Hanging out!

I have seen these floating around blogland and Esty. LOVED THEM!! I finally got around to making some. My friend, Steph, is getting married, so I whipped up a little gift for her to hang her dress on. Hope she likes it (wouldn't it be adorable to have the whole wedding party hang their dresses on their own hanger!)

All wrapped up:

What a SURPRISE!!

Today, a co-worker's husband dropped off some goodies to me! They live in a VERY old house and she found this stuff in her basement:

An egg basket with some old glass milk bottles...

A box of mason jars- with blue tints!! OH MY, it must be CHRISTMAS!! And there are all different sizes!!!! I am so excited I almost forgot to tell you that a very important wall came down in our house today. Who cares about walls when you have blue mason jars!
