It is pretty sad when it takes you over a year to paint 6 small ornaments.

These hearts sat on my desk for over a year and I finally decided it is now or never.  I finally finished these yesterday...even photo and listing them on Etsy.

SHOCKER!!

Click the photo for details.

I know none of you procrastinate like that!

Now I have some Snowmen ornaments sitting on my desk for the last 7 months...wish me luck that I will get them done in less then a year!!

Old Farmhouse Gathering Celebration Underway!

Apparently I must have really been in the mood to paint Snowmen this year. 

 Out of the 4 listings for the Spirit of Christmas Celebration for the OFG Team on Etsy 3 where snowmen.

This might be do to living in the cold and having no snow last year. 

If it is going to be cold you need to have snow to justify the below freezing temps! 

Of course you can never have enough snow-men, snow-women or snow-angels!

Spirit of Christmas Celebration Sneek Peek

Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sale and a GIVEAWAY

I am not the world's best shopper and having to be in crowds gives me anxiety to the max!
I wonder if anyone is like me in that way?
 I think this all stemmed from trying to go to the grand opening of the Luxor Casino in Las Vegas when I first started dating my husband. The crowds were unreal, and coming from a small town in Colorado at the time, it was soooo overwhelming to me.
 I think this was the place I lost my mind...what little I had to begin with.

So the convenience of shopping on line is HEAVEN to me.
Bunny slippers and Diet Pepsi…I am set.

With all of that being said I am having a 10% off everything in my Etsy shop with either the codes BLACKFRIDAY or CYBERMONDAY in the code spot.
This is for all merchandise in my shop but excludes shipping fees.
This will run from November 23 through December 1.
