    Weird Day & Burlap Roses

    Today was one of those days

    that I was supposed to be

    doing something fun and stuff happened

    so I couldn't ~

    So . . . I decided to go to a flea market

    to make myself feel better

    and out of the 350 booths

    that were supposed to be there, according

    to their website, there were maybe 6

    with $175 chairs and shampoo ~

    You know those kind of flea markets ......

    So . . . I went to an antique store

    for inspiration and a sale ~ There were

    sales on stuff "unless marked firm"

    and everything cool was marked

    firm or wayyyyyy overpriced ~

    So . . . I went to my favorite craft stores

    and ended up with 4 pieces of felt ~

    Hmmmmm a half a tank of gas later

    and I got 4 pieces of felt !

    So . . . I came home and followed

    sweet Dawn's advice and

    made something ~

    It really made me feel better too :)

    These are the burlap roses that I made today ~

    You can find them here ~

    Now I am going to go hang with my daughter :)

    That is what life is all about ~
