Something New

I broke out of the box today and made this:It’s a wall hanging and I’m not sure if it is done yet… I’ll look at it again tomorrow and think on it then.I knew I wanted to do a patchwork style background. I used fabrics to represent the ground, green grass, the sky, etc. I […]

Hey kids… what does the Storque bring?

It brings my bracelet for all of Etsy to see… or all who read the Storque. Go see the article here: http://www.etsy.com/storque/how-to/shop-makeover-series-feature-friendly-photos-3222/ I’m really excited that they chose my before and after images and am doing a happy wiggle in my chair. For those who have followed my shop from the beginning, you know that […]

At Mom’s

If you read my last post then you know that I spent this past weekend out at my mom’s. She lives on the old family farm which is nestled in the woods, over looking Beaver Lake. It’s very quiet out there. You can spend minute upon minute sitting out side listening to the birds, to […]

What’s that doing in my living room?

I’m not sure things get done around the house when I’m at work during the day. This Lego Millennium Falcon keeps growing and the dishes keep piling up! Ah well, I suppose there are worse things. By the way, that isn’t my Lego set, it’s the Sweet Boy’s. He’s got a thing for Legos… and […]

Boo boos

While making some earrings last night, I managed to slice open my finger (no, not with jewelry tools, I’m very safe with those, but with the container I keep my itty bitty seed beads in). I always tend to hurt myself in the worst possible place. It’s on the pointer finger on the side facing […]

Ah, everything is better through my eyes.

You all are too sweet! I’m out of my funk and many thanks to a couple of you for leaving such sweet posts over the past day or so. I needed those 🙂 I’m back to myself again. My brother is coming over with home made mac and cheese (and my mom) for lunch, I’ve […]

These Eyes Aren’t Mine

EDIT: I think finding some screen, a cool and funky frame, and some bright paint will at least brighten tomorrow – I shall head to the store… in the morning. I really feel like I’ve woken up looking through another person’s eyes. I’ve been down today, really down. In fact, I’ve kind of not cared […]

Sunday Projects

I worked on a few projects today other than the usual Sunday laundry. I made cookies… lots and lots of cookies… and I recreated one of my favorite winter scenes for a Santa hat decorating contest at work. I think I’ll at least have a shot.

Waiting… not so patiently

The time off of work that I’m taking around Christmas can not come quickly enough. I’ve been trying to wait patiently for December 23 to come around, but patience just isn’t something I have right now. Work has really been wearing me out lately. I’ve worked many nights over the past four weeks and that […]

Just one more

Just one more treasury: It seems as though my winter themed bracelets are doing well as far as treasuries go. Hopefully some of my winter themed necklaces will do the same. I found a batch of photos that I had forgotten about this evening. I’m quite happy that I edited and posted some of the […]
