JEWELRY BAGS

Yesterday a few of us got together and had a little luncheon. My friend set a beautiful table and everyone brought something. I was suppose to bring homemade rolls but....ahhhh...

.I was busy running around with my husband until the last minute, so I ended up getting French Bricquets at Penara Breads. What was a gal to do?

 The food was great but the little gifts were just awesome. The hostess made these cute jewelry bags. Adorable huh???

I had such plans today when I got up, pulled out my fabrics, ironing board...had a mess from here to kingdom come.....

 Husband comes downstairs and says..."Let's go to breakfast"...

no need to ask this girl twice.... By the time we got home it was late in the afternoon....lost my motivation but I did use her jewelry bag as a pattern and made this...

Another friend made these...isn't it adorable????


Just found out that my one son in Hawaii has a job prospect here in DC after he graduates in Dec.  Now ask me if I am excited to move to Texas?

Are you excited or what?
Great gift ideas Clever friends

Very cute. And, I'm quite happy your son in Hawaii has a job prospect near you, but I agree - not great timing with your pending move to Texas. Still, I think you are going to end up being a Southern Gal too!

I feel your pain. We moved to Atlanta to live near one of our sons. He and his wife finally adopted a baby at the same time my husband got a job in Florida. So far I am staying put cause I just can't bear to leave them just yet! Good luck whatever your future brings!

Both the bag and doily are lovely , lucky you to receive such sweet gifts . Maybe you will have to reconsider moving :-(

The little bags are so cute! I love the little doll. At least your son will be closer than when he was in Hawaii.

Cute jewelry bags. Love the crocheted angel! I like anything with pineapples actually.

At least your Son will be closer/easier to visit.

I love drawstring bags. Any size. They are an addiction
