Just Listed On Someplace In Thyme~Snowpeople

I don't know what it is with me lately, but I am lovin all things French and in particular, snowpeople.
This is for a set of three, all with a Paris theme and glass glitter. I thought they came out so sweet and just perfect for hanging on the tree.

This is a combination of French and cottage with lots of handmade roses, vintage lace and ribbons.
I think these are my favorites for sure. I didn't think I could love snowpeople as much as this. It must be something in the air.

These are not made of a heavy cardboard, but are made of wood and painted, then decorated.
If you would enjoy seeing how I made them, please check out my personal blog Someplace In Thyme.
I hope to get these listed in my shop this evening. Have a great day!

~~Like It Or Not~~It's On It's Way

It's so hard to think of the holidays when the temperature outside is 113 degrees during the day and never falls below 100 at night.
For the first time, I find myself ahead of the game and that makes me one very happy girl.
This is the last of 23 stockings. You heard me right, I created and finished 23 stockings so far this year.
Yes, I am a happy girl!!

I am participating in the holiday show in TN this fall. Many of my stockings and ornaments will be for sale in the Shabby Lane Shops booth. We were lucky to get two booths so hopefully we will have lots of room for all the goodies we will be selling. Shabby Lane Shops will also appear on T.V. how exciting will that be?
I used vintage crochet work and pearls over this gorgeous teacup fabric, one of my favorites.

Comes with a hand painted jingle bell at the toe and some pearls too. :)

Back by popular demand are my snow people. I will be adding them to my website the first of Sept. along with all the orther ornies you see here. If you can't wait until then, you may be able to still find a few at
Someplace In Thyme.

So cute mini mittens. These too will be returning.

I never dreamed when I made these pretty bells that they would be so popular. I sold out of them last year and plan on making many more for you this year. I do have the one above and another with pink and white roses, not yet listed, but for sale none the less.

I was playing around with this pretty strawberry sachet today, when I discovered how pretty she would be hanging from the Christmas tree. There is a ribbon loop which would make it the perfect ornie, or gift.
Be sure to visit often, as I will be listing these and more in my shop and in my etsy shop as well.

Busy As A Bee Making Stockings

I have learned from past mistakes, that one can never be too early or prepared for the holidays. Sooo, I have decided to start early this year and be ready for a wonderful holiday season.
I thought I would show you the first of 5 of my completed stockings.
I hope you enjoy what I have created so far this year.

Vintage crochet work as well as vintage buttons and a cute ornie at the top.

Venise Lace and a sweet gingerbread star at the top.

This image is probably one of my most favorites. I love the look of these Victorian ladies. Vintage lace was used also.

More vintage buttons and lace, along with another beautiful image of Victorian ladies dressed up in fashionable clothing.
This is the first of 10 completed stockings. I will be showing you more later in the week.
These will be uploaded onto my website Someplace In Thyme this week.

JUST LISTED~A TRIO OF SWEET GINGERBREAD MEN

Oh my, aren't these little guys just the cutest gingerbread men/women you have ever seen? I adore these sweet decorations.....and they are pink too!!

Each one measures 8" hanging and is decorated with german glass glitter.

I think they would make the perfect gift for teachers, or for decorating your packages too.
These and more can be found at Someplace In Thyme.

TRIO OF SNOW WOMEN

A sweet trio of snow people for your holiday decorating. Made of heavy cardboard, these sweeties have been painted, sugared with german glass glitter and decorated......

White paper roses and pink and white roses on the hat, this snow person is the only one of the trio with arms. A white satin ribbon bow at the neck.

This is a snowlady for sure with her faux pearls, pearls around her hat and a ribbon bow. She is a delight and as with the other two, she hangs 10" including the hanger.

These would be adorable on the tree, but thinking outside the box, each one would make a lovely teacher's gift or decoration on a package....very shabby and sweet. I hope you enjoy them, they will be available on my website later today.

CUPCAKE TASSEL

My latest holiday tassel is this sweet cupcake. I was lucky to find some ribbon with cupcakes on them as well as striped ribbon in matching colors.
Very festive and would make the sweetest gift too. Yummy enough to want to eat....but you can't!!!
