Good afternoon! Had some really great news today, husband is making such a good recovery from his injured hand that he's allowed to drive again. He is ecstatic! He's missed his beloved car so much!
I'm feeling so much better myself as well, my head actually feels as though it belongs to me again! Even did housework today....but that's enough of that!
The current challenge over at The East Wind calls for recycling, so as I always need gift bags (and nice ones are expensive!) I decided to recycle this paper bag I found in a cupboard. I used an old button and a clothing tag too. This is what I made with it-
not bad for a freebie!
Thanks for visiting, wishing you all a happy Easter weekend!
