About Me

My photo
I am a retired home economics teacher, mother and grandmother. I live in Cajun country although I am not Cajun, but I have been here long enough to learn to cook some pretty tasty cajun dishes. I started making rag dolls when I was a little girl and have continued over the years to love to create many different items. I also love to visit antique shops and flea markets looking for different treasures.

Creative Hands and Co. Craft Show

Have we had a weekend!  My talented friends and I had our first craft show in our little town and we were very pleased with the outcome.  My daughter Mary Elizabeth and I along with three of my grandchildren set up and decorated our booth Friday afternoon out at the Coushatta Indian gym.  We were back out there early Saturday morning to start selling.  Mary Elizabeth made crosses from wood, unusual sticks, wire and beads,  primitive Christmas tags, various   scriptures which were printed in the shape of crosses and manager scenes and names of men encased in computerized pictures of fishing and hunting scenes.  I had my dolls, pillows, santas, tea towels, button pins, blue jean purses, appliqued tote bags and etc.  My  Chole and J.T. sold old time woven pot holders, candy and brownies and Elizabeth painted kids faces.   People  came by to look and we had such fun catching up on what was going on in their lives.  They liked our things and bought many of them.  Thanks so much to all my friends for their support!.
