I feel summer coming

Yep it is getting warmer each day and I am not that excited about that living here in the desert Southwest.   I wanted to share again something using twine.   If you are coming over from the shop welcome.  I will be using the blog to announce discounts and there will be freebies here and there.   So as I share my projects please link up how you are using your twine too and lets share twine ideas.

Isn't this tag just great with the maraschino cherry twine.   I love the vintage look.   It doesn't seem right to entice you over to my blog with out offering up some twine.   If there are at least 10 comments here at my blog by June 15th I will randomly draw for 20 yards of your choice of twine any color.   So leave a comment.   Link up a project.   Just say HI!!! and please come back as I plan on blogging a few projects here and there and would love to see what you all are doing with your twine.

Happy National Scrapbooking Day

Is it no wonder that National Scrapbooking Day is the day before Mothers Day.   I am sure many of the scrapbooking store whether they be brick and mortar, internet store, or good ole etsy are having sales today.   Perfect timing.


Well not to be out done I have the last of my full spools of bakers twine on sale this weekend.  Dropped the prices by $2.00 so head over to the shop and pick on up.

In the meantime let me share with you one of my twine creations.

Let's just tie up the loose ends

In the beginning...well not quite the beginning of my scrapping life but somewhere in there I fell in love with some linen twine.   A few years later I ordered up some cotton twine.   I haven't looked back at the rough, splitting linen though the solid colors are beautiful so I may be writing about that someday but right now bring on the cotton.  I had to have every color.   So I jumped in both feet and now have a little etsy shop by the same name.I wanted some great packaging so I put it on some die cuts.   If you like Tim Holtz die cuts and LOVE twine please check out my shop.   If you are just interested in using some bakers twine to tie up gifts and baked goodies also please check out my shop.
