Sew what do I do with it all

 When one keeps on sewing, one needs something to do with all the things she makes. I already told you that I took a bunch of stuff to my DIL's beauty shop for her to sell, I told you about the RAK thing and quite a few of you saw that I did a giveaway on Facebook.

This was what I gave away on Facebook


I've continued to make these even though I've got way too many sets. They're easy and I can do them all without even having to look at directions anymore.


You'll notice on that top set there are 5 pieces instead of 4. I found a pattern for a chapstick holder. 

I also did another RAK drop. This time it was at Walmart. When you're going in to the store they have a place to grab a wet wipe to wipe down your cart. I left a little package on top of that. I hope whoever found it liked it.

I like the idea of donating them. Maybe the Homeless Coaliton has a thrift store, they do here, and what is donated to them is sold to get money to feed and helpt the homeless. I would think young girls would love these, but how to get them to them is behind me...

What a nice idea, to leave one of your sets for someone to find. That will have made someone's day.

They are all so cute.

Ann you are so clever and your creations have 'hopefully' inspired me to get back to quilting small things like pillows. I just don't have room for big items....I will keep you posted

Love these and you're most kind. I've always known that. You're also very crafty.

Have a fabulous day, Ann. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥

A chapstick/lip balm holder I would find very useful. That is a neat idea.

Donating them sounds fun and so does opening your own store online. Though I hear Etsy is a mess these days with how they do business. Not sure. Either way, they look fun!

We have a place in town, too, that takes all kinds of donations and the sales go toward helping the homeless. Great idea, Madsnapper. Donating to Women's shelters is another idea. Some churches have organizations that help people with donations, too.
I also heard there has been a lot of issues with Etsy lately.
I like your Walmart surprise idea!
Have a super day!! I know you made mine. :)

Sounds like a great idea of donating them.

Okay I read Sandra's comment - the homeless people would LOVE them. Churches. I think that would be great!
