Busy as a Bluebird!


It seems my craft room is beginning to fill with the colors I love most. A passion for patriotic has me busy as a bluebird. An easy as can be craft for anyone to make, a tutorial for this feathered friend can be found on my sidebar. (Tutorial for making Bluebird found here


I know! Too too sweet for words! We need a marching band to follow behind Laurie of Magpie-Ethel and her joyous 4th of July creations.


Just to hold in hand one of her characters is to bring joy to the heart and inspiration to the mind. How clever that she has used Christmas reflectors as red, white, and blue flowers to bloom well past the fourth.


I trimmed her reflectors to create hanging ornaments and used the sparkly garland leftovers to add cheer to my Sanitary ice cream cup. Delicious? I hope so!


Just a quick stop by to wish you all things bright and sparkly until Thursday evening at 8pm when I will offer for sale E's Craftroom Creations. Until then...... Busy as a Bluebird here at Creative Breathing.
