Getting the shop in order is fun!

I recently aqired a few things for The Cozy Craft Corner from a great friend Chris. A couple jewelry boxes, shelves and many stamps, and craft supplies. She has some great ideas for fun crafty things to do. Here are some pic's of the new look!
Some shelves are empty awaiting other Artists goods.

Wire Wrap display case and the table for classes and socials.

Grandma's chair!

Supplies and handmade cards.

My daughter and I covered the inside of this box so I put the foot thongs inside.

Handmade journals, my Mom made some!

This cute suitcase for a doll gets to display necklaces.
 Consignment and classes with other Artist coming soon!
             Let me know if your interested in participating in either one. Have a great day!

Wire Wrap Earrings!

Earrings are popping up in the shop! What kind of earrings do you like? I like the small ones. My daughter likes the long ones. 

I love these flowers!

Glass beads with pearls and an amethyst. 


These ones are called rain drops!

These are similar to ones I saw in Sundance Catalogue.

I made these with my Mom, taught her how to make them. She said, "I have an appreciation for what you do now."  The wire wrapping is tedious but they turn out nice.

Swarovski crystals with stars and hearts.

I have framed all the earrings in great old frames I stapled     chicken wire too. Clip them on and voila! A great display. 
Come into The Cozy Craft Corner and see for your self.

Yummy Peach and Berry Shortcake with no wheat or refined sugars!

Cut peaches up into small chunks add black berries.

Strawberries, cut them up in fours.

Strawberries and Shortbread!

Add fruit all together then put it on top of a shortbread cookie! Yummm!!!!!
This yummy treat is so easy and delicious. It has no sugar or wheat. The cookies have rice flour and agave nectar. The fruit is sweet enough as is. If you like you could make a delicious whip cream for the top. I usually make coconut whip cream. It's so easy just use the coconut milk in a can, put in the frig until the thick part of the coconut milk is on top ( maybe 20 Min) and you use only that part to mix with agave and vanilla. Whip it up and it tastes just like whip cream. We ate it so fast that I could not get a picture. Enjoy!

I am looking at decorating The Cozy Craft Corner located in Downtown Sacramento in French Country Shabby Chic style. We went yard sailing on Saturday and found a great chest for $25. 
This dresser looks kinda like the one I got at the yard sale but mine is yellow.
This inspired me to do the above mentioned style. I love the sea foam green color, yellow, purple and red. In looking for things in this style I found this cool french blog. It turns out she has combined it with another blog she had and has just the one now. It's theseasonalcottage.blogspot.com. 
I like how she has the days organized a certain way. 
Sunday~ Reflections
Monday~ Random Musings
Tuesday ~ In the Studio
Wednesdays ~ Through My Lens
Thursday's ~ French Find
Friday's ~ Food Feature
Saturday ~ Simple Pleasures
I think it would be fun to have something like this on my blog but not sure what yet. 

I am going today to look at paint colors. I found some french stencils on etsy I might get. But I also like the walls that have writing on them so instead of a design I might do words.
I like this color!

I like the color of this one, this is a color I want on the wall.
We will see how the shop turns out. I am looking forward to decorating and setting up. I officially have the shop spot as of  today! Yay!
