It's a virtual fantasy land here with rabbits, stars, birds, and feathers `;~)


pendant2


I want to thank everyone who liked my Bead Soup Necklace, I think I will call it "Bambi." I agree with Amber Dawn Inventive Soul that is definitely shouts out BAMBI `;~) I had so much fun making this necklace! Shannon of For My Sweet Daughter made the beautiful copper etched rabbit pendant and the birdsnest too! Please go and take a loot look at her beautiful work `;~)

I hope to get back into the studio tonight and make some earrings to go with this necklace. So we will see where that takes me `;~)


herb_haul


Right now, I'm so excited cause my huge herb haul came in on Monday and I have been dying to get into them!!! I spent Tuesday night reading up on some ideas and I can't wait to try them out! I also have a couple custom orders on my plate at the moment that I am really excited about `;~)

I'm also going to try my hand at making incense cones! I have some makko powder that I'm just itching to mix into some of my standard recipes and see how they compare. I might start offering incense loose and cone if it works like I'm hoping `;~)


Peacock  feather tattoo!


I finally got my peacock feather tattoo that I have been wanting for the last year. I'm so very happy with it!


I hope each and every one of ya'll have a blessedly beautiful weekend `;~)

Bead Table Wednesday And Sneak Peak!

I really enjoy getting back into beading and this Bead Soup Blog Party have really thrown my creativity into high gear along with the Bead Table Wednesday posts.


So here is my sneak peak:

BTW- 23FEB11 Sneak Peak Bead Soup

My swap partner, Shannon @ For My Sweet Daughter bead soup really has stretched me outside my usual zone. But I have been having so much fun playing with these beads. Now, I just have to finish in time... hahahaha!

As you can see, this necklace is very much about Spring `;~)

Bead Soup Time `;~)

My Bead Soup Partner, Shannon recieved her beads today. I'm hoping I'll have mine when I get home. I can't wait to actually see them. She posted them on her blog, For My Sweet Daughter.

I'm in shock and awe over the lovely goodness coming my way and I can't wait to dive into those gorgeous beads! It will be a definite challenge for me. I tried hard to find something different for Shannon from what she usually works with and I think I have her stumped `;~)

Though, I have to say that she will make something truly remarkable and is very talented. You should definitely check out her jewelry!!!

For My Sweet Daughter.

Everything is Futzy right now...

Been down with the Futz since Thursday, finally back at work today. UGH! Which unfortunately changed all my plans! I hate when that happens, because I'm not a big planner but when I do have plans, I like to keep them... There is a reason I've made plans and they are important to me..

I wanted to finish up my Bead Soup Project and get it sent out, that didn't happen :( I wanted to make a clasp because I didn't have anything I liked in stock. I knew exactly what I wanted, so I planned to make them this weekend. I had everything I needed - wire, solder, flux, and micro torch...

I just had to dig the micro torch out of whatever box it was packed in and I'd be all set. I found my acetylene torch and my first small torch that I can't stand. But the micro-torch was no where to be found.

I was sad

No worries, thought I. I'll just stop at the Home Depot when I go up for the daughter's birthday party... No problem.... right?

HAH!I should have known better, this is why I don't make plans!

I was so sick, I did not get out of bed for three days other than to eat. And boy, did I eat A LOT!!!!

Oh, and don't go to the grocery store when you are sick either!! I know better to go when hungry, but didn't realize how bad it was to go when sick... Oh, and don't read cookbooks either!!!!

Friday night I went to Hell-Mart to get meds (which didn't do squat by the way) and some orange juice... I spent almost $200!!! OMG!!! How is one person going to eat that much food???? At least I wont have to shop for the next month!

Though I did make a wonderful vegetable soup! Good thing I bought the tupperware stuff to freeze extra soup in! I'm going to wax poetic about this soup, it is so good. I can't even tell you how much I love this soup! And I'm not a big soup person either... Plus, it is so easy, even a Futzy sick person can make it! YUM! Wish I had gotten a picture of it!

I wish I took more pictures, I love pictures in my posts. I'm just a lazy blogger though. Maybe I'll take a picture of my yummy veggie soup tonight with the recipe `;~)
