WOW, what a weekend!!  With Aye slowly getting better and Monster ‘playing’ through his sickness it was a good weekend.  I actually took a turn for the worse on Saturday, but today I am feeling better.  Our Doctor has got us ALL on good meds and advice – so we are ALL going to be better soon!!

I did get a chance to do some beading this weekend….

And here is where I left off yesterday;

Remember, you can watch it ‘grow’ on my Fan Page or Google+ page throughout the day.

I was also included in this great collection from thewitchandmule, THANK YOU for including me!!

And yes, this is also my newest listing…. I really like the way the frame worked on this one… it is a LARGER stone, and sometimes that makes a harder to create the frame.

Today my featured artist is: lavenderroseapothecary.  OH MY!!  Over the weekend I received a wonderful little gift from an amazingly talented artist.  These treats are not only made with natural ingredients, but they work wonderfully!  She says; As a child I was raised to respect mother nature and what she provided.  And all I can say is that I just LOVE they way they small and feel!  My daughter has already taken the Lip Balm and if I don’t guard it carefully, the face cream will be gone quickly!!!  Please go check out her blog and remember, always support handmade artist when you can!!
