I prefer paint instead of markers

Hey Susie Q, I ate it all, but if you come up I'll bake a fresh one for breakfast! Bob L, if you don't want pizza, we'll be sure to have some chocolate covered donuts for you.....and maybe an extra one or two for Susie Q and me!!

Thanks Deborah.... becareful what you wish for, you just might find me at your door one day, running away from Florida........ I happen to love Pennsylvania. My grandparents had a farm there where I spent many happy summers. Having been in Florida for over 40 years, I am more than ready for some WINTER.

Nancy, that idea with the gift boxes was a good one. I get ideas for color combinations and patterns from the bedding adds in the Sunday paper. All those wonderful matching comforter sets with shams etc..... have some great color schemes and Patterns. I was also quite taken with some gift wrap I was using last night and cut a piece out to go in my "idea" book. When trying to get ideas for the latest piece, I refer to this book with scraps of paper taped into it all the time.

It's so weird. Every once in a while, someone shows pics of something they carved and it actually brings tears to my eyes. This is one of them! It just amazes me how a piece of wood can turn into something so beautiful!! What a way to use the gifts God gave you Nancy!

Offer stands SusieQ, you're always welcome!

I really like your idea of an idea book, I too clip (okay clip is too neat a word....rip or tear out of magazines is more appropriate!) pictures for ideas, they are stuck in drawers, files, piles all over the place, organizing them into books is such a great idea! I could have a face book, a quilt pattern book, a toy book, etc., etc. Oh to be organized!
