RUMMAGE SALE.

I am pumped.  I got a sneak preview at the merchandise at the church tonight, and there was a BIG box of fabric and sewing paraphenalia, with 3 1/2 yards of a very pretty pattern right on top.  

I CANNOT WAIT.

I do!


Joshua and I visited his and my parents this weekend for Easter and to see some family and visiting friends.  When I got to my parent's house, my mom showed me these adorable jars that she found for me to store my buttons in.



Aren't they adorable?!

I love it because I can see the buttons that I'm looking for, and they're all color coordinated thanks to a fun sorting party with Trinity from Trips, Tips, and a Tripod.







On a side note, I got to spend the afternoon napping and making soap with Joshua, today.  It was absolutely lovely.


I'll leave you with some pictures of a trifting make-over from a couple of weeks ago.  This is a box that I bought at my church's rummage sale last year and decided to freshen up with a coat of paint.  It was a really warm, orangey wood color.






I put a coat of off-white paint on it to match the face in the cameo that is on the front, and a deep purple color on the inside. Isn't it cute?!  I love it :D

That's all I have for now.  Thanks for joining me today!  Back soon after my crafy-time this Saturday!

Keep Smiling,
Alyssa
