Pickin' n paintin'

I have so many ideas swirling around in my head!  My SIL went picking last weekend and she hit the jackpot for me!  Thanks Deb!! She sent me pictures of tons of treasures for me to paint, so now I just need to figure out what painting will go on each one!  It was perfect timing too, my scroll saw is just about to quit.  It's been acting up for awhile, and making weird noises.  I just put my earbuds in and turn up the ipod!   Don't tell my hubby!!
 
This first pic is of the box of cutting boards she found!  I am so excited to get started on these!
This pic has a few little treasures, I especially love the recipe box and basket.
Look at the adorable sleds!
 
All of these things will be painted up and ready to sell at my craft shows this year.  There is a lot more that she bought, I will post more pics soon.   It will be great to have so many new things!  I will also have the painted cabinet doors this year.  I was worried because my supplier packed up and moved! They didn't even call to tell me!! ha!  After complaining to anyone that would listen, my hairstylist hooked me up!  She told me about a place that may have some and sure enough,  they had some for me.  Thanks Carla!  Well back to the basement to cut some wood to paint while I wait for all my goodies!  Now where did I put that ipod??!!

Painting away!

What a busy time!  I finally got caught up with my wholesale orders and I started in on my show inventory.  I have been doing so much sewing lately, it was nice to hit the wood shop again!  I picked a rainy day and went downstairs to the wood shop and just started cutting.  I got a couple things cut and a storm knocked out the power!  I got everything painted and now I need to head back downstairs and cut some more.  I missed my paint brushes!  I cut some of my "I'm Stuffed Turkey"  It's my own pattern and then I cut some of my scarecrows that are made from a Plum Purdy design. 
 

I'm working on more of my own patterns, so I will hopefully be posting those soon! 
Have a good week!
