Has been a busy few weeks......the first picture shows a hand-painted journal and memo note box, adapted from older Terrye French patterns.

All this is near and dear to my heart!! I did this pcinic basket as part of the Terrye French "Painting With Friends" group....Terrye provides the drawing, and a "friend" does the painting and pattern instructions.....I recently joined the group and this is my first project!! Patterns are available for purchase ($5 each for e-patterns) from the Painting With Friends site.

This vintage scale has been painted with an old Kim Klassen pattern....love anything with a crow on it!!
Finally got the calendar updated....so excited to be doing the Country Chicks show this spring!! My first time as a vendor there, and plan to have my booth jam-packed with vintage goodies and hand-painted treasures!!
Also have several other shows planned for the year....I may be adding one or two more in the fall......love to paint pumpkins, so I need an outlet!!!
