Mom's Valentine's Day Party...





Wasn't it beautiful?!?! Thank you Mom! I love you!!!

Hug Snug... My New Favorite Thing...

For years I heard Martha Stewart talking about using a wonderful and inexpensive seam binding in place of ribbon. However, all the seam binding I ever saw came in those small cellophane wrapped packages in the notions section. It was not really inexpensive purchased that way. Last week, I came across the Hug Snug product on Ebay and I ordered four rolls. Each roll is 100 yards. The colors are beautiful and the rolls sell for $6.95 each. This stuff must be what Martha is talking about. Seam binding is very thin and fine and so it ties a beautiful bow and the stuff is washable so that you can easily make a craft that requires some kind of vintage application. I had a great experience with Zipperstop, the Ebay vendor that I purchased from. This is one of my new favorite things.
