Hello my dears... It's a windy night here in St. Martins with a hurricane forecast for Sunday... Fall is in the air and I am busy getting ready Open House at the HOUSE OF HENRY here in St. Martins Labour Day Weekend which is next weekend..
Tonight I am just posting a few pics that I took around the shop..
This is a little herb lady that I finished today..
She has a pouch of tansy on her back and a line of herbs in her hands..
Here are the lavender fresheners that I bottled and finished ready for sale.. I actually sold a few today as soon as I put them out..
I wrote the words -- Between the sheets on one side of the tag and tied some lavender on them..
Here are some Herb Balms ready for sale, too..
I made the labels out of pages of an old book that I had..
I know you can use a computer but these are unique..
Right?
I also have my Smellie Jellies ready, too..
I just put old lace doilies over the covers and tied on a tag..
And of course there will be wreaths..
I brought down several to put together for Fall..
Everyone loves crows..
A few valances...
Nice for a little window somewhere..
There are LOTS of dishes... grin..
Vintage ones...
Terry and I made a variety of Sun catchers with old silverware and even wind chimes with cutlery...
Kind of hard to see but it has old chandelier crystals which catch the sunlight..
Our dear grandsons went home yesterday.. We so enjoyed them.. They are such good boys.. Really... smile.. Not just because they are ours... They really are..
Anyway, last night a friend who grew up with Shonda came with her two kids for a couple of nights.. They love St. Martins and try to come every summer..
I love readers and here is one here...
Isn't that dear?
She helped me at the shop today and this is one of the things we made...
A little journal... the picture is from 1937 of Jo in Little Women..
She is writing in the attic with her pet rats...
Scrabble and his son Sam..
smile..
It was a pic I cut out of a calender years ago and saved for something special..
I love making these journals and now my little friend knows how to make them.. She wrote a list of what she needs to create her own.. smile..
Her brother is pretty smart too and just loved Sammi..
Sam has not had so much exercise in a long time.. giggle..
He is as tuckered out as I am...
Well, sweet ladies, thanks for dropping by and I really want to welcome the new followers of the blog..
We have met some new ladies in the shop and they have signed up..
Thank you so much..
I love your comments so much and look forward to them each morning..
Take care of you lovely families and come back soon..
God bless...
