Welcome Pufferbilly Days!

Hello Everyone!!!!

It's that time of year again! It's Pufferbilly Days here in Boone. I had to miss last year's because I had business outside of the state. This year I will have a booth at the craft show Saturday & Sunday with Cozy Trends! We will be located on Story Street....that's right, Pufferbilly Days is back downtown! Take a break from that Iowa/Iowa State game and come and see us!



I am pretty excited for this show. I have been working on a new fancier display. I have been collecting some funky junk. In fact I'm still working on some display stuff into the 9th hour (as usual). I stopped by the Habitat for Humanity Re-Store today and got some fantastic doors. Funny thing is I bought the doors and went to pull my car around the corner to load them up. I'm thinking to myself, I need to move this and that...then I come around the corner and realize I have my "commuting car" not my normal SUV. Duh. I completely forgot. Thankfully we did some rearranging and got them to fit.

I also had some new signs printed and a new custom order book. I've got some plans for other improvements, but I probably won't get them done in time.

I have some exciting things to come up...new display at a local craft store and a new business idea I'm exploring. I'll keep you updated!

See you Saturday & Sunday!

Idea Thief: Blah Lamp Turned Amazing

Hi There!

I know that I just did an Idea Thief, but I saw this idea, and I can't help but share it. Using just pop bottles, duct tape and metallic paint, this regular lamp went from boring to amazing.

Idea Thief: Framing a Flat Panel TV

Hi There,

This is a neat project for those who think that big flat panel television is a bit of an eyesore. I know on those decorating shows they always hide the TV. However in our house, we watch TV in our living room, so it doesn't make sense to have the TV tucked into a corner. This is a way to make it more of a decoration rather than a piece of electronics sticking out.
