Fun Things

Some happy things to share:

1 & 2) Bagette Ingeborg sent me (and my family) a super fun package from Holland. These were the cute things in mine: 2 tree ornaments, the windmill one is a replica of the windmill Big Girl and I went to in the town of Ruulo. (that's me working the windmill in photo 2, ha ha), some sewing machine paper clips (too cute!) and a lovely zip bag made by the even lovelier Ingeborg ❤️ðŸĨ°ðŸ’ðŸ‡ģðŸ‡ą

3) Some special order pouches for friends who play Mahjong and Ski 😊❄️





Photo Finish Friday

I took this photo while walking back from the mailbox this week. See Orion? It almost looks like a painting. Have a relaxing weekend. We are looking forward to dinner with friends tonight. Cheers—Teresa ❤️💕 ⭐️ 🌟 🌌 


Planty Plants

It may be cold outside, but my inside plants are quite happy:

1) Schefflera is in full bloom (even though they are not supposed to bloom in houses, ha!)
2) One of my zygocacti is boasting both red and white blooms
3) I finally got a Chinese money plant from a neighbor, I loved Bagette Ingeborg's in Holland
4) Hubby got me a snake plant for my birthday and I love it!
5) Agnes is showing off…again
6) One of my orchids with 8 (yes, 8!) blooms…squeeee!

Hope you are keeping warm. XOXO--Teresa ðŸŒŋðŸƒðŸŒąðŸŽðŸŠī






 

St. Patrick's Banner on Etsy!

Hey lovely people, I took your advice and put my St. Patrick's Day banner in my etsy shop! I have 4 of them for sale and you even get to choose the color of ribbon you like. They are so festive and include little metal shamrock charms.  I'd love for you to have one! 😊 Teresa ☘️ðŸ‡Ū🇊☘️ðŸ‡Ū🇊






Hairbrush

It was my birthday over the weekend and I asked for a hairbrush. As you can see, a new one was necessary. I think I've had the old one for 20+ years. The plastic part has holes and the bristles were coming off when I was using it. Ha. I'm happy to report, I used the new one last night and it was glorious! 😀 I really love this brush (I have the smaller size one in my suitcase for travel) and am glad Aveda is still making it! Cheers--Teresa ❤️




Photo Finish Friday

We have had snow almost every night this past week. Some mornings, I have woken up to a dusting of sugar on everything, other mornings a few inches. This morning it was a 15 inch blanket of pure white. Tennis was canceled so I helped hubby dig out the driveway instead. I also spent the afternoon making some LUCKY ðŸ‡Ū🇊 ☘️ banners to put in my etsy shop, thanks for all the feedback. 😍 I hope for you a lovely weekend of fun and warmth. XOXO--Teresa 😀❄️🏔️

 

Banners

My friend Sheila was over a few days before Valentine's and asked if I could make her some holiday banners like the one I had on my fireplace (photo number 4). Since she is also Irish, she wanted a St. Pat's one as well. I had lots of fun making 2 for her, Valentine (photos 1 & 2), St. Pat's (photos 3 & 4). I have also included my St. Pat's, Easter and Halloween ones I have made over the years. I'm thinking I need a July 4th one as fall/autumn/Thanksgiving. I'm also contemplating adding these to my etsy shop. Thoughts? XOXO--Teresa

Best wishes for a wonderful weekend. I have been a bit under the weather so have been trying to take things slow. I hope you had a lovely Valentines Day! XOXO--Teresa ❤️😍ðŸĨ°ðŸ’–💝 


UPDATE: Bozeman, MT Chapter

Wowza! Bagette Elizabeth is sure doing her part to get Bozeman to use fabric bags. Look at all these great ones. She has made so many since beginning this chapter last summer. Way to go Elizabeth! Keep up the amazing sewing--Teresa

*******************************************************************************

Teresa--

This is 110 bags ready to go! I have been busy sewing over 150 bags this month for the Bozeman area. I take them a handful at a time to the grocery store and library to put on the Boomerang Bag “trees” so people can take them for free if they need a bag.

Happy February!❤️

 Hey there, I kept getting distracted every time I sit down to post! Distractions:

1) I made myself 2 new king shams out of Harmony Art Organic Cotton and I love them! 🛏️

2) I made inserts to get stuffed in all the pet beds. I pinned the inserts to the outside of the bed so it wouldn't get lost in the "stuffing shuffle" as all the beds vary in size due to donated fabric pieces. ðŸķ ðŸą

3) Made a bunch of Valentine bags from fabric I found while cleaning the basement. I offered them to my neighborhood and they were snapped up quickly. Fly little heart bags, do your fabric job!💖

4) Made 2 special request game piece small pouches for a friend whose hubby makes a board game called Aggravation. I made some for her a couple of years ago too, fun project. ðŸŽē

 5) In between sewing, I'm organizing my painting/crafting table and working on watercolors here and there. I'm having so much fun after a many year hiatus. ðŸŽĻ

What are you up to? XOXO--Teresa
