A New Tote!!

A week or so ago I bought some cloth napkins on clearance - $1.00 for a set of two!!I did a little piece work with three sets... ...and ended up with this!!
It's lined, with two pockets inside & I also made a little zippered pouch to throw inside.
Maybe some day when I'm REAL ambitious I'll have some of these tote bag sets in my etsy shop.
I needed a new bag...because I'm going to Orlando in March!!! I am very excited! The -45 wind chill today is making it hard to wait!! :)

Don't forget my etsy special- a FREE bar of soap - See the details here. This offer will last through the end of January!!

Fabulous

I have been given a Fabulous award from Tracey @ At Home on the Ridge.

(Thank you, Tracey!) So I am to pass this award on to blogs that I am addicted to and then list for you five things I am addicted to...OK, let's see...

1) I am addicted to HGTV, but my friend Pam assures me that this will pass. (Once having satellite TV newness wears off).

2) I am addicted to blogs...reading them...lots of them. :)

3) I am addicted to a morning cup of coffee.

4) I am addicted to reading. I read lots & often...the Bible, historical fiction, home decorating magazines, Christian fiction, inspirational, you name it...gotta have 2 or 3 books going at one time.

5) I am addicted to soaps, sprays, smelly stuff...that's why I make it! :)

Now, here are some blogs that I love to look at...and I tag you! Tell us what YOU are addicted to!! :)

My very good friend Beth @ Ragtop Originals - she is amazing and accomplishes so much!

My great friend Pam @ PamWardenArt - because, hey Pam...you can't just sit and twiddle your thumbs all day...I'll keep you busy realizing what an addict you are!

Stephanie @ Angelic Accents - she is very sweet and has a sweet blog

Dolly @ From My Cherry Heart - because obviously she is addicted to cherries!! and RATS, I missed her swap!

Don't forget...the special at my etsy shop - see post below - order any of my "favorites," tell me something that's your favorite and I'll throw in a FREE bar of soap!

My Favorites and a FREE offer!!

I was thinking the other day about some of my favorite things. (I think that I was inspired by the start of another year) I absolutely love scented items, which is reflected in many of the things I make. So...this week I listed some of my very favorites in my etsy shop.

First of all, like I said, I love fragrances. I love to have great smells in my home. My room/linen sprays are great & the fragrances linger for a long time.

Another of my "favorites" is clean sheets...especially sheets right off of the clothes line. We've had record breaking snows here in Wisconsin this winter, so not much has come off the line lately, but I did just wash sheets in my Lavender Laundry Soap and they smell great!!! Fresh Linen is actually my favorite, but Lavender is so nice for sheets.

A winter-time favorite for me is a long bath nearly every night. I love to use my cupcake bath bombs. They make my skin feel soft and are just plain fun to use!

Head on over to my etsy shop and order one of my three favorites. If you include a note with your order telling me about one of your favorite things, I'll include a FREE bar of soap!! (My choice, but you can let me know if you prefer floral, fruity, or spicy/cinnamon).
