Krista,, I look through a stack of my vtg "Workbasket" mags... and have not found the pattern yet. I want to say it might have been an old Annie's Attic catalogue. I will continue looking... I went on 'Bing' and found these cuties,, like the ones you craft.. ... but I like yours better..

Grace, I believe those are the same ones where I found my pattern. That looks just like the picture! Lol! Thank you! They are so easy and fun to make!

I got sticker shock when I saw how much dachshund patterned shower curtains were so I made my own. I traced dachshund drawings then painted the fur. Wings and details were colored by marker. Unique!

Vanessa, that's a great idea. Will your paint and markers hold up with the water? Definitely a unique shower curtain!
Tonight after I put my kids to bed I am going to work on a UFO blanket. Would love to get another project finished. Plus it will be a nice break from some crochet for a minute.

I am finishing up on my Carp-hen-try and Furniture Makeover. Since I'm on spring break this week I completely redid my bathroom from an old 1980's cream/green/brass to light gray, bright white, and oiled bronze. I love it! I also found an old piece of picket fencing to make a headboard for our bed.....next I will be working on wooden indoor shudders! Using my downtime wisely!!

Looks very lovely, Jenny! A picket fence headboard sounds so interesting. I would love to see it when it's complete. Will it be white?

Krista, I used Sharpies mostly, and the inner shower curtain is pretty thick. If I need to, I can always make another.

Not the greatest picture, but I started up on another corner to corner. I only have 16 more rows to go. This C2C will be apart of a large blanket I am making. It's going to be a slow process, but I don't have a deadline.

Ruthie, that sounds pretty! I can't wait to see it!
I need to ground myself from Pinterest. I was looking through it on Friday and found another crochet project I really wanted to make. So what does my crazy self do?? I start working on it! Now I have another started crochet project. It's time I stay away from Pinterest until I catch up on projects. It's going to be painful! Lol

Well, I was fiddleing around in my craft room...
yep, a lil Spring YoYo tree..
This could be fun, a tree for each Holiday... a green one for St. Patricks Day, A orange and black one for Holloweenie.. you get the idea.
Even Kiki likes it...

Wow! Everyone has been so busy. Such a creative group. I have just been a slug lately …. so yesterday I decided enough was enough and made a couple of front door dream catchers.
This one was for my door.
This one was for my daughters door.

Super cute spring tree, Grace! I agree. You need one for each holiday and occasion! Maybe even a birthday one with a candle on top!
Theresa, your dream catchers turned out great!

I started making my badges (I'm not an artist at, but I tried) and sewing them on to my new Chapter Leader Jacket. It's a lot more intensive than I thought it would be!

Hi Aidan,
I was born and lived in O.C. for years. Bought our house in Southwest Riverside Co.
We are selling our house though and moving out of state after it sells.
