Memory Frames

Here at The Prairie Preservationist

we come across out-dated items

and try to think of ways to make them useful

and beautiful again...

(Letters & Lace Blog post on Sall's Country Life)

when this over-sized ugly yellow pine frame,

and a pile of tattered and stained linens came in

we supplied a little bit of new Tim Holtz fabric

and some black Old Towne chalk-style paint

and "VOILA!"

A beautiful Vintage Memory Frame

to display old pictures, postcards, letters

jewelry, etc....

A Fun project piece of art.

Now on our 

list of future workshops!

Look for this one of kind piece at our store soon

and listed on our new Website

The Prairie Preservationist.com

Hittin' The Bottle Class Night

 Some glass bottles

are just too pretty

to throw out...

Why DO they put whiskey 

in such pretty bottles anyway??

We had fun

turning empty

glass bottles into 

works of art...

With a little paint,

a new label,

and a little ribbon...

the transformation

is quite 

impressive...

We had a good time

"Hittin' the Bottle"

with our paint, brushes

and

creative minds!

You don't need to be 21

to be artistic!

Great Balls of Wool!

Some sheep have wandered

 into our store...

are there any sheep herders out there?

If not we will put them to good use...

February can be a cold month in South Dakota...

we will make stocking hats

from their wool...

and dryer balls!

I repeat!  "From their WOOL!!"

Let's call them "Dryer Sheeps" 

(don't want to rile the herd!)

Replace those smelly, expensive dryer sheets

with hand made Woolly Balls

made here in South Dakota

by "the Crafty Ewe"

*shorten drying time

*reduce wrinkles

*decrease static

*soften laundry

*save money

*fragrance free

(or naturally scented with a few drops

of essential oils!)

"oh, and they don't go BAAAAAhd!
