Calling All Tattered Hearts~Christmas GiveAway

I was going through all my stuff this morning looking for something and I realized
to have way Too much....
lots of old Christmas~lots of everything!
I will be listing some of that in the next few weeks on my new etsy account,
BUT, until then...I put together this little "arrangement" ~ I started with an old tarnished
spooner ~ really beat up and old~

I added some paper crumbles from a 1919 newspaper~
~a reindeer~a bottle-brush tree~ a mercury glass pick~

A little of this,

and a little of that!

If you would like to be entered in this tattered Christmas gifting,become a follower if you are not, leave a comment~ I will draw a name December 4th~My Birthday! Have a Wonderful week~ God Bless you all~ Ann

My etsy name is ~tinrabbitart~ actually, Lance set it up for me a couple years ago, I just never completed it until now...

Thank You, Thank You,Thank you!!!

How lucky am I to have two super-stars come to our little Open House??? Lisa and Dawn drove way out here to Melrose to be at our Open House...These girls must be two of the sweetest people God ever put souls in~ I have to admit, I was a little nervous at first, I mean...they are soooo talented and I've loved their art and blogs forever!!! But.. all that nervousness vanished in about two seconds~

We went out to dinner.... afterwards, they came to our home and the shop. You can see more pictures on both of their blogs ..... and next post, I'll show you the sweet gifts they brought me...you're gonna love them~

Thank you Lisa and Dawn so much for making this time so special..

..Aren't they beautiful???

We had a really good turn out and sold a lot of things...the weather was gorgeous....

Thank you to each of you that came out

I hope you found something that "spoke" to you

~or something that will haunt you, so you'll come back.....

Linda, Earline,Marion, mom & dad, Zandra and sweet Paula.... I could not have done this without all of you.... Thank you all so much!

Shopping...

And most of all...

I want to thank my sweet David for putting up with all this, for all your help, eating sandwiches for days on end, having art supplies all over the place, listening to me complain and say I'll never do this again (knowing I will) but most of all, for being my biggest supporter and encourager. I love you (like crazy)
