Itty Bitty Signs

Why Itty Bitty Signs? Well, they are quick and painting them is relaxing.  And they make great gifts and can be quite inspirational!






Craft Wire for the handles/hangers.







I do start off with a plan, believe it or not; phrases, ideas, people... But somehow, during the creative process the plans go out the window! These are the ones I am still working on ( I needed more supplies).

So just add your link to feature any block that you are working on whether it's paper or fabric. I am asking however, that you please add n...
