An Estate Sale

I went on a visit to Maryland last week and while there I went to an Estate Sale.

There were seven rooms of things to choose from and I am showing you four items I picked up and guess how much it cost me! Nothing! It was at my daughters home and she was down sizing her abode and I went up there to help her get things priced etc. I picked out a few things and was willing to pay for them but you know how families are......

Her Estate sale was a very good one and very successful and we took home a car full of things I just couldn't let her sell. Isn't that just nice of me :)

These bunnies were just perfect for Easter filled with jelly beans. This other urn is beautifully handcarved with flowers and birds on it. Yes, birds. Would you believe I like birds?

I don't think it's a bad thing that you came home with a car full of things! I love birds too! Sweet nest that you took a photo of.
Easter Blessings!

Why I started to Blog.....

If you like to write, being a story, a poem, an article, your thoughts for others to see blogging is the way to go.

Being creative only since 2007 when I joined an internet group on yahoo and then a webiste for creative people on Swap-bot, this has been a way for me to write and create.

There are a great many bloggers with many creative ideas and stories to tell and I wanted to join in so here I am and I hope lyou will enjoy my muse.

I have gone thru a new phase in my life since 2007 and that is crafting. I did ATC's in all mediums and have started to think about quilting. I have done some fabric things. I have made fabric postcards in a yahoo group and did over 150 of them. Then fabric ATC's and they account for a few, but have two big looseleap books of paper ones I swapped with others. There are so many talented people and this is the way to find them.

In 2009 I really go into making fabric journals, inchies, other dolls and the lapquilts for my grandchildren.

It is 2012 and only one month left of this year.
Still doing swap-bot challenges. I think I have sent out over 1200 postal packages, letters, cards, goodies to people by now and intend on sending more as long as the post office doesn't get more extreme than they are already.

However, I did get the bug to write. I may not be great at it. I was a terrible in my English class at school. However, I love to write in journals, I make up nonsense stories to my grandchildren. Now I put all my writings down in a binder for my children and grandchilden can see what I did in my later lifetime. Even poetry has entered my thoughts as you can see on this blog.

Swap-bot has become addictive for me. I love trading crafts and things with others. To see abilities of others as they send you things they make. Wonderful fun!

Just go to http://www.swap-bot.com/ and see all the fun things you can share with others.
