Lane End Table

As I said in my previous post, I am trying to get some of the many projects I have started ...done. I am almost done with this end table.

Edit to add: Thank you for the suggestions!

Here's where I am so far:

Almost done :-)

I'll be at these parties this week:

Projects I've been Working On (and not working on)

I've been trying to be good and finish up projects that have been sitting around waiting to be done and I keep getting sidetracked :-(

I went by where my shop used to be to visit some friends and Barbara at Once in a Blue Moon gave me three wooden boxes. They were begging to be painted.

So...here's box # 1

And this little cabinet is still sitting patiently waiting for me to finish it.

Hope you're having a great week!

Paws for a Cause Part Deux (Picture Heavy)

TSA has nothing on my two fur kids! Both days when I got home from the Paws for a Cause event I was searched, sniffed, prodded and pawed and promplty ignored. Until I pulled out the home made dog biscuits and other treats I purchased from Bow Wow-Meow Boutique.

I was really impressed that most dogs walked really well through the confusion of scents and people and I saw very few people being walked by their dogs :-) Did see quite a few dogs who had found a shady spot and refused to move.

The weather was absolutely perfect for the event except it was a little on the warm side yesterday. There was a great turnout and I hope lots of money was raised.

I am by no means an authority on dog breeds. So if you see a breed mislabeled, please let me know :-)

Please support your local SPCA/Humane Society.

Here are a few more pictures of the friends I made :

The Event-Paws for a Cause

Yesterday at early thirty I was on my way to set up a booth at "Paws for a Cause" which helps our local SPCA. It was a blast! There were dogs (and people) of every breed and I have a front row seat for the Dock Dogs jump :

This guy couldn't wait for his turn :-) It was so much fun watching the dogs get ready to jump-they were so excited and I could see the adrenelin pumping. Then their handler would throw the toy in to the pool and the dog would go airborne after the toy.

Today is the wrap up and I am excited about going!

Hope you're having a great weekend!
