LOTS AND LOTS OF NEW THINGS GOING ON AT THE FARM....PLEASE READ ON.....

I know I have been missing for  while from blogger but I have plenty to share with you in an effort to catch up.

First of all, I owe a very big thank you to LECIA of FARMHOUSE PRIMS for an unsuspected RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS.  Back before Christmas she made a beautiful Mr. and Mrs. Santa set that I happened to see on her blog and I fell in love with them.  Well, beings it was that time of year, I reluctantly passed on them knowing that I still had lots of Christmas shopping to do for some very special people.  Well gosh....I went to the door the other day and there to my surprise was this big box.  Hmmm....the first thought that entered my head was that I hadn't ordered anything lately.  Well, oh my word, was I surprised when I opened the box and found the Mr. and Mrs. that I had drooled over months before laying in this box.  Sweet Lecia had thought of me in such a special way and now I can give the sweet couple a forever home.  Thank you soooooo much Lecia!  I am so touched by your sweet act of kindness.  Of course, I love them and will cherish them.

I also received a package from VICKY of PAINTSPOTS AND SPLINTERS this week.  I was blessed to win her sweet Rosabelle springtime bunny.  She is just adorable and I love her hot pink bow!!!  Makes me long for springtime thats for sure.  To my surprise, Vicky had included a couple other goodies in the box as well.  A tube of Sunshine Daisy body cream (which I love...it smells so good) and also the cutest little plant stake.  Thank you so much Vicky...your work is amazing and you certainly spoiled me!

   

Aren't they just the cutest!!!!  I hope you will take some time and stop by Vicky's etsy store and view all of her adorable handpainted items.  You can find them HERE

From time to time, I have had customers who share pics with me of how they decorate with their prim purchases and I thought I would share this one with you.  Jillian purchased my sweet springtime bunny, Winifred, which was listed on etsy and here is the pic she was sweet enough to send to me.......

Thanks so much for sharing, Jillian!  She looks right at home among your wonderful collection!

I have just listed a new pinkeep on etsy that I wanted to share....

 This cute little keep would be the perfect gift for the pinkeep collector or would be great snuggled into that little cubby or sitting atop that prim shelf.  The keep is made of vintage drab green wool from an army blanket and is filled with crushed walnut shells to keep those pins and needles sharp.  There is also a vintage civil war era "bone" button attached.  If you are interested, you will find the link to my etsy shop on my right-hand sidebar.  If you do not have an etsy account, feel free to email me with any questions at grams1garden@yahoo.com.

Also, (this has been a busy month...ha) I have just joined a new etsy selling group called FOLKART AND PRIMITIVES.     I hope you will stop by and get acquainted with this wonderful group of artists.  Be watching as we will be having our first giveaway in just a few days.  To find us on etsy, just type FAAP in your etsy search bar.

AND LAST, I am so excited to say that I have joined a very talented group of artists from  

EARLY WORK MERCANTILE and will be listing some new goodes on March 1st.  I hope you will plan to stop by and take a peek at all the wonderful artists and their beautiful handiwork.  I will have some new goodies for you...mice of course.....maybe an Amish mouser or two and some sheep with their prim carts.

THANKS FOR POPPING IN!!!!

  hugs,
