I repurposed a couple of small, old drawers today, you almost don't recognize them as drawers anymore.

This one is for all you tote lovers out there... 

This beautiful antique tote was built from scratch...

I'm a little unsure what to call this little tote but I  know I definitely want it around holding some  of my favorite gardening things.

I love making wooden totes. I use wooden totes  of all kinds all over my house for storage.

Another snow day is the perfect time to work  on a new project...

The day started with a great thrift store find.

I made this made from driftwood. 

The tote I'm transforming today for my gardening has been one of my favorites for a long time. 
I used this tote to carry my craft supplies, labels, and tags to craft shows. 
With one easy swipe of a stencil I'm transforming it into my new favorite garden tote. 
Take a look....

When I saw this basket for sale on a popular website I knew this was something I could easily make!

This morning I'm heading out to visit a friend.

I had the day off with my car in the shop so I used this day to work on projects for my next craft fair.
You had to see my kitchen... sewing machine out, paint, tables, trunks, transfers, totes... you name it, I was working on it. It looked a little like Santa's workshop.
I thought I had more time but just realized that the craft fair I signed up for was taking place in 2 weeks...Yikes!

Today I'm using scrap pieces of grain sack fabric from repurposed napkins for the front of the pillows and striped ticking fabric on the back.

Using a product called Transfer Artist PaperI printed out a bee and wreath image from the Graphics Fair.


I added a cute little rusty bellto the center of the wreath.
Another pillow I made is the same as the bee/wreath

Today's project fills a need for sure! 
I have a workshop in my basement but I work all over the house. I craft in the office and right on our huge kitchen island. 
I am forever forgetting things that I need in the basement. Or if I try to bring up everything I need I usually have my hands and my pockets full on the way up the stairs. 
Today I'm going to fix that problem...
