Beauty in a Bottle

What do you do when you feel like crafting but only have
one usable arm?

~~Work on some altered bottles~~

{I did have to use my teeth a couple of times.
Please don't tell my dentist. I can just hear it now,
" teeth are not tools"}



I just love those crafty cottage sisters
and their wonderful creations.
They are my inspiration for this project.

I gathered goodies from here and there.

I plucked some little treasures out that I've gotten from
Jeanne and Karla.




and voila.

a new vignette.


I am working on a very large jar but I'm not sure what to put inside.

Show ya that one when it it finished.

VERY cool crafts....especially for a one armed girl with very strong teeth. And I swear your secret is safe with me...I WON'T tell your dentist...LOL!

Not bad for a one armed crafter. Chas, they are truly beautiful. I can see where you might have to use your teeth.

Take care and have a fantastic day!!!
