What do the items below have in common?

a couple things I am going to try and work on over the weekend, and the next...

painting an old side table & possibly coffee table
an experiment of sorts, but hopefully they will turn out to be cute
gifts for all of my friends and the babies they keep having

my bags of course, but with a twist...

i have another idea up my sleeve

I've made one of these before with butterflies

but i think it got tossed when i moved last,

so I will be making another similar to the above in a couple different varieties

I have canvas' to fill so I thought I would do

an ode to my love of vases

Last but not least, my inlaws (who aren't really inlaws, yet I guess...)

need a gift to take home with them to remind them of their

"grand-puppies" so it's time to do some paw painting...we'll see how it turns out

Pics of all to follow...
