Labeling Rugs ~

I finished the binding on Pearl and Earl.  

I thought I would really be on the ball and sew on the label I printed off a couple weeks ago.  Well, I've looked high and low and it is nowhere to be found :(  However, in looking for Pearl & Earl's label, I did find these I have printed over the years and never sewed on.

My goal for May is to sew on labels.  I've gotten three done.  Here they are before staining with coffee . . . 

. . . and after.  I just like them better than stark white.

Here is where I shared how I make my labels.  If you want to make really cool labels, check out how Saundra makes hers here.

I recently saw a milk glass dish like this somewhere on Facebook.  I stumbled upon one for only $5 so it had to come home with me.  It is perfect for holding scissors, hooks and this pin cushion made by dear friend Julia in South Carolina.  It looks like it was made for this dish.

We finally had a dry, sunny day today so a little yard work was done, but oh, boy, there is much more to do.  My yard is small, but I have lots of flower beds that need my attention.  It will get done . . . eventually . . . but I get a little antsy to get the initial clean up finished.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
