Love This Idea!

Look at this fabulous tablecloth!! What a great idea for Thanksgiving! I really think I am going to do this. It isn't very expensive but looks like so much fun! And as the family gets older there are fewer and fewer crafty things for everyone to do and actually have fun with. It is from blue cricket design blog.  She purchased the supplies from Lowes. A drop cloth, sharpie markers & that's it!! Visit her blog to see how she put it all together!!

I want to feature another friend on my blog today....Trisha, with Beautiful Garden Boutique Jewelry! I was on the design team at Devine Memories with her. Now she is doing some amazing things with her jewelry line.

Check out her Etsy store!
Here are just a few of the beautiful pieces she has. She has even been nice enough to offer a discount to my readers!! Just go to her Facebook page & "like" her shop. She will contact you with a discount code! How cool is that!!

Her Etsy shop is packed full of jewelry. There are lots of different designs and items to choose from.

With such a great choice I am sure you will find something that you like for yourself or for a gift! Have fun shopping!
