Ruffle Wedding Cake

As promised, here are some pictures of the final result of all the work for the last 3 months.  Yes you can plan a wedding in 3 months, not 1 year, not 2 years... more time means more money you spend!  This wedding was absolutely beautiful and well planned.  It was described as a fairytale wedding when the guest walked into the hall!

1.5 Hour Handbag Sewing Project!

Yes you can make this bag in about an hour in a half.  If you cut out the pieces the day before you start sewing, lay them all out and sew the next day, the project will take about an hour.  Simple, fun and makes a great gift!  The sewing pattern can be purchased here:  AggieRay!

No time to sew, you can still purchase a completed handbag here:  AggieRay!  The fabric used for this handbag is Amy Butler Midwest Soul Blossoms Fuchsia Tree - Carmine Amy Butler Midwest Soul Blossoms Fuchsia Tree.  The fabric is available in my fabric shop on Etsy !Amy Butler Fabric with more fabric available for immediate shipping FabricPlace  This is a great bag to carry this Summer!

The Big Wedding Day!

Well it is almost here. One more week my son is getting married.  I have been working on various projects with my future daughter-in-law, to help save money for the wedding.  One of them is this beautiful cake stand.  I cannot wait to see the actual cake on top of it!  This was a great easy project, but it did take some time trying to find materials to work with to build the stand, nothing I couldn't find at my local Home Depot store and Michael's Craft Store!   More pictures from the wedding to follow!

Blizzard 2013 February 8 and 9th, 2013

I am one of the most fortunate ones to still have power.  Most of the State of Rhode Island is without power.  The snow is a serious problem with getting the electricity restored.  The snow has to be cleared, trees cut and then the electric crews can get to the source.  It was a very peaceful walk this morning. I was able to let the dogs run free because no vehicles are allowed on the roads right now.  Here are the pictures.

Wedding Party Bouquet

Designing wedding bouquets for my son's wedding.  So much fun.. Fun to make. A little bit of a learning curve with these, but I think I have mastered it.

Puppy Love

There is nothing more special than a puppy.  I have two Goldens now and they have completely changed our lives, for the better.  When you come home, they are the first to greet you at the door with all their love and energy and they are soooooooooooo happy to see you.  Here are few pictures of my beautiful boys.
