Blue - such a cool color!!!

Hello dear friends

This week has been a little easier than the last one!!! Why? Because I have allowed myself time to do what I like!!! I loved it and I am going to try and do it more often!!!

It started with a beautiful pack of 'Blue Paper' I bought a while ago!!! One of those buys not immediately needed but you know you have to have it!!! Just because it's sooo pretty and a 'real good price'!!!! (wink-wink!!! You know what I mean, hey!!!)
Isn't it just beautiful?
Now what to make?.... Ooooo!!! I know!!! My shopping list needs a revamp!!! 
So, a little bit of paper,  a lot of podge and some decoupage techniques and .....
Tah-dah......
A new shopping list... looks so much better!!! Why did I not do that a long time ago?
And instead of hanging from a hook, I hot glued a piece of magnet sheeting at the back and now it can go on the fridge!!! Because that is just were shopping lists are suppose to go!!! Right? Right!!!)
And it looks just so much better on the fridge, don't you think??
And then I tried my hand at rippling.... Lovely Blue ripples!!!!!

Initially I struggled a bit with the decreases, you know the treble 2 together or just tr2tog,(hehehe!!! perfect English when you get it!!!) and once I got it, I simply rippled away!!! I love how quickly it goes!!!
My first try and I totally understand why it becomes so addictive!!! Just love it!!! Oh dear, I think there's another blanket coming soon!!!
I love the colors!!! It reminds me of beautiful blue skies, the beach and the rolling blue ocean!!!
Then I bought Miss Molly this blue canvas bag - again - Blue!!!
And this is how she owl-y-fied it!!! From drab to fab!!! Isn't it beautiful!!! Well done Miss Molly!!! It's just perfect!!!
I started noting the color blue a lot lately! And you know what? I think I like it!!! So many of my things are blue!!! Blue jerseys, jackets, blankets, washcloths, ironing board cover, table cloths etc etc.... 
Here are a few cute Blue things from my craft room...
Yip!!! I think the color Blue is totally cool!!! 

Have a wonderful happy fun filled weekend, 'till later my lovelies!!!!

Love Always

Crochet Flowers and Buttons

Hello again!

Do you remember this photo???
And this one?
  Tah-dah!!!!!!!!! From Drab To Fab.....
                                     
Just love this little corner.  It's always cool with the gentle jingle of the wind chimes and a trickle of water Aanndd it's right under my kitchen window so it has the added smell of brewing coffee!!!  The perfect place for a little bit of hooky while watching the birds bath!

Last Sunday we were blessed with the very rare occasion of a rainy day!! Yep, it's true!! We did!!!  It rained on and off all day.
So we watched some DVD's and I started a new project while Miss Molly treated me to a wonderful and relaxing pedicure.
Just look how many granny squares I made..!!



All made from leftovers from previous projects but I think I'm gonna have to go and buy some more!!! Yippee!!!  I love it !!!
So I'm off now.  Hope you're keeping warm, cosy and flue FREE up there in the north and cool and fresh down in the south
See you soon
Love
AMarie
