Photo journaling

Some photos from the last few weeks:

Took this on my way home from the dentist.

The cows have been in my back yard a lot, lately.

Oh, those leaves!  

Cookies-n-cream!  Ice cream is so photogenic! (Unlike the other food I try to photograph!)  It's just coconut milk, sugar, vanilla in the ice cream machine and then an oreo crumbled on top.

There's a rag ball situation going on.

I've been doing some much needed cleaning and purging.  I cleaned and rearranged this little cabinet.  Story of the cabinet-my dad made this little cabinet for my grandma-for her bell collection. (It hung on the wall.) After she passed, Dad got it back and asked me if I wanted it. I took it and held onto it for years (it was in Larry's shed) before I got the idea to put it up on legs. (I bought a stool at Goodwill and hacked legs off and gorilla glued them on. I painted and distressed it and voila-my little cabinet. I'm so glad I kept it. (This was back when I had far more ambition than I do now.)

Hey there, Cutie!

Snow on my LIVE zinnias!  A first for me-I was excited. Two of my favorite things together.  :) (10-24-13)

 ********************

Some new rugs-

I called this one Storm, since the one I made before this-I named Rain.

Then, I ran out of rug-naming power.  This is blue and gold rug.  *Now, First Frost, as named by Mary.*

This is blanket, sheet and t-shirt rug. *Now named Chili by Mary.  Perfect!*

I found a small red fleece blanket that I never used in the closet, so I decided to cut that up to use it for a rug.  That lead me to cut up fleece couch covers that I had made but no longer used.  So, in this rug is:  a small fleece blanket, sheets that my sister gave me for rugs, thrifted t-shirts, and part of a red fleece couch  cover (polar fleece sewn together with the edges cut and tied to make fringe) that I never really did use.                                

That's it for now-have a great week!
