Here is a close up shot of the finished project
This is the calendar holder from GW.
Next I chose some coordinating scrapbook papers.
I cut twelve 12" wide strips measuring from 2"-3.75"
Next it was time to lay out the strips in a complimentary pattern.
I just used regular all purpose white glue to adhere the strips to the board.
I then cut vinyl lettering on my Silhouette using some family rules that are pretty generic. Mostly common sense rules for any household.
I did add some bling and embellishments, polka dot ribbon down the sides and some sequins and flowers to different areas. I then took some tulle and tied a bow at the top. Hopefully this is the first of many items finished before November.
I hope you all have a wonderful three day weekend.

What a great start!! Someday I will be organized enough to do a booth at a craft fair. Until then, I will live vicariously through you!!
Very nice Connie.
I think an in home bazaar sounds great. No fees, etc.
You could advertise through your church, the area schools, etc. I used to "know of" a woman that did this each year right around the beginning of Nov. She had her entire lower level set up like a store.. it even had its
own entrance. She did a lot of word of mouth business, but the local tv station did a little expo on her which really helped She was really successful and repeated the bazaar year after year.
Sounds like fun!
If I lived near you, I'd be there! You really have a lovely talent!
Love this! I always look forward to seeing what you're making for your bazaar. Wish I lived close enough to come!
You are incredible!
You see things that I think are junk and you turn it into a Masterpiece!
I love this and hope you will pin it over on pinterest so I can add it to my list of things to try! This is so beautiful and creative!
