Arrrrrrr! A Pirates Life For Me Matey!

I purchased these little pirate annies a few months back and thought I would share them with you all. Aren't they just the cutest? Ok, ok, I know you want to know who made them. Well Cyndy Weeks from Crafty Stitchers did. Cyndy is very talented. She makes the cutest raggedies. Look at the attention to details with this pair. From the gold earrings, the gold coins that adorn the clothing to the buried treasure map, Cyndy has created some piratelicious annies. Cyndy has a facebook page and also sells through etsy.

A Monkey Love

Isn't this little sock monkey that absolute cutest? I am so smitten with it! I purchased it from Cyndy at CraftyStitchers etsy shoppe. I remember as a young girl having a sock monkey and he was so well loved too!


And when Cyndy shared this little cutie on her blog, well I couldn't resist getting her too! She is the smallest raggedy angel but with such attention to detail, but I knew it would be so, since I already own another of Cyndy's raggedies and it is topnotch!

Anyway, if you haven't taken a peek at what Cyndy has to offer for sale, stop by her etsy shoppe...you won't be disappointed.

Until next time...

Farmhouse Swap Goodies Came

I was paired up with Cyndy from Crafty Stitchers as a swap partner in the Farmhouse Summer Swap that Amy of Bumble Bee Lane hosted. And I gotta tell you that Cyndy sent the most wonderful goodies.



Cyndy makes the most cutest raggedy anns ever! If you haven't seen her work you really need to hurry on over to her etsy shoppe and check it out. They are awesome! Cyndy sent me this little cutie patootie! She has the sweetest little yellow dress with little bumble bees on it...Oh my! Too cute!











Here she is with the other Raggedy Ann and Andy that I purchased from Diane at Country Doings blog. She looks right at home.
























Cyndy also sent this cute little sheep sign, stuffed sheep ornie and little cutest little sheep magnet. Already found homes for all of them too...




There was also this paper mache sheep box...too cool! I have also found a new home for that! Boy I am running outta room on my new peg shelf, guess I'd better have the hubby make me a couple more! LOL! He doesn't know it but I have plans already.











Here is the sheep box and the sign in their new home. And if that weren't enough, there was this neat stuffed pillow. If I remember correctly from a post Cyndy made on her blog, it's stuffed with sawdust. This is a printed on fabric technique, that I am dying to try. Just bought the freezer paper to give it a whirl. So if anyone has any tips or pointers, please share.




I have found a temporary home for the pillow and after not liking it there, have decided that it may join Mr. Sunfloweres on my rocking chair in my bedroom.





Cyndy also sent this cute watermelon plate and handpainted watermelon slices. I have them sitting on my dresser right now...too darn cute. I've gotta tell you that I feel thoroughly spoiled by Cyndy. I hope she enjoys what I sent her as much as I am enjoying what she sent to me. Thanks again Cyndy

Until next time...
