Heart-shaped novelty purses for Valentine's

I was  absent for awhile from my blog doing  personal business and was very busy with Christmas crafts and had little time to devote time to the blog since October. Now I am starting with my Valentine's crafts but I have some crafts from last year that I am posting here and I finishing a few more in a few days. 

I have a beautiful china tea set that has pastel flowers on the tea pot and tea cup that I put on my counter that I put flowers that I make out of coffee filters in the tea cup. It really adds color to the place since I took down the Christmas decorations.   I made  denim cuffs last year that have different embellishments on them and toying the idea about putting them in Etsy.  They are sooo jewelry makers out there, the competition is tough.

I was on hiatus for the summer.....

I took a loong break during the summer and now I am so ready and eager to do my favorite crafts for fall.  I already started some autumn crafts and I for one am so glad that summer will be over soon,

I don't know about anybody else but this summer was a scorcher in the midwest.  Reading news stories I think that 80% of the country had experienced the hottest temperatures ever for a season.  I am looking for cooler weather and everything that fall brings.  So....I have busy the last week decorating my small apartment.  Wherever you look the warm colors are apparent; red, oranges, gold, green and brown.   I feel warm inside too looking at the vibrant colors.   I hope you like decorations and feel free to comment about anything you see.  It's great to blog again.
