Well, I have finished my sons Military base felt mat. I am going to add pictures so everyone can see my final project. I have made a bunch of other things that I can put on here as well. It took me 3 days to get it how I wanted it. First day was mostly planning it out and getting it laid out and making sure I had everything like I wanted it. The 2nd day was gluing everything down. The third day was adding the finishing touches on it. With them being at my moms I had time to get it done! I really dont know what I would of done if they were not there. We did a family Christmas with my side of the family and he opened it up there and this was the best present I think I could ever have given him. Good to know that 3 days working on it paid off!!! If he goes to my moms he has it with him when hes here its always playing with it. When he goes to my sisters he has it with him as well. I'm just glad it was well worth it. I am just glad that 3 days of bending over the thing in the floor is done as well. I made a note to self that if I do another one I will take over the table and do it on there or my husband is going to have to build me a table big enough for my craft room. With back problems its really bad to be bending over it in the floor. My daughter is now wanting one for girls. So have to do some hard thinking on this one. I was not a girly girl and she is so now its training for me. Ok, I guess its time for the picture of the mat so you can see what I have made. 


This is the mat!!! Just a few things I thought of while being in the military and my husband doing 14 yrs he also helped come up with some of the things that needed to be on there. Just mainly the necessary things like housing, schools, park, hospital, police, fire dept, headquarters, vet, commissary, exchange, food court, post office, church, and mini mall, and of course the motor pool for him to work on his military vehicles. Just had a lot of fun doing this.

I have also made a few more things like hair bows. I have made big hair bows for bigger girls and baby bows for your babies. The baby bows also work for you animals that you dress up. I will post pics of them as well. 






























I also do some crocheting I have made head bands, scarfs, and started an afghan. I am going to try a stocking cap and a stocking. We will have to see how they turn out. I will post pics of what I have finished. I really enjoy crafting. 




I have 2 other colors just could not find the pics of them. I have made bow holders. I will put those pics up as well.


I make candles which are so much fun to do as well. I will put up some of the ones I have made.













These last 2 pics that I am going to post are my decorations for fall and Halloween that I did.  I made the hat and put the center piece together.  


Thank you for your time on looking at my pictures and reading my rambling. I really hope you enjoyed my blog tonight. 

I sell everything I make so if you see something you like just let me know and I can let you know a price on the stuff you are interested in.
