I've been tagged!!!

See what happens when you don't post as often as you should? You get tagged, LOL!! Tammy, from RockRiverStitches, has tagged me to share how I got my name.

Well.........I started selling on eBay in 2005, and knew I needed to come up with a creative name. I wanted to do Kris's Kreations, but that's too many ssss's together, and since I do strictly painting (right now, anyway), I decided to go with PaintingKreations4u as my eBay name, and for etsy and my blog, shortened it to PaintedKreations, with a K because my name starts with a K, and it's just a little bit different. Of course, I didn't realize that using a K would cause some confusion, but that's ok........someday I will be well-known enough that people will automatically know how it is spelled, LOL!!! So, there ya go.......nothing fancy or spectacular, but I kinda like my name, and that's what matters.
So, now I get to tag 3 more people, which I promise I will do tomorrow when I have more time to investigate who it should be. Watch out! You never know........it could be YOU!!!


Since it has been 8 (!!!) days since I've posted, I wanted to share my latest item that I've finished and listed in my shop, in plenty of time for Mother's Day. I will also be listing some more handpainted soaps, special for Mom. And stay tuned..........April 25 is the deadline for our OFG Mother's Day challenge! We will be listing our challenge pieces in our etsy shops, and the Old FarmHouse Gathering blog will have a place where you can vote on your favorite items. I will also show off my entry here on my blog. Anyway, here is my latest item:
