~New washer dryer in my studio!~

 I love having a washer & dryer in my studio!

Hello sweet blogging friends! 

Sorry I've not been around much.

I'm thrilled about my new washer & dryer

so I thought I'd blog about them.

They've been a few months in the making.

When my old dryer (in my basement) died.

 I decided to make a dream of mine come true

 of having a washer & dryer on my first floor.

 So I thought what better place for them but in my studio..

I'm here so much anyway.

With the help of a good friend my dream came true!

 Yippee!

The old cabinet had to me removed

 and a smaller one put in for the set to fit.

 We used my old sink & fixtures

because I liked them & kept the cost down.

Only thing left for me to do is paint the above cabinets.

 How are all you doing?

 I'm doing so so but that's another post.....

 Have a lovely day!

~Halloween at Mary's cottage~

 I love my new mantel clock!

 Great find at TJ Maxx for $10.

 Here are some of the prints I used to decorate with.

  I used some vintage postcards & prints that I altered

 Printed them on old 1912 sheet music & parchment paper.

 Also used some family photos that I also altered.

 Found old wood frames at the thrift from .20 to .90 cents each 

 painted them black..

  

 I designed & made these Witches last year..
