@ Berry Mountain School House
As you know we love our “JUNK”.
So let me tell you What this swap is all about?
We all have stuff and we, as women tend to change our mind,
some of us quite often.
So we will bring our stuff and put it in a big pile ….. And then we get to go shopping for treasures from the pile!
If you bring 10 items, then you get 10 clothes pins to go shopping with.
If you bring 7 items you get 7 clothes pins, ( got it?)
This started from a blog we stalk that does this semi annually.
But we are going to have a little twist .
We are asking for a $5.00 donation from each of you to given a different charity annually, this time we will
Be given to Cleveland Elementary School.
This will be a fun way to shop with out spending any money, enjoy some yummy food, and send your loved - used treasures to a new happy home, while meeting new friends and helping out people who need it!!!!
The most important rules are as follows:
Up to 10 items can be brought per person. Items can be used, old or new,
You get the idea, right?
Items need to be loved but cared for.
All items will be placed together then we will shop by placing clothes pins on the items we hope to take home. If items get more than one pin, there will be a drawing….this will be exciting!
At the end of the swap, you may leave your unwanted items to be donated to Hope House.
If you would like to join us please let Tonya or Jerri know, so we will have enough clothes pins and Yummy food ! ! ! !

Tonight was our Funky Junky Chicks Craft Night!

And Yes we created pumpkins.

These are a few pumpkins that our ladies made.

All are different and unique.

They are made out of sweaters and alittle poly fill.

Stay tuned for a supply list for next month soon.

August Craft

This was one of the items the ladies made last month.

August was all about jars and what could be done with a jar.

We covered a Mason/Ball jar with old sewing patterns, and then added a number.

One lady added a Halloween looking House in black.

It was all ready for a candle and the flickering of  some Halloween spirit.

This month we will carry on the fall crafting.

So check your closet for a fall colored or white sweater/jacket.

Bring it along with a stick, fiber fill  and a  needle and thread.

Remember the sweater will be cut up, so it can have a stain or rip in it.

We will be re-purposing it.

This was a project from a few months ago.

We loved the look of these canister to hid all that stuff we collect.

You know what I mean,

 that pile of stuff you can't get rid of but you are not sure what to do with it.

Well, you can hid it in this canister till you figure that out...

LOL
