Great Valentine Gift

This year I tried my hand at thread crochet and found this basic heart bookmark. After making 3 of them, I decided to try adding a tail to the last one. I found the pattern online, but just simply can't find it now....but here's one that's really close to it

Filet Heart Bookmark (I used size 10 thread and Hook size 6)


And here's a great list of other Free Bookmark Patterns.

Do you have a favorite Crochet or Knit Bookmark pattern that you like?

I'm even trying out heart shaped, textured or patterned scarf patterns with the thread to make into bookmarks. Fun, Fun!!

"Happy Finger" Puppets Tutorial

Well, I'm not sure whether to keep reading up on the 'how to's of blogging and the like, or just dive in. But I gathered up some craft supplies to shoot/write my first tutorial. Should have it up tomorrow. I'm like a kid in a candy store on this new venture. Stay tuned!!

Welcome!

I fell in love with this blog name as I'm consumed with re purposing things from thrift stores and garage sales. I love the challenge and the thrill of making over clothes, decor and even shoes for new and wonderful purposes. I'm excited to share these ideas with you.
