Saturday ... Snowing ... Sewing ... GIVEAWAY!


WOW ... It's Snowing like CRAZY here! The perfect time to get caught up on sewing ... 

Currently I am making:




And a pillow using 



with my friend Amanda's FABULOUS




PLUS ... 
Working on this little guy (AGAIN!)



I think I'm going to FINALLY finish these Snowmen! I have a whole box full of little Snowman heads all ready to go, I just couldn't figure out whether to sew a whole bunch of bodies or do something else. Maybe put them on a stick? Make the bodies out of paper clay? UGH! The last two Christmas's I've brought them out, then put them back in January. Other projects came and went, but I kept thinking about my Snowmen. Then I spied something on Pinterest and my problem solved! 
It was like Snowman Serendipity! 
The image linked to this AMAZING blog with a GREAT idea ... 


Her blog is called Creative Dreaming and it's darling! I think I'll put some candies in the jars and give them for gifts!

 PLUS 
look at this paper that I can use for the hats!


And how great are these embellishments?



They're from a company called Webster's Pages and they're just as beautiful in person as they are on the site! As a matter of fact, when lovely Courtney sent me a pack to try out, I couldn't believe both the quality and design. And the best part? 

If you head over to 

WHERE WOMEN CREATE

you can comment to win a collection kit of YOUR CHOICE! 

And another best part? 

Since we've got a BRAND NEW ISSUE of 


I'd like to give TWO copies away to TWO of my readers!

All you've got to do is comment to this thread.
Want two entires?
Comment on the Webster's Pages Fabulous Friday post on WWC and then comment again and let me know you did.

GOOD LUCK and Happy Saturday Friends!

    Just saw your post on Facebook, so glad that I did! I'd love to win a copy of WWC magazine, having just put a wall of shelves up in my studio, I'm probably one baby step (literally...it will be a long road!) closer to someday creating a truly gorgeous space like those in your magazine.
    Also - love your snowman guy, and can't believe you had him sitting around for so long, as he will definitely bring smiles this year! -Laura
