Many Menu Boards (and lake pictures!)

Well, I am officially stuffed from Thanksgiving! I had a GREAT time with my families (hubby’s and mine) and we got up to the lake and relaxed. Here’s some pictures from the lake…

My messy sewing area…keepin it real :p

I loooove the real fire :)

All of the weekend festivities = a very sleepy dog!

I have this craft fair coming up on Saturday…a little stressed out!! So I made up some more menu boards when I got home today:

Want to see them close up? Well sure! ;)

This is the “customized” board I made for Rachel (who won my giveaway)…I promise it’s being mailed tomorrow! :)





This one is being donated to the raffle for the craft fair

What are your thoughts? I tried to incorporate a bunch of different colors/designs for different tastes…hoping I’ll get some buyers! I am going to try to sell them for $10 a piece at the craft fair. I still want to make at least 5 more before Saturday…oh yeah, and I have to teach too! ;) I have my formal observation on Tuesday, so you probably won’t hear from me until after that!
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with family, fun, and lots of food :) Thanks again for all of your amazing encouragement and inspirations!

    How exciting…a craft fair. I wish I had time to do that. It would't be easy corraling my twins and trying to makes sales at the same time. I hope you do well. Your menu boards are so cute. You asked for suggestions…what about some small fabric rosette clusters on the corner. Like on the white one, it would give some dimension. Just a thought. They look great though!!! I need one in my kitchen. It would save LOTS of paper.Good luck!
