I know I said I would ship Thursday, which is, ahem, today, I 'm starting to think this crafty thing is going Saturday. I got a little more involved in it then I had planned. But it is a really cool thing, and I just can't help but add more stuff, suddenly I am gluing beans and have to wait for a side to dry and move on. Ooops didn't think the whole process through, but this is fun. Maybe the bestest trade ever.

Re: Old School Craft, part2
Fri, August 25, 2006 - 5:26 AMi'm gonna have to ship on saturday too... what with glue drying and paint drying and poly drying... it's taking longer than i expected too... i'm just glad i didn't try anything more elaborate than i did... and i had more elaborate plans... but i saw early on that they were gonna fail so i altered direction and managed to get a similar craftyness going... but obviously not in time to mail today... *pout* -

Fri, August 25, 2006 - 2:33 PMKerri, I swear I am hurrying. lol
BTW, Patty made me the AWESOMEST Old School Craft. Y'all must have gone to better schools than I because my mosaic tray from Patty is simply awesome. My daughter made me laugh when she read Patty's note and said, "Your friends always say that this is not very good what they made but they are lying. This tray thing is like...perfect." lol
Post pics!!!!! -

Re: Old School Craft, part2
Wed, August 30, 2006 - 8:49 PMPeggy! I love the beautiful doily you made! Thank you!
I inherited dozens of doilies from my family, but I don't have any in lavender. It's just lovely! -

Re: Old School Craft, part2
Thu, August 31, 2006 - 9:41 AMI am glad you like it. It seemed kind of tame compared to what others are making, but I thought it was pretty and for sure crocheting your own doilies is not done much anymore. I have pics, I will post them when I get home tonight. -
