A Sneak Peek...

Here's a little peek at what I've been working on, all ready for the mid month update at TDIPT Mercantile this evening after 9pm EST.

Please stop by for a visit. I'll be back with a proper post soon.

Merry Christmas & Swap Ornies

It's been record setting busy this Holiday Season at Old Branch Hollow! Lots of concerts, parties, shopping, decorating, and a trip to Colorado thrown in there too. I'm certainly ready to spend some time at home, and do some baking. 

I am way overdue to share photos of the wonderful ornaments I received in Amy's swap.

The first three are all from Theresa. You can visit her lovely etsy shop HERE.  Her cross stitch is SO tiny. Gorgeous!

This snowman is from Marie/ Old Lady Morgan. Awesome, right? She used the best wiggly twigs for his arms, and his tags were so cute, I left them on. LOVE him.

The final 3 are all from Patti/Raspberry Lane Primitives. There's a wooden peppermint candy and chenille candy cane, both thrimmed with greenery and sweet annie. Santa is made of wool, with a wool beard, and he smells like Cinnamon.  So cute and PERFECT on my tree.

Although my crappy photography skills aren't doing any of these ornies justice. I adore them all, and am so grateful to my swap partners for such generous gifts.Thank you to Amy at Bumble Bee Lane for hosting.

Y'all know what a bad blogger I am, so I'll wish you all the Merriest Christmas now. Enjoy this special time of year with those you love...
Warmest Blessings,
~Katherine

Early Work Mercantile Update

I know I've been quiet for a while now. Both boys are in marching band and we are right in the midst of our busiest part of the season, with games on Friday nights and all day competitions on Saturdays.  I've been spending every spare second in my studio, working toward my first ever update on Early Work Mercantile. I'm so honored to be a part of this group. I'm a little star struck, with so many of my most admired folk artists there. 

I've got a ton to do today. First off though is an overdue appointment with my hair stylist. Gotta hide those greys!
Wishing you all a lovely Fall day!

Tuesday Display Chain week #3...

This week's theme is Fall Foilage-Nature on Display.  We don't have much af a Fall season here in north Texas, so our Fall foilage looks pretty much like our Summer foilage-green with a few crispy edges. Normally, I'm raking leaves while hubby is hanging the Christmas lights on December 1st! So, my display is pretty weak. Just some faux foilage I have inside the house.

I truly miss Ohio this time of year. I'm sure I'll be envious when I see all the beautiful colors as I check in with the other ladies today. Stop by Misi's blog to see for yourself...

Happy Fall from Texas y'all!
