Tinkerbell Pipkin

Yesterday, one of my friends came over for me to teach her how to make a Pipkin.


I hadn't made one for Courtney yet, so decided she'd get this one!! It turned out really nice:) The top says "NEVER GROW UP". I am using a scrap to make her a bookmark later.

Teacher group gifts



These were fun hand-outs I made to invite the Preschool parents to contribute to the teacher group gifts. I had such a great response! I feel it was due mainly to the invite being so eye-catching...for the parents:)

Alaskan Pipkins

I enjoy altering lunch boxes. I actually made dozens of them a few years ago and sold them at numerable Craft Fairs in the area.


My father fondly named them "Pipkins"for me. So, the name has stuck! This is one custom order: identical Alaskan Pipkins. The first picture is of the side and front. The second is of the back and front. I was tickled, I was able to make them sooo identical! Click on image to see more detail.

Oohh oohh, invite me! Invite me!

I custom made 15 invitations. To the left, is the inside view. And to the right, is the fun front. Boy, before I say "yes" to another custom order, I need to know what I'm getting into!! PHEW. It was the most involved (time consuming) card I could have made.

"Christian" Teacher gift sets

These were two "thank you" gifts I made for Courtney's teachers at Calvary Preschool. They include
a 2 year pocket planner, a notebook (with a scripture on the front), and a magnetic calendar with matching pen. Click image to enlarge for more detail.







The pocket planners say "I am a child of God". They turned out so nice I made one for myself...which I never do!
