the 2 little birdhouses

OK... Can someone turn off the rain! It's been raining all week, and I'm a little over it! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE THE RAIN......But this is a bit much! ..... I've written this blog once already....the power went out, and I lost the post! But I'm back......
........So............
I only got 2 birdhouses done yesterday.... I used the lefts overs from the signs I've been making. I haven't showed you the other signs I made yet (The rain has totally killed my picture taking skills...Everything is just so dark!) .......I used the tongue compressor sticks to do these. Not used sticks, but I guess you could use those, too..... You can buy a 'fresh' bag from the craft store:) Anyways..... Here they are in all their glory... As you can tell, I'm not all that thrilled with them, but they will work...... I made some different ones today, but they still need roofs.... I probably won't get to them though until later in the weekend. Tomorrow, I have to spend the day with the doctors...and then Saturday..... Get this!!! There's actually going to be a dollhouse show in my town!! Well, not in my town, about an hour away, and I'm excited.... I just hope the 'tests' tomorrow don't wear me out too much! I really, really want to go to the show!!!

Next is the bottle of crackle medium I've been using.... I do believe it came from Michael's, but It was quite some time ago! I've used it a lot, and I've only been through 1/4 of the bottle.... It seems to last forever.

And then we have kitty pics! I have LOTS of kitty pics, just don't want to go overboard with this whole sharing thing...SO here are a few of my favorites:

First is Jasper........ He's upside down because that is how he was sleeping.... He's soooo freaking sweet!


And what about another pic of Freddy? Here he is sleeping in a brown paper bag full of magazines...


And then there's Rufus (Fred and Jasper's Daddy!) .....Ever time I see this pic in my picture file, it cracks me up! I just love how they sit on their butts like this..... so funny!

Ok then...Here's me wishing all of you a wonderful weekend!! :)

Until Next Time...........

You do have the best kitty pics. They are always so funny!! You sure they don't "strike a post" just for you?:)

I think the birdhouses turn out real well. Thanks for showing the crackle finish bottle. :)
