Monday Market with Old Farmhouse Gathering

Welcome to another Monday, hope everyone is staying warm.  Cold air has spreed across this great country, and keeping everyone indoors.  So please get something warm to drink and visit the three wonderful shops I found for you today.  The first shop belongs to Rachel from Special from Rachel, where you will find pillows, towels, dolls, embellishments, made with new and vintage fabric.  Rachel lives in Cajun country and adds a little Cajun spice to her art.  The next shop is Sweet Liberty Primitives, where you will find tags, cards, and altered books.  Then check out the other four shops that she has for more wonderful items.  The last shop today belongs to Teresa from Teresa's Prim Treasures.  You will find stitchery, hanging pouches, appliance cover (and they can be made to order), and check out the cell phone necklaces that she makes.   Your cell phone will not be lost in the bottom of your purse!  Then please type OFG into the search bar on Etsy to find some wonderful Valentine Day items.  Gifts that will last a life time, and can be handed down to the next generation.  Nothing made in China, but made in the USA.  You will get more bang for your buck here then buying flower that will be gone in less then a week.  Stay warm and I will be back next Monday with some more wonderful shops from the Old Farmhouse Group.

Monday Market with OFG

Good Morning!  It is 2010 and I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year!  I have been putting away the Christmas decoration, and getting ready for a new year, filled with basket weaving, and quilting.  Looking forward to my son and daughter in law coming home from Afghanistan sometime this spring.
So this morning I would love for you to visit some more wonderful shops from the Old Farmhouse Group on Etsy.  We all have gifts to purchase for birthdays, wedding, and other special occasions.  Also take a minute to write down who you buy a Christmas gift for, and make some notes on what you find, and then you can start shopping.  I shop year round for Christmas gifts, then I do not have a big bill in December, and it is done.  Very easy on the budget!  The first shop I would like for you to visit is Scaredy Cat Primitives by Carrie.  She makes primitive cats, candles, and crows.  Not only is she a member of the OFG, she is also a member of the Toledo Artisan Guild.  The next shop belongs to Nancy from the Seasons of Joy.  Nance makes the most beautiful gingerbread snowflakes, that can be used year after year, and all winder long.  Great to add next to your snowmen collection, for a little winter cheer.  That last shop of you today is Sherri Berry Crafts.  Sherri makes snowman hang tags, painted blue jeans, and centerpieces.  All these shops plus the other from the Old Farmhouse Group, have wonderful items from you to use or to give away. Go to Etys and type in OFG and you will find a lot more to look.  So get something wonderful to drink, and explore the wonderful shops.  Have a great and wonderful day!
