PUMPKIN THYME!!

 

Oh yeah baby it's "PUMPKIN THYME" @ the Funky Farmhouse!!!

 

Can ya digg it?

I designed these lil beauties from my head and had a blast making them!

 

 

I hand sewed the pumpkin and added the sweet lil mouse. This one is made from 2 different vintage materials I got thrifting. I added the fancy bling and BOOM it's a PUMPKIN!!

 

This lil beauty is up cycled from 2 different dresses and the lace is from an old vintage slip that was cut off.  They are a pretty good size measuring 10 inches across. Once again I have a lot of hand sewing into them. Sure helped me out while on the couch!! LOL

 

 

I truly love how these turned out. They are exactly as I saw them in my head!! So glad of that!! LOL My daughter Brooke is in love with them. Do you think Cinderella would love them too?

 

 I have them sitting in my living room and the gold one matches my living room so perfect!! but I will putting them in my shoppe later!!

 

Keep on Keepin on!!

XOXO Love Fran.

Check out my groovey treasures!!

Here are some of my treasures I got from the Yard and Antique Sale. The bottle is an old Wine Bottle and I plan on putting all white and cream buttons in it. I got a couple of pieces of fabric. I fell in love with the old deer salt n pepper shakers. The glass candle holders will be made into Redneck Beer Glasses. Seems like lately alot of people have been having me make them for them. I got a prim candlestick light, alittle box for altering, and a twig basket.

In this bundle I got an old scrapbook with cool stuff inside. Some old Little Golden Books, three hangers with ads on them. The wooden butter scoop, roller, old vege brush, and slotted spoon I would like to put in an old crock. I love glass jars and these were really cute. As you can see I am going to take all of the lampshade material off and alter it up.

 

And these little beauties are gonna be pin cushions and birds nests. I got a few other things too. I didn't get alot of clothing but a I did get a few. I also got some goodies for a baby shower I am going to on Sunday. Like I said this always gets my mojo going and I can't wait to get busy!! I hate to keep blaming the heat on everything but I really need to organize my craft room! It has just been to darn hot to do it!! I had a few appointments this week and my little orange car is broken!! Sad face!! I am using my MIL's car. My car is in the shop. I can't wait to get it back, but I appreciate that I have a car I can use. Thanks for looking!! XOXO Love, Fran.  





Check this little cutie out and a few other things I got!!

This is what I got on our date on Saturday to the Antique mall!! It was one of those things you walk right up to and just know you're gonna buy it!! And we did!! LOL After I finish this spot up in the yard I'll show more. Right now I have my pansies in there I haven't planted yet. Our Michigan weather has been alittle chilly still and I haven't wanted to be outside planting!! LOL We had a great date and was gone all day. I had to laugh at myself I was in bed and asleep before 9:00 pm!! 

 

These also came from the Antique Mall. I love this potholder and it has the colors of my kitchen in it. And I also have this thing about jars!! LOL And I loved the shape of this one and the zinc lid. The prairie doll I just had to have!! LOL She's so sweet!! She is upcycled from clothes on part of her. I always like that!!

Can you believe I got this awesome Prim and Grubby Sweet Annie salt shaker doll from a Boy Scout Fund raiser sale at the Catholic Church!! I love these kinda sales cuz people donate some great stuff!!

I love old vintage sewing things! And this tomato pincushion is so cute. I have quite a few pin cushions but there's always room for one more!! LOL And the apron pattern is so vintage and looks easy to make.

Here are a few more things I got too. Some birdies for my nests I make and a pie plate and this wooden pig! Isn't he cute? I think Pigs and Cows are making come back!!

I also got this vintage coffee can and some more salt shakers, a cute dog, and wooden spools! I'll be planting in the coffee can. I had an awesome vintage thrifting week!!

 And this sweet rag doll is my newest creation! She'll be in my Esty Shoppe this week!! She is smaller than my other ones. I had alot of fun creating and designing her! Her name is "Libbie Rose" and her dress material also came from the Antique Mall but I couldn't wait to use it!! You can see it on the tray I have her on. It's really pretty. She is all hand stitched!! The sun was perfect today for some grubby thyme outside!!! Alittle chilly but still sunny!! I'm lovin it!!

XOXO Love, Fran.
