COLOR...

Hello new thread cones!!!  Welcome to my home!

  I got these darling little jars from my daughter-in-law, (thank you, Brook), and couldn't resist ordering thread to match!  Notice how each one is numbered and they have little lids on them....so dang cute!
Then I had to thumb through all my crocheted squares, yes, that's the only shape I know how to crochet....and stack them up so I can drool over them....again!  I do this quite often.
And just because I'm in a COLOR mood I had to stack my gift towels up on my colorful ironing board, folded just right, so I can "ahhhhh" over the cute bindings.
Oh, how I love color!!!

    1. I got paint to match, too. I've painted a cupboard and a shelf with the pretty blue & aqua. They aren't filled with anything right now. They did have fun little candies in them, but I love the idea of spices, like yours.

    1. Double rats!!! I love them....I guess I don't need to keep saying that. Right now they're empty but I'm thinking of moving them into my kitchen to put spices in them. Good luck! Let me know if you find any!
