Another Uncle Sam Doll & Star Hanger listed

The weather was soooo gloomy, cool and rainy today....it was a great day for creating so I finished up two more creations!! They are both Americana items and are now listed on Ebay.
The first item is an Uncle Sam with stars in a vintage metal mailbox and the second is an Americana wood star door hanger.
Here is a sneak peek at them.




I think tomorrow I am going to take a break and head to the zoo (my favorite place!) with my sister and my nephew and spend the day with them walking and enjoying the animals.

Hope you have a great day tomorrow!!!
