Another week is upon us, and I’m at it once again to find that special project. I don’t know about you, but I’m having a hard time keeping up with all the fun projects being uploaded. With each project I’m continuing to find more and more inspiration. I can’t believe all the entries! I need more hours in the day so I can try creating each and every one of them.
This Thursdays Fabulous Find goes to Vicki, or Opal777 as we all know her, with her Pumpkin treat holder. These baskets look so much fun to make. What a great gift idea! I love the little Pumpkins hands, and feet– he looks like he’s ready to give a big hug! I also love all the detail that went into the pencil stitch marks around his face.”Trick or Treaters” near and far will love to get this awesome treat holder for Halloween.
Congratulations Vicki for such a fabulous project!
Vicki Congratulations!! You are the star for this week I love your little basket.

Vicki,
The basket is ADORABLE!!!
I was prowling around late last night….looking for Halloween ideas and saw this one. It’s fabulous indeed. Congrats. Then with all the inspiration I got…I bagged another 150 ‘bags’ for the big night.
Very cute!
I am laughing as I see this because when I made this proto type and showed it to my husband, he didn’t say anything…which usually means that he doesn’t like something….you know…if you can’t say anything nice…don’t say anything at all. So, I told him that I was going to make a bunch of these for the closer neighborhood kids and for his employees….he just shrugged his shoulder and said…well….don’t knock yourself out. He then fessed up saying that he thought that it was junky and didn’t think that his employees would like them. I told him that every woman in this country likes a piece of chocolate…LOL! So…he said to go ahead and do what I want…but to not knock myself out. I told him that I thought that it was a cute basket…so there!…and we both laughed. Well, when I came to the craft room and saw the picture….I thought…what is that doing there?! When I read that you all liked it….I sat here howling with laughter. I just called my husband at work and gave him a “Na-na-na-Na-na!” We both laughed.
I am honored because I have seen all of the wonderful projects on this site. I have been amazed by some of them. What a hoot. You made my day!
Thank you! 🙂
Vicki
Congrats Vicki, your creations are always beautiful. Dana
Vicki I got such a good laugh imagining you calling up your husband! Haha, sometimes our hubbies are great for an opinion and other times….lol. To each their own I guess!
Face it Amanda…..men don’t get any of this….at least not the men who I know. My husband doesn’t stop me from doing any of this and in fact encourages me. I just got a charge out of this….it was all of you against him. It is rare that I get an opportunity like this. Usually when I try to pull something off to get the upper hand, it back fires one me….and yet you guys laid this right in the palm of my hands. So, guess what? I made another basket….and because he thought that it was too junky for the job…I make match books with a small piece of candy in each one and a spider stamped on them…and placed a bunch of them into the basket. Now, he can place them on his desk and they can just take one if they want one. I found out that he didn’t like the idea of handing out the candy. I still think that every woman in this country loves a good piece of chocolate. What about the rest of you?! 🙂
I love a good piece of chocolate, and it is doubly sweet with that clever concoction!
