Easter Carriage


This was a quick Easter make.
 
 
 
 
I saw one on Pinterest similar but I don't know who made it.
 
 
 
 
Buttons and paper straws for wheels and axles.
 
 
 
 
Easy peazy.
 
 

 
 
Add some trim.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Happy Easter!

Cloche Swap!
 
 
Look at all the Easter sweetness from
 
I love swaps, don't you?
 
 
Isn't this the cutest cloche?
Picket fence that looks like it has clematis growing on it!
Sweet chicks inside
with a handmade pom-pom on top!
 
She also included one of her adorable handmade Easter baskets she made from peat pots!
And it had candy inside, like water to someone on the desert to someone on this Curves diet!!
I WAS SO HAPPY!! :-)
 
She must have read my mind~ she sent pink gardening gloves!!
 
THANK YOU
Sweet Holly
 
This was a really fun swap,
I enjoy making for Easter.
 
And thank you to Deb at Garage Sale Gal for hosting!
 
~~Happy Easter~~

Glitter Eggs

 
I've been making glitter paper mache eggs this week.
 
 
I have smaller eggs I'm working on next week.
 
 
Easy and fun to make.
 
 
This flowering shrub is growing at the corner of my new house.
Does anyone know what it is?
I've never seen one like this before.
 
 
This is another picture.
It has buds all along the stems.
 
  
 
 
 
Happy Spring!

I'm glad Easter is late this year.
 
It gives me more time to craft before Easter.
 
(This isn't the cloche for my swap)
 
My only enemy is the hot glue gun.
 
 
I end up with third degree burns on my finger every time I get near one.
 
 
 
I finished making my Cloche for the swap today.
 
And decorated my hutch with Easter decorations, some made by me
 
and some from past swaps with blogging friends.
 
 
 
I'm working on these paper mache eggs next.
 
 
I had plenty of help from my little Wing Man, Bam Bam.
 
 
 
I hope you have a warm and sunny week.
 
Hugs from me and Ms. Wilma and Bam Bam.

Lemon Pound Cake

Good Wednesday Morning
 
 
 
The lemon sour cream pound cake turned out very good.
If you want a piece, you'd better hurry on over before it's gone!
 
The recipe came from www.myrecipes.com
 
It's been a three dog night at my house lately.
 
 
Huey P. Long is visiting us from New Orleans.
 
 
 
Bam Bam doesn't realize that Blue Bell will go strait to his hips!
 
 
 
We visited our oldest son in New Orleans last week and this is where we wound up!
It looked like something from "Swamp People"...
 
Have a great Wednesday,
Dorothy and Ms. Wilma

Mystery Giveaway!

Hello blogging friends,

The sun is shining and it's beginning to look a little bit like Spring here on the Gulf Coast.

I've been enjoying the sunshine, planting flowers in my new yard. Yellow and White Daffodils.

I also planted some herbs for my kitchen window.

 
 
I hope they come up~
 
 
I made a lemon sour cream pound cake this morning and the kitchen smells so good!
 
 
 
I'm having a Mystery Giveaway~
 
 
 
Ms. Wilma and I are going to fill this pretty little suitcase full of Springtime loot.
We're not sure yet what all we are putting in it, but we promise you will be happy!
 
All you need do is leave a comment on this post, easy as that!
 
We'll pick a name out of the hat Saturday March 22 and it should arrive before Easter!
 
Good Luck,
Hugs and Blessings
from Dorothy and Ms.Wilma and Bam Bam
