Made a Purple Witch Tree
Comments (15)Karen, you just made me remember that I bought DGD the 4ft lilac tree at JoAnn's a few years ago. Maybe I can borrow that instead of her sister.LOL Hope you and your DGD enjoy the colored trees. The witch on the right side is being very naughty (she is my tree topper) that won't stay on w/o fall off. Here's a close up of her. I still have alot more witches but need to go dig them out. Interesting story my MIL told me today. She was talking to a lady that cleans up after fires and she said everyone so far has had a kitchen witch in it.Dododo Luvs, you have a great memory. I did do alot of decorating last year for Halloween. I donated some of my decorations and hope to get through the rest and donate what I don't put up. Haven't talked with DGD today so don't know how her game went. Thought they might come down but so far, no show or call. Jeanne, she is kinda creepy, especially after hearing DMIL story. I will keep all of them out of the KITCHEN. DGD is so special and she is so sincere. I ask her if she was starting kindergarten this year and she said NO. So I said "maybe you will learn your ABC's and learn to count to 100 if you go to preschool again." She looked at me and said "Nana, really, are you kidding?" I got that award over 2 years ago. OA, it took 2 cans of Krylon spray paint. We do have a Wagner sprayer but I rattle canned it in no time at all. I thought it might be blobby and stick together put it's nice and I'm still able to fluff it. I only have 2 gkids and wish I had a dz. Since she is the only one around, I try to spend alot of quality time with her. I haven't seen our gson for 5 years. I just send lots of gifts and put money in his savings acct. Thanks ladies and I will get back to reading all your posts. It's been busy on here or I'm slowing down. Punk...See MoreKitchen Witch Pattern???
Comments (6)Here are the instructions I use to make my kitchen witches. Kitchen Witch Items needed: * metal gingerbread man cookie cutter * spanish moss * black felt or bought felt witch's hat * orange material for skirt * thin orange ribbon * black material * glue * trim Directions: Fold black material in half, cut a slit and slide over head. With thread, sew a running stitch through the top of one edge of the orange material and gather around the waist. Stitch in place. Glue orange ribbon over the stitches. Cut pieces of ribbon long enough to be suspenders and glue in place. Glue spanish moss to top of cookie cutter. Glue witch's hat to spanish moss. Or, if using black felt, cut a circle the diameter you wish the hat to be. Cut a wide triangle of felt, wrap to form a cone, and glue to circle. Glue to spanish moss. Glue desired trim in place....See MoreFavorite Kitchen Accessories?
Comments (23)Books! In fact I was rearranging my kitchen shelves today. When we remodeled our kitchen, we added a big built-in bookcase on one wall. Originally I had cookbooks on one shelf and random decorative items (lots of pottery) on the others, but it was bugging me that there weren't enough books there. I like to be able to grab a book (not necessarily a cookbook) to leaf through while waiting for something to cook, or for a friend who's hanging in the kitchen to be able to do the same. So now I have a few different genres of books in my kitchen. I have the cookbooks, of course, and I have a small section of music books, another of knitting books (DD and I are obsessed with knitting right now), some decorating books, and some reference books (since my kids do their homework in the kitchen, having the dictionaries there makes sense). My other favorite "accessory" is a vase of fresh flowers on the table. I recently started buying an inexpensive bouquet at the grocery store each week during this long and snowy winter, and it makes me happy! Finally, on one of my shelves, serving as a bookend, is my grandmother's old cookie jar....See MoreStruggling on what color range for our kitchen?
Comments (25)I LOVE orchilvr's kitchen - it's a great inspiration pic for you. The black would look super. We struggled with our TurboChef door colour - debated between red and a shade of green. In the end we did a custom red that's deeper and richer than the standard red they offer. I think it works well with the sage green cabs, light golden colour tile floors and soapstone (but then again I am *very* partial to red!) Here's a pic I came across of a green range and hood - food for thought... Have you looked at the RAL chart on the BS site...so many to choose from! (I know I know - that is part of the problem, right?) The best advise you've received is that it should be a colour you love, becasue it's an expensive investment. Good luck! Eliz...See MoreAcorna
