We are all tizzied up and ready for the holiday rush!

I can be quite creative when I put my mind to it....

so when I spotted some Deer antlers I bought the lot 

with decorating the shop in mind.... and after some 

tizzying with calico

Here is one of the pairs....

Would look great hanging from the mantle over a fireplace.

I have three of these in different sizes

and 5 singles.....

I also got my sewing arm on and, after seeing Judes bunting

www.judequiltcreations.blogspot.com

I learnt how to make them with the easy step by step guide

thanks Josie Crafter!

So with the help (or hinderance) of my 12 year old son, Mackenzie

 (he had to do the sewing machine pedal)

I made two lots of 5 metres for the shop windows.

Here is the finished product with a set of antlers....

And the other window..... sorry for the glare!

So on Sunday 13th November we will be celebrating

 our 2nd birthday.

Here are some of the new pieces in store now.....

 with original tiles and mirror and display shelf.

Now this 19th century Bayonet Training Mask is a very unusual piece.

The padding is stuffed with Horse Hair and the mask

 is hand crafted in steel and leather.
