I’m all ready for my Christmas show…spent most of yesterday cleaning up my crafting mess that was on one end of our dining room table. Thanksgiving will be at our home this year…so still lots of cleaning and cooking to do…and baby proofing going on here.
Now that I’m all done crafting…our little grandson can go into the dining room. Our living room and dining room are open to each other, but when I’m working in there…it isn’t safe for him to be in that room around my crafting stuff, so we block that area off. Now that this area is not blocked off anymore, I need to move one very important thing out of the dining room…
…my sugar bucket collection.
I have my stack of sugar buckets sitting on a little chair in my dining room…did this to keep that cute little doggie of mine from chewing on them. And now I need to move them to keep my cute little grandson from knocking them over. He loves to sit on a little foot stool that I have and I’m pretty sure that he is going to want to sit on this little chair too. So tomorrow’s chore is to move my sugar bucket collection up high…either onto the mantel of the fireplace or the top of the book shelves in the living room. Guess I’ll have to see which place I like the best.
On Saturday…I went to a craft show with my hubby and my sister. The show was ok, but a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be. There were a few prim/primitive booths…my sister got a prim doll, and snowman box for outside by her front door, and a wood sheep. I also couldn’t pass up this cute prim sheep…
When I purchased it…I thought that I would put the sheep on my front door come Spring, but I found the perfect place for it in my dining room…so that is where it is staying for now. Cost me only $8.00 and this sheep is a large piece.
I received some sad news this week…I have a very close blogging friend named Cheryl and her mother passed away. I know that she reads several of your blogs and some of you have met her at some primitive shows…please keep her in your thoughts and prayers as she goes through this difficult time.
Until next time……. blessings, Cindy

I’m sorry to hear about Cheryl’s mom
Regarding the sugar buckets….they remind me of nesting cups I had as a child….no, it would not be good to leave these out. They are beautiful though!
Good luck at your show – I know you will do great
Happy Turkey Day!
