Life is too stressful without a creative outlet. So I craft and paint and quilt and knit. My motto is if you don’t like the way the designer made it, change it. It has to be your own otherwise it is a poor copy of someone else’s work. Anita lives in Vancouver with her husband and two dogs Tavis and Tyler.

Quick and Easy Christmas Countdown
Do you realize it is only 63 days until Christmas?!? And there is even a shorter distance until Bazaar season!

Recipe Box using Shara’s Funky Folk Art
I love Shara Reiner’s whimsical take on folk art. I had the Scallop Box that I thought would work great as a recipe box as a gift for my niece’s bridal shower.
One UFO done
I have had this sheep for over a year, just sitting and staring at me wondering when she was going to get color and become oh so cute. Well apparently this weekend was the weekend.
Fall Candy Corn
A local craft store advertisement had these cute Candy Corns painted on cylindrical cones and I immediately thought of our set of 3, Puffed Trees and how they would be great as Candy Corns.
Quick Ornaments
I have 32 nieces and nephews and 11 grand-nieces and nephews. (I’ll pause here so your eyes can refocus.) My mom likes to create ornaments every year for her grandchildren (my nieces and nephew if you are family tree challenged). So every year, I am on the look-out for ideas to help my mom out, especially since I usually enlist myself to help her make these ornaments. (See other ornament options here.)
