two word tuesday AND an update all in one fell swoop...although it is wednesday and that was three words. eh, details, details...
christmas candy is a holiday/christmas papercrafting kit that i am smitten over. it is full of bright aqua, tomato red, dusty pink, and olive green. it includes some old ivory buttons and kitschy plastic holly. and my FAVORITE part about this kit? my inspiration is a paper (by crate paper) that is not christmas-y at all. not. at. all.
want to peek?i only have 3. three. tres. trois. this is a kit that, like the giveaway from the weekend, is made mostly from what i have in my personal stash...it also includes treasures i have picked up in thrift stores and from garage sales. when i do list these kits, i will post here and on twitter (which will be in the next couple of days)...
next...what do you get when you take a white bird or two and a petite can of blue spray paint?
you get two blue birds.this was a fun and EASY diy inspired by these lovely ladies...dottie angel, miss james, and my sweet friend amy.
i hear some squeaking puppies which, when translated, means hungry, cold, and in general, just bored.
happy veterans day.



























this must be a good week to buy squat cans of spray paint. i just flirty-pinked margie's flea market mirror. not bad for $4. love the birdies!

i really like that you're chosen unconventional colours for a xmas themed kit.
