SCARECROWDAZE FESTIVAL ...AND MORE ITEMS FINISHED

I actually got something acomplished this week end. I love the way the scented hot pads turned out. Great for fall and maybe TG Dinner..The smaller one even has some pumpkins and all kinds of fresh veggies printed on it....the top one on the left has Fall leaves..pumpkins..apple..acorns..corn and more..The bottom one is colorful fall leaves. I mixed up my own spices and even has pumpkin pie spice inside. When you sit a warm bowl of Potatoes or veggies on it on the dinner table you have a nice aroma. I made these candle mats from flannel and they are also padded and say "Freedom Of Worship" at the top and right under that it says "Each According To The Dictates Of His Own Conscience" The bottom left hand corner says Norman Rockwell. They can also be used to sit on a shelf like a tuck

I had a few problems when I decided to make up another batch of prim candles. After I finished rolling them in the coffee grounds and spices I dipped them to seal it only to find out the wax I had was not clear..I emailed Tonya and she was able to help me out and the one on the left is my finished one after getting advice from her (Thank You Tonya)
Then I tie a ripped piece of Homespun around and put a piece of sweet annie under the homespun...look much better finished even if this is not a good picture (Don't you all hope I get a new camera for Christmas ?) :)
They also had the Scarecrow Daze festival this week end near us. This is one of the dogs that was dressed in a costume for one of the contests in the dog show.
He is a HUGE Bloodhound dressed up like a Turtle..I don't think he liked it much and would just rather be a DOG
They had the usual food trailers everywhere and I couldn't believe it when I saw the $5.00 price for just a small funnell cake.
They also had an obedience and best tricks etc dog show and it was pretty interesting to see dogs that behave. My big Lab pups would only win the dog that jumps and barks the most. They don't get to see people very often except us so they would go crazy seeing that many people and would not like seeing other dogs getting attention :)
They also had a really cool band and I Loved their music..all country and fast beat. I especially like the way the lead guitar wore shorts..Very relaxed and it was pretty warm Sat..in the upper 80's
There was an older gentleman just having the best time dancing to the music and it was so cute because when he saw me taking his picture he waved and smiled. It was nice to see someone so happy and pleased with my kind of music...My guess would be he had to be about 80 years old but was dancing like he was 30
All in all it was a great week end with great weather..Now it is time to get busy again and finish some more items I have half finished and things I have cut out.

Hope everyone has a great week :)
