Guess what these are....

When I found them at my favorite consignment store, New Visions
( the one Penny and I went to a couple of weeks ago ),
I had NO idea what they were either!

But they looked like they would OPEN!


So I gave a little tug.....

and the snaps came open .........



And I found out they were not only CUTE....

but practical!


They are sewing kits....travel size!

I was SO thrilled to find them and will treasure them!

Considering the metal scissors and other details, they must be quite old.

And they came at a perfect time for me to be inspired. I have been sewing up a storm.

I've heard different amounts of time mentioned for creating a new habit.
At the first of the year, I decided I would try to sew or craft some every day.
I tend to want to get my work done before I 'play' but I decided I was never
going to get far enough ahead. And instead of working at a project ALL day
until it is finished, I would spend some time EVERY day creating.

So far this year, I've made several things and feel very pleased.
This week, I've made pincushions. I have been determined to make a perfect apple...
but I still haven't perfected that! lol
But here are some that are finished......


And if you have a LOT of pins.......heehee!


This was the easiest one and turned out to be one of the cutest!

Create a new habit.......
spend some time everyday creating!
