Oops.. it's been too long...


My goodness the holidays haven't even begun and I am getting busy. It is so amazing how a little 3 year old can make your life so much busier. Once your children become teens they seem to be so independent and require very little of you, well except money. They seem to need more money the older they get!!

Well hubby has a new hobby. He is casting metal. Aluminum to be precise. He is wanting badly to make something that can be incorporated into my primitive decorating. If anyone has any ideas, please send them this way. I just can not figure out anything for him to make. Pictures would be awesome too!!

Well I will update again after Halloween with pictures of the fam... don't worry I haven't forgotten about pictures of my samplers. I have been going to the GW and purchasing frames to put samplers in so I will have quite a few to share.

Until next time. Primitive blessing to you...

Tavern signs


So here I am writing my first blog. How exciting!!!

Well how do I start? Let's see. I guess I'll start with my tavern/inn signs. As you see in the picture my husband and I have recreated an inn sign. This is our third sign we have painted. I'll have to get pictures of the other two and post them.

Our interest in the tavern signs began because hubby is a home brewer. For those of you who haven't heard of that before, my hubby brews his own beer. This is where his interests and my interests cross paths. I LOVE Early American and he LOVES brewing beer. So it would only seem natural that we both would LOVE the Early American tavern/inn signs. So with his woodworking skills and my painting we started making these signs for our home and to sell.

I have several more signs lined up to be painted. I'll be sure to post pictures of them as I paint them. Thank you for taking the time to come by my little piece of the blogging community. Hope to see you back again.
