Handmade Goodness



Hello, friends.  I've recently been blessed with some lovely handmade gifts, and thought I'd share them with you.  Above is a felted northern flicker my niece bought for me.  I have it hanging in my sewing room, and it makes me smile every time I see it.  My dear friend (we've been friends since 9th grade, so over 50 years now!) gifted me this wonderful felted wool potholder and woven towel from Boone.  I so enjoy using handmade items in our home.  They have a soul that massed produced items don't.  I know I'm a lucky woman.




Last week, I went thru Swagbuck for 4% cash back, with a coupon code for 20% off a food purchase, a business supply purchase for 2% cash back, with redeemed points for an additional $6 off order, and an order for my soap shop, for 3% cash back.  Every little bit adds up.  I've started my annual week of working at the gallery.  I worked Saturday, and will work through Saturday next week, except for Thanksgiving.  We'll be keeping it simple that day.  A pumpkin pie was made on Sunday, and frozen, so that's done.  I hope you enjoy good food and good cheer on your Thanksgiving holiday.
