What's Next

I have decide that I have just enter a new phase of life for me with moving and taking a year off from most of my crafting.  I sorted out some of the things I moved with me in the way of supplies and went through a couple of boxes of things I had put together from stuff I had at shows. As this business was a hobby for me for many years with me attend a few shows here and there, I was not having to make much of a profit on the things I made. With all the previous things made paid for already and plenty if supplies to make more when I am ready, I am ready to just release some of the things from previous show supplies.

What this means is that I am going to be doing some give away both from here and from my Facebook page. I will let you know what and when they will be soon. Also when I get my website remodeled, I will be doing giveaways there also. This is still in the planning stage, but it is an idea I like. I have a number of sterling or fine silver earring, some necklaces and pendents, and leather wristbands that I will be giving away.so stay turned and as I get them set up and planned I will let you know.
Hope you are all having a great day!

Trees for the Festival

Image
As it is almost the end of January, I felt that I should get myself in gear and finish my 2017 Christmas posts. Here is the process I went though this year for the two large trees and one small tree that I decorated for the Festival of Trees First I measured the spaces needed down in my basement game /family area. This tree required a 7x9 foot area and the other required a 9 by 14 foot area. Next I put the trees bag where I wanted to put the tree up in each space. Then I got my ornaments gathered. Next was assembling the trees and checking to make sure the lights worked, as they are always new trees, so far I have not had a problem with lights. Then I put some of the ornaments on, the tree topper on, and the tree skirt around it to check how I am planning it to look. Next I stack the boxes I am going to wrap to had depth and high to the display Then I put out he other items I have that go with the tree theme. This one was a Hogwarts Christmas, of course.

Baked Meat and Cheese Sandwiches I started with two loaf of french bread as I wanted to make enough to freeze some for later and I have found that it only takes a few minutes more to do multiple batches so I can freeze some for a later date. I sliced the bread in half lengthwise Then in a mixing bowl I put one 8oz package of softened cream cheese  and 8 oz of softened butter I then cream it well until it is all mixed together and smooth Them comes the poppy seed I add 2 T of poppy seed And them cream it again until the poppy seeds are evenly mixed in the butter/cream cheese mixture I divide the mixture in 4 and spread it on the halves of french bread.

I use the oven ready noodles as they are easier and less messy Then I chop up my vegetables And add them to the pan with my meat.
