    What a fun parade!! I'm not sure I could have kept a baby mouse warm quite the way that you did - but I'm pretty sure I'd have had to try to save him too, just because he IS so tiny and helpless. 🪡👠

    Hi Sarah, It was fun to see all of your Halloween finishes, thanks for sharing them with us. The baby mouse video at the end was precious and I agree with all of your reasons for wanting to save him. He is adorable! Stuart also is always very fun to see. Thanks so much for sharing with us!

  • @AmniconStudio
    @AmniconStudio 2 дня назад

    Hey! :-). Thanks so much! I usually watch your videos almost right away on Monday. This has been a crazy week for me so I didn't get to view it until yesterday. What a happy surprise!
    Your Halloween pieces were so fun to see as you were you pulling them all out and unwrapping them. The turkey from cottage garden is the same one I have and still need to start. Oh, and when I saw your Midnight Manor I had to go track it down and throw it on a wishlist, along with the Riolis piece you shared. I LOVE Lily of the Valley.
    I'm not a fan of mice but I love that you rescued and took care of that baby until you got in touch with a rehabber. I'm a chicken mamma and have raised hundreds of chicks and I swear the instinct to place baby animals that size in the bra is a natural instinct!
    Thanks for keeping me company while I was chopping up tomatoes for making marinara and shredding cabbage for sauerkraut!

    I can't believe I hadn't discovered you before/ Love your work and you are very enabling, though you are also inspiring me to get some of my finishes FINISHED. (My true weakness). Now the weather is cooling off I have a better chance of that, one I finish putting away the gardens. THank you for all your share....hope to go back and watch some of your older you tubes...This was so fun. P.S. Your husbands' comment about your craft room sounds like something my husband would say. My room is above the garage also... By the way, I am from New England also (North Shore Cape Ann). Also I rescued baby lab mice (one of the lab mice had babies and they were going to get "rid" of them). They went home with me....and I had them for 3 or 4 years.....D'artagnan, Porthos, Artemis and Athos.

      What great names! I would’ve so loved to have a pocket mouse but this fragile being terrified me. I felt I didn’t know what to do and thought he was shrinking each hour (no doubt I was simply over tired).
      Welcome garage dweller! We may be related! Can’t wait for winter and all things inside. Probably have another mowing before winterizing😒

    Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful Halloween finishes! Your frames are awesome finds even if inexpensive. I’d never get anything framed if I couldn’t thrift and do it my self. I’m glad you found the information for the cross stitch pieces you rescued. I know back in the day that info wasn’t added to the finished piece. Hope to see more of your Halloween decor. I hope the nervousness about your sewing machine turns into excitement. It’s going to make some finishing work and bag making so much easier. Good job rescuing the baby mouse. You have a wonderful heart. 🌻♥️🌻

    When you frame, move the wire across the back to about 1/3 of the way down from the top so the frame will hang closer to the wall. I noticed on Turkey Day the wire looked to be about midway down. Just a suggestion……❤

    All creatures great and small, while I’ve not put any rescues in my bra, I have rescued all sorts things like a snake that a raptor of some sort caught and dropped. The talon had cut it near its tail so off to the vet we went. It got 3 stitches and a shot of antibiotics. I only had to pay for the supplies because the vet was excited to care for something she doesn’t see in her main office. There are many other animal species like lizards, salamanders, frog and toads and so forth. Can’t help it, , you get it, right? BTW all your Halloween stitches are great.
