It's Frivolous Friday. A time Webster describes as "Not having any serious purpose or value".
Well, I'm sure you will agree that today's post has no purpose. There is not really any great value in it. I just found some things I liked and thought today would be a good day to share them with you. I want my daughter to make me some of these necklaces and bracelets for spring and some of the barefoot sandals for the beach this year....(she just doesn't know it yet.) Here are some of the things I like...
I am still aggravated with our weather. Rain, storms, warm, cold, finally a little snow last night. I was going to do some January decorating with snowmen around the house but the sunny weather kept putting it out of the mood so I didn't go buy anything. We are almost half way into the month so I'm not going to now. But here were some things I was thinking about getting. Some look pretty easy to make so I'm going to put them on my craft "to do" list for this year so I'll have them next year.
Every year, I want to craft something I can change for each month. This year, I think I will make some little plastic canvas birdhouses. Here is one I made for my beach room. But I want to make one for each season to put in my office. I love sitting them in the little beaded wreaths.
When I make these birdhouses, I like the bird house "hole" to be some type of button. So I found some for each month that go with the theme of the month. I have seen tons of them I like at Joann Fabrics and I have a lot already, but here are some ideas for each month.
Each birdhouse takes one hour to do and I usually do them at night while I'm watching TV. I'm going to cut them out this weekend and get January's done so I can sit it out. I'm almost finished with my sisters box so I will probably get it done tonight or tomorrow. Speaking of my sister, she inspired me to put my stuffed cat in the kitchen when I saw she had put hers in there. So I put him in this little wagon with a plant. As soon as I can get to Walmart, I want to get a clay pot to use instead of a mason jar and I want some dried flowers instead of the plant. But this will do for now. I didn't realize my cat would match my tea for one set. I'm loving it.
I love this adorable necklace.

Well, now that I've taken up part of your day with my useless chatter, I'll close by wishing you a great weekend.
