I have some invites left!  PM me your email and I'll send it!

Thank you

Oh - does anyone have a pinterest invite they can send me?  I have to admit, I am finally curious and want to try it out!

[sew in velcro - white, black, red, green or blue]

I claim bsonlytoots for a set of snack bags and some supplies.

This is my 5th claim with 0 sent and 3 received.

My name is Mimi and I am a stay at home mom in West Palm Beach, FL.  I love practical, useful items for myself or for my 2 year old son, Sky.  Love nature and nature inspired items.  Favorite colors are green, blue and brown.  I also like red accents.  Favorite things are octopus, birds and trees.   Really, I adore those 3 things so if you send something with any of those themes, chances are I will really like it.  Most of my house is decorated in hand made items so I always love wall art or other decor.

I knit, sew, embroider and hope to get back to doing stained glass when my son starts school.   

I am not a girly person and don't use much bath & body stuff other than bubble bath and bar soap.  I am also not a fan of country, babyish or animal prints.  PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME ANYTHING PURPLE OR PINK.  I also don't do jewelry or niknaks.  I am not huge on floral scents or anything too ruffle-y or frilly.  Also don't like scary themed items or religious items.  If you smoke anywhere near your crafting please pass on claiming me.   


Crafts:

Love the colors and the concept of these flowers!

This quote done either similar to this or in your own special way!

This would look great in my craft room.  Doesn't need to be the quilted panel (I can do that part), just the embroidery.

8x10 black and white artwork of any utensils to hang in my kitchen.  A big spoon or fork would be great - or a spork!!

Some vinyl cuts to decorate my new sewing machine similar to this idea!

Birdie Art!

Button tree!! Doesn't have to be just like this but something similar would be awesome!

Owl Pillow but in green or blue instead of purple

A fun ring holder to hold my wedding ring that sits on my bathroom counter since I never wear it

More Tree art!!

How cute is THIS?!?

Curtain Tie Backs similar to these (in red or brown)

Paper roses or other flower to stick in a vase

*Warning - huge wish!!* Something similar to THIS designed to hang on the wall

A toddler sized backpack for my son.  You would be my hero if you could do something with trains on it - maybe similar to this one (although I would prefer his name not be on it):

T shirts - size medium, or large if they are fitted.  Please no unisex or jrs. shirts.  I like stenciled, embroidered or dyed.  Maybe a shirt with a little bird on the front side?  Or a robot?  Or a tree!!
