Yes, I am very behind on my posts here, but the good news is, I’ve been very, very busy! I just finished doing three local craft shows with my PetMats and am happy to report that they were well received. Of course, as soon as I got that venture off the ground, I got three new wall jobs. The wall work is now consuming all of the my time, so I will not be able to add any new PetMat designs or get my KidMat designs out until early in the new year. I am excited about the mats and want to be sure I can devout the time needed to these.
More about the new wall work jobs in upcoming posts.
I did take a few minutes to start getting my house ready for the holidays. Using one of my favorite stencils from Royal Design Studios, Kimono Allover, I stenciled my windows with Glass Wax. Remember Glass Wax? It’s hard to find, but I did find some at my local Ben Franklin’s. Melanie is running a web special for snowflake stencils at the moment. I did place an order earlier this week for some Moroccan stencils, so will be receiving my new, free, snowflake stencils shortly! I used the Kimono OverAll stencil for the Holiday Cat PetMat above.
Next, I tackled my chalkboard backsplash. For this, I just cut out a template, traced and colored in.
While I was doing all of this, I made myself a latte, adding a snowflake design with the Stencil Library’s snowflake pattern. 🙂 They have some great Holiday stencils on this site, so be sure to pop over there for a look!
I also trotted out my favorite little Grinch for Holidays!
you are too much…snowflake stencil on your latte! love it! love your work
All of them are SO cute!
The chalkboard backsplash is brilliant!
And the Christmas lights on it are adorable!
