FALL DECORATION

My favorite season is fall, the leaves change color and the temperature is perfect.

 The kitchen curtain top.

This one is a Hanging Panô.


 Table cloth for the little kitchen table.

Table cloth for the dining room table and little pumpkins.

A wallhanging (the pattern is from the magazine Fons & Porter's).

Another wallhanging with writtings in English and Portuguese.

Pumpkins, pumpkins and pumpkins...

Pumpkin people!!!

This is a mix: I bought the hay at Walmart, a true pumpkin, little fabric pumpkins I made, little rocking chair from the flea market and the little doll (Anne) made by my cousin Viviane Nascimento Oliveira from Brazil.

My husband bought this little well at a flea market and I got this scarecrow at Joann's and, of course, more pumpkin.

Story Telling


For years I told stories to kids and also adults. What better way to share arts and the love of God?



In the seminars I taught different ways to tell stories. You can buy materials, but the best way is to make them yourself.

Our God in an artist. He made mankind in different shapes and collors. All his creation reveals the great artist he is.

Crochet Pillows





Crochet pillows can bring the rustic and delicate atmosphere at the same time.

Car trash bags (patchwork)


These trash bags are great for cars.

Aninha rag doll


This is a doll I made with my cousin Vivi.  I used Aninha a lot when I was telling stories. She has been to many cities in Brazil and now she lives in the United States. I know she can't wait to tell stories again.
