These clean-lines, classic black and white mini envelopes found their way to Ohio this past weekend!  Each envelope comes with a coordinating note-card so you can add your own personal touch.

I just love making mini envelopes...can you tell?!

Humans - One, Yellow Jackets - Zero

Yes!  We won!  Those terrifyingly huge, aggressive, 'roided up and nasty yellow jackets are GONE!

I know...they probably serve a purpose here on Earth, they probably destroy some other nasty insects, but I just can't handle them.  I can't. Not even in a book or on TV.  Nope.

My husband managed to rid my sweet little cottage of the nasty interlopers and yesterday, I went inside my cottage for a quick look-see. Of course, Bob was with me, protecting me, but still, I went in.

Once the weather stays cool, I'll be out there more regularly.  Til then, I'll be crafting on the patio or in the dining room.

I think I'll be making more mini envelopes next using beautiful copper foil papers!

And my head has been playing around with embroidery thoughts, too; that may be because cold weather is coming and I love to work with balsam in the winter.

Embroidery + balsam = intoxicating and cute drawer sachets!  I am a winter lover for sure.

More Minis From My Cottage

Hi...good to see you!

I do love me some kraft paper creations....

One More Today

Before I call it a day, here are just a few more listings from my shop. Thanks for stopping by!

Working with paper is one of my favorite things to do! (Ya think?)

Each envelopes measures 3" x 3" and comes with a blank note-card to which you can add your own personal message.  Having a set of these minis on hand is such a great idea; use them for just about any occasion!

The pendants are one of a kind, no two are exactly alike.  

For these pendants (one of my favorite items), I use industrial metal washers and hammer them to add texture.  I then add either gorgeous paper topped with a clear, protective glaze, or I wire wrap them with/without beads.

'Night.  Sweet dreams.  

Well, hi!

Welcome to my crafting blog where I'll be sharing the items I create on a fairly regular basis.  I've also added a link to my Etsy shop...From My Cottage...if there's anything you'd like to purchase.  If not, that's perfectly okay; I love sharing photos filled with color!

Below are just a few of the latest additions to my shop.  Enjoy!

Each of these sets of eight (8) mini envelopes sells for just $5.00, plus $3.90 shipping.  These cuties measure 3" x 3" and comes with a blank white notecard to which you can add your own personal sentiment.  Feel free to visit FromMyCottage.etsy.com
