Ohhh Happy Day!!!

So what is the occasion that I am so happy about? .....did we win the lottery.....did all my kids get straight A's...... did Auburn win Saturday???? NO, No, and I think Auburn is done for the year and we are looking to next year...anyway.... The good news Is GOODWILL!!!!! We just got a goodwill less than 5 miles from my house, and it is really nice!!! I went last week with 10 dollars in hand and 3 things in mind that I wanted to come home with

1. a fall centerpiece for me entry table
2. something to put my hairdryer and straightner in
3. something to put our many loaves of bread in (5 kids+ brown bag lunch everyday= a lot of bread)
   

This is what I got. Some really tacky brass candlesticks, a fall wreath that that was missing some of the leaves, a brassy gold planter, and a really large metal box of somekind.........possibly even an old breadbox.......hmmm





Ohh how I love spraypaint!! One quick coat and you can't even tell that these were brass!! I just took the wreath and put the sparse section to the back so you can't even tell!!!



Yet another "G" emblem....I just can't help myself, and this thing holds like 5 loaves of bread!! All I did on this was add the g with the paintpen. I actually liked the rustic top...for now. I will probably do something else to it before too long.


Spraypaint again. I used some silver spraypaint to this planter, and BAM!!! I am so excited about my new Goodwill!!! I will be making weekly trips.

Happy Fall Y'all

I thought I would share my front porch with y'all. It was very easy and CHEAP!!! I used some of my Fancy Farm stuff, and then some other fall decorations. The garland over the door is just a grapevine wreath that I cut in half and unwound...unwinded...uh straightened out!!?;P Then I just added a 3 dollar leaf garland from Wal-Mart. The pumpkins are fake from Michael's and I just used a paint pen to monogram them. Have a great Day!! I must get back to the basement and fill orders Don't forgrt to go check out www.fancyfarmdesigns.blogspotcom and enter my giveaway!!!

Big Announcement

Don't forget about my BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!! I am going to make it today at 5 oclock....ohhh I am so excited!!!!!

I am Alive

Hello my name is Amy and I have a blog. You probably don't remember me. I have had had the craziest month EVER!!!!! It first started when my camera broke......so no photos to post, then computer problems....you guys know how that will almost shut an entire household down. Then the swine flu hit our house OH MY GOSH!!!! that almost did me in!!!!!! 4 out of my 5 kids were sick. Then this:




This is a subdivision about 5 miles from my house. Thankfully our home survived. We had some flooding and did have to remove the carpet in our basement, but we were very fortunate...VERY FORTUNATE!!!!!! I have friends who have lost everything!!!This is the road I drive on everyday to get my kids to school:
Baseball field:...yeah there is a baseball field under there....

this is a school in our county....A total loss!!:(Please pray for our state. There is a lot of destruction, but I am always amazed everytime something like this happens how a community comes together as a family. Sometimes you need the power to go out to realize how funny your kids are, how much fun it is to all sit around playing board games by candle lite, to really know how blessed you are!!! I could however live without boiling my water....that is getting old!!!!
The upside to this whole thing is, that I have a new studio. I have been painting at my kitchen table for years. It is a huge burden...but there is nowhere else for me to go.....sooooo, the room that we have ripped all the carpet out of will now be Fancy Schmancy Studios....sounds purfeshinul...dudn't it!!!!:)
