It's Beginning to Look alot like Christmas!!!!


Here is the first Christmas bucket I have done this year. I made this for my photographer friends who are starting their Santa pictures this week!! They are giving out those whirly pops and so she is going to fill it with Epsom salt to look like snow around all the whirly pops! Such a cute idea! (I will make her take a picture of it!) This is one of the large tubs they are $60. I had a customer order this size last for her kids. She has three and so Christmas morning is a little crazy around her house, so last year Santa put all of their gifts in their buckets to help cut down on the craziness!!!

The Last of the Halloween Buckets!




I made this design for two super cute little boys who love sports!! Their momma told me that she wanted something sports themed for them and we both had the same idea of making pumpkins that looked like all the different balls! I threw a jack-o-lantern in there just for fun!

So the Saying goes...

Imitation is the highest form of flattery. So by this I should be flattered that people are copying my designs, right? (Maybe I'm just a little bit flattered)! I have now seen copies of my Easter buckets and my Halloween buckets and I am sure there are other ones floating around out there. I try hard to create unique buckets for my customers and would appreciate that you do not copy them.

Jack-n-Jill

Come see me and my Whimsy Tin's tomorrow night at Jack-n-Jill in Hot Springs, AR!!! I am so excited that I have been asked to participate in their Christmas Open House. Jack-n-Jill is a children's store that use to be here in my hometown but sadly they moved the store to their hometown of Hot Springs. They have some super cute clothes! I may spend any money that I make on my two kids!! I will be there from 6-8 stop by and see everything if you are in the area!!

A Few Characters!







These were also trick or treat buckets that I made this year. I had a little Ninja Turtle at my house that requested a Ninja Turtle bucket. The other two were for his best friends! I will also have to post the strawberry bucket I did for my little Strawberry Shortcake girl. (I forgot to take a picture of it!)

One More Halloween Bucket!


This was done for a second grader who wanted to make sure that I didn't want a cutesy bucket!

Boo!







One last Halloween bucket for the year. There is a little story behind this one. When this customer emailed me about a Halloween bucket it was before I really had posted any new designs. She told me that Halloween was one of her favorite times of the year and that they have nicknamed her little girl Boo! So I thought it would be fun to use her nickname as well since it was so fitting with the holiday. She also said that she liked cute pumpkins, ghost, black cats and all the other Halloween stuff. So here is what I came up with for her little girl!! I love it and there is a super cute witch on it that I guess I forgot to get a picture of.









Hoot Owls

Halloween

I know it is hard to see the design on this bucket. It says Trick on one side and Treat on the other side. It is a really cute design if you see it in person!!

More Halloween/Fall

witches feet
Hoot owls

These are not finished I just wanted to get them on the blog. And I have a few more coming in the next day or so!

Another toy bucket made to match the super cute baby bedding, Animal Tracks.

Dance Bag

I made this canvas for my little girl's room along time ago. (Sadly in this picture it was not all the way finished but had to get it hung for a shower!!)


Which leads me to these. She started dance this year and wanted to find her a super cute dance bag and just have not seen one that I just loved. Then it came to me that this same design would be really cute for a bag!! So I made some for two of her best friends for their birthdays!! Sadly my sweet girl hasn't got her cute bag yet!!

Halloween/Fall buckets







I promise there are more to come here are a few new buckets I did. One is Halloween and the other is a fall theme. And to see the buckets from last year please go here or here or here!

Also be sure and keep scrolling there are lots of new post below!

Touchdown Sally's

Here is a little project that has taken up a little of my time and is the main reason that I have not posted new Halloween buckets!! My husband opened a new restaurant in our hometown. Crazy, I know! It is called Touchdown Sally's it is a sports themed restaurant so he asked if I would do some large canvases for them. I did for a small fee of coarse!! I will try to get better pics of these. They are all 30x40 canvases. I was working on a very short deadline so I really didn't get chance to take a good picture of all of them since he was taking them from the house before the paint was completely dry!

Avery




Purses, High Heels and Lipstick!




Kelly and Bobbie Jean




One of these is for a girl going off to college and the other is for a teenager. Both are going to be used as pencil holders for their desk.


Camo for Sean


Arkansas Razorbacks






Here are some new razorback buckets that I have done recently. The top one I did for a silent auction. I usually do my round tub for this but decided to be adventurous this time and try something new!! I think it turned out pretty cute!! This is just an oblong tub and it is still going to be $60 just like the round ones I do.
The bottom picture is just of a razorback bucket I did for a friends little boy to put in his razorback room! I just added a little black for a change.
