My favorite!


I had a million things I should have been doing this morning before an appointment with the dentist, but I HAD to make this bracelet. I had it all lined up to make last night but was too tired to get up off the couch. So before I left the house I finished it and it made my morning...this piece just delighted me! I love the way it came out...the only thing I wish is that I had more of the vintage butterflies.


Good news, I am happy the way the bracelet came out...bad news I had to have a root canal. Ouch! Not planned at all, but done. At least I did not have to stress about it...only my wallet does now.

You can find this piece in my Flapyourwings Etsy shop.

The Butterfly is a Flying Flower

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. My DH took me out for a lovely dinner on Saturday night, a nice splurge I should say. We went to the Capital Grille in downtown Nashville, located in the Hermitage Hotel. Four years ago when we moved to Tennessee our new home was not ready for us to  move in,  we were fortunate to stay at the luxurious Hermitage Hotel with our cats for just over a week, needless to say I did not want to leave. It surely was a real treat, this being a very stressful time, chocolates on the pillow at night sure helped. So four years later, here we are dinning at this lovely restuarant. Romantic yes...wonderful yes..it was a very nice evening. Thanks honey!

I had my son take this picture before we left as I was wearing a new butterfly necklace that I had just finished making. I loved it so much and it went with my blouse so I decided to wear it. I was very happy with the piece and it was really comfortable to wear.

Flap Your Wings


It has been a busy week! Now that my open house is behind me and all the hub bub of Thanksgiving is done I have to concentrate on getting my shop loaded with some new items. This week I hope to finally give the copper etching a try. I have been waiting for a time when I could just focus on that. If anyone has any special tips they would like to share I sure would appreciate it. I am going to use the peroxide and acid mixture.
