Tea Wallet With Paper Bead Charm

Since the cooler weather has decided to stay for a while, I've gone through a lot of coffee.
Now, don't get me wrong I love coffee but sometimes tea is a nice treat! 
Last month I discovered Bigalow tea ( vanilla chai )  LOVE IT!!! While on their website I saw they carried a "tea wallet".  I looked at it & thought I could make one.
While doing a google search I found a lady who has a wonderful free pattern . http://blog.christyscreations.com/tea-wallet-tutorial/
Very easy to make, lot of fun too!  I added a paper bead charm on the button.
There is enough room for 4 tea bags and sweetner too.

Popcorn Popcorn (The Bear)

My wonderful son who is in 1st grade had art class last week, & the assignment was to paint a bear.
Anyone who has a child knows when homework,classwork,artwork... is sent home its cramed into their bookbags.  Lets just say popcorn had a few winkles.  I loved it so much I decided to put it on a canvas that I had in my craft room.  A little black paint, modpodge, and LOVE ..... We have a new painting for the house.  total cost around $4.00 for the Canvas. (cheaper than a frame and mat since the painting is large)  I think it going to look good hanging in his bathroom!

Holidays and New Years

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Years.  I know we had one. 

I like to share one of my Christmas gifts that my DH got me: One-yard wonders book
I can't wait to make a few things that are in here!!!
