Update for March

It feels like forever since I last posted!! I have been recovering from pneumonia that I believe was a result of my immune system being weakened by Co-Vid.  My husband and I had it last Thanksgiving.  I am happy to say we were able to get our 1st shot of the vaccine this past week!!  It seems like there are more vaccines available now!!  

The picture above was a project that I was inspired to do because I was watching some videos by Julie of Julie's design and Signs on You Tube.  She has some great ideas on how to take items that she purchased at Goodwill or Thrift shops or yard sales and make them into items that are upscale and very saleable!  I purchased the box above at Goodwill for 1.99 and painted it with chalk paint and sanded it down to distress it! I added a label that I Mod Podged to the front of the box! 

I just love the project! It was made with old paperback books from Goodwill- 1.00 each. I Mod Podged a picture to the front after I had hot glued the books together and then decorated it with flowers!

You do have to remove the spine and front and back covers.  Julie has a video that shows you how to do it!  

I would provide the link but I can't seem to make it work....

I have also been working on making cards!  I love the card below from an Etsy file I purchased and made on my Cricut.  Too cute!

I will end my post with a picture of the organizational cubes I bought from Michael's.  My Cricut sits on just fine!  It also gave me a place to put my 12 x12 paper.  I love it!  

 Our time here in Florida is coming close to an end.  We plan on heading back to Maine the end of April.  Still more than a month away!   We have had great weather while we have been here and have played lots of golf!!  I pray everyone is healthy and happy and stays that way!!
