One Love

...lets get together and be alright 

You must know this is highly unusual for me to have a valentine piece of jewelry made well ahead of this fun holiday, it usually occurs to me a few days ahead of the actual day.

I had purchase a few pieces from Menagerie Studio and this heart was my inspiration, Martha's pieces are so unique and really make a statement where ever you use them. I love her layering of color and texture. The copper charm bracelet is from Auntie's Beads. I oxidized the bracelet and then buffed it to bring back some of the copper color. A great solid copper sturdy bracelet, this would take patina's so well! I see another project .....!

 

I have received these beads free of charge from Auntie's Beads in order to write a review and/or create a project free of charge for you. I have not been paid for my endorsement as it pertains to the products received.  

Hearts Afire

Artbeads.com has declared January as a month of Valentines Day for the blogging community. As part of their blogger program I got to choose some wonderful heart related items to create with. One of the items I wanted to work with was this fabulous copper heart toggle clasp. I was so impressed with the quality, size and color, I think it made a wonderful focal for this bracelet. Artbeads is having a great Valentine's Day Sale and is offering 15% off all Valentine related items, and as always shipping is FREE in the US. and only $1 to Canada.

Hearts Afire can be found in my Flap Your Wings Etsy shop.

Ain't no sunshine....

I guess I am in the stamping mood so here is a little "LOVE" for y'all.

It is very cool and rainy here and has been for several weeks. Usually I love the soothing sound of the rain, but I have to say it is getting a little irritating! I need some sunshine!!!
I was up early to go to an estate sale and boy was I lucky I went early before everything was picked over, I was able to fill my SUV with lots of good finds. The antique shop where I have two booths is having a big appreciation sale next weekend and this will give me a chance to restock with some new items.
Hope someone is having a nice sun shinny day!

One Love...

Sometime this past week I read a blog and they referred to Bob Marley's song "One Love"...ever since then I have not gotten this song out of my head. I knew I had to create something with those words, so here you have it...


One Love, One Heart
Let's get together and feel all right
Hear the children crying (One Love)
Hear the children crying (One Heart)
Sayin' give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Sayin' let's get together and feel all right

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One Love)
There is one question I'd really like to ask (One Heart)
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own?
Believe me

One Love, One Heart
Let's get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One Love)
So shall it be in the end (One Heart)
Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
One more thing

Let's get together to fight this Holy Armageddon (One Love)
So when the Man comes there will be no no doom (One Song)
Have pity on those whose chances grove thinner
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation

Sayin' One Love, One Heart
Let's get together and feel all right
I'm pleading to mankind (One Love)
Oh Lord (One Heart)

Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right
Let's get together and feel all right
