WOYWW + Windows + Giveaway

So Here is my space this week I'm starting another Pocket Letter up and these are fantastic I'm actually burning through all my Halloween papers which I've really been trying to use up all my open stock ,  as a personal mission of mine ... WHY do they make so many pretty papers. Oh yah so I can become a hoarder of papers lol and other goodies it's tough to stay limited but it does work (sometimes) I've just started getting into washi a little WOW ... I'm screwed if I start buying tons of that takes forever to go through a roll and I will use Washi for anything after I've owned it for a while.

So as Promised here is the Sun room Windows all done this gives you the feeling of it all it's Rustic, yet artistic seeing everyone know that we are very artsy fartsy  people the neighbor across the street wanted to hire us to re-do her front walk way and landscape her yard it's a nice compliment but alas we do this for ourselves. I`d be willing to help her a little in the planning stage cause that is always fun :)

Love the ceiling in here how the wood is leaking all the brown it looks so amazing to look at when your in there 

Leave another comment here for a 2nd entry in my giveaway 

it would be great if you follow along and if you could post a picture in your sidebar to share

with others winner pulled SEPT 6th

This is using Limited Runs Freebie from Facebook (it's still posted on the group if you want to join in and snag it) I Made a little ATC it will most likely end up in a pocket letter later on. Right now I only have time for quick crafting this took like 3 days to make cause I just had a little time to colour, then another day to cut out the image then today make it into something so as you can see I've been busy.

So here is one window set  all painted up and in it's place the DH is so happy with them and I mentioned to him someone called them art deco and he agreed I guess there are more art deco then I thought when I created this from a prairie style window lol 

Thanks for looking I'll try my best to get around to as many people as I can

sorry I've been a little crappy at it as I've been locked away making windows !!!

as you can see as quickly as I can

ATC - Hello

Thought I'd look online and find one of the meanings of hello 

Hello (explanation). used as a greeting or to begin a telephone conversation.

That's how this word was started funny how it wasn't around before the phone

Guess everyone said good morrow, etc..

Woyww

Happy WOYWW  here's my little space this week tissues are a must it's ragweed season here and I'm allergic to that plant. I've started on a few Christmas cards that will be flat so they can be popped into the post for the cost of a stamp to get me going and you can still see my piles of glass and that orange thing is a tool used for my stained glass it really doesn't have a name more like a thing of a ma-jiggy

So here are the one of the sets of windows I tried to take a picture so you could see the design I have finished 8 of them now just 12 more to go and it looks like I'll be waiting on supplies seeing now one has what I need in stock at the moment.... Guess I'll just have to craft instead the hard ships lol

I'll try my best to visit you all as soon as I can 

sorry if I missed you last week

hugs Nikki

WOYWW

Happy WED everyone I really try to get around and visit you all but it's tough some times so I managed to knock off 4 windows off my list WHOO HOO now to slowly work on the rest there is so much to do before they even go into the frames and cleaning them TAKES what feels like forever but it will get done. So I'll share with you what I have done so far and Helen , I was working on the floor too so your not the only girl hanging out on the floor this week :)
One of the chemicals you use when cutting glass is kerosene and I try to never have a full jar seeing I've spilled it more times then I can count ... let's just say my room smells and don't light a match on my table at the moment

The two big windows

The two little ones 

The frame they will be going into

I think I'm going to miss how much the old windows 

use to open but I'm sure these will be just fine for air flow

and look 100 times better

So on to my desk this week well I am trying to sneak in a few quick cards just 

to add to my collection and keep it stocked up it's getting low but haven't really made any did print a few digi off but haven't even coloured them up. Plans best made just not followed through ... internet surfing and wandering around blogs looking at inspiration instead lol

thanks for stopping by

hugs Nikki
