Wednesday's Works

I've done a slight wording change on my Wednesday title.  The perfectionist in me feels that it is more proper this way, since I plan to show you the works I've worked on AND the works I'm working on.  Now that I have you sufficiently convinced that my neurotic side is still present and accounted for, let's get down to business!

 ~*~
You may recognize this gray and yellow fabric from a coaster I made not too long ago.  That went off to live in a new home, and I hope this one will soon follow suit.  These colors together are ultra modern, and the basket is a good size at 8" across and 3.5" high.

 ~*~
I finished my makeover project from Monday, too!  Donna, we were on the same wavelength with the shape- thank you for weighing in with your opinion.  This basket is the largest I've made in a long time- 15" across and 4" tall.  Perfect on a coffee table holding magazines and remotes.  Or on the floor with a precious pup or kitty curled up all cozy!

Now I'm working on destickerizing (yes, I did make that word up) and cleaning my recent thrift finds...

...folding some special bridal shower favor boxes from vintage gift wrap...

... and preparing to crochet this dark teal fabric into something special for a certain Pez collector I know!

How about you?  What have you finished lately, and what are you working on now?

Co-inky dink!


Last week, I sold this fun little item in sosovintage. I was a little sad to see it go- it made me happy just to see it in my shop. As luck would have it, I found the one pictured above a few days later! Coincidence? Fate? Whatever the case, I'm thrilled to have another one to put on the cyber-shelf. What do you have on your shop or home shelf that just makes you smile?

New Treasures Coming Soon

I cleared out my photo room! Well, OK, not the whole room - I'm not superwoman. But, enough of the room so that when I go to take photos of items, I don't have to shuffle loads of stuff all over the place. I was so excited to take pictures this morning! Here's a preview of just a few of the goodies coming to sosovintage today and tomorrow.
