New Toys

I went to WalMart yesterday to get cat food and toilet paper. You know, the essentials. Of course I had to walk past the scrapbooking and craft area to get what I needed ...

I found this swivel Exacto knife and a template I thought was interesting. I may use them for my Creatin' Contest kit after I saw this inspiring building.

I got the template below at Office Depot a while ago. I had never seen these before. This one is for home furnishings in 1/4 inch = 1 inch scale. How cool is that!?



These will make it much easier to build furniture for my 1/4 scale Mission house. Another future project.

The kitchen got painted yesterday but that is all I had time to do. I was looking at some purchased furniture I have and noticed that the knobs are very tiny. Now mine look too big. Why didn't someone tell me!? LOL

Anyway, I bought some really little beads that might look better? We'll see...

I did remember to get the things I went to the store to get. Sometimes I get distracted and walk out without them!

Hope you have a nice day!

Help! I lost my templates!

I was ready to glue the little fronts on the arms of my sofa this morning, but I couldn't find them?! I looked everywhere! They are so tiny! They might have been tossed the the trash with my fabric scraps?

Anyway. I had to make new ones! So again, I'm waiting for the glue to dry!

I'm having a bit of trouble with the arms of the sofa but I'm sure I'll have it done and ready to show you later! I need to find some little feet for it too...

Have you ever lost anything that you were making? Glad I made an extra template to use later!

Blessings come in all shapes and sizes!
