't reply directly to your comment. You have very cute kids and Molly's coat is wonderful. Welcome to blogger-land.

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
