Peddling my Wares

Getting ready for a show is a lot of work, but I love it! I enjoy setting up and creating an inviting space for shopping. This afternoon I head over to the Embassy Suites Hotel in Murfreesboro Tn. to set up my wares for the Holly Day Marketplace to be held tomorrow. With a pre-show sale starting at 8:30am and the admission costing $35 I sure hope we have some serious shoppers ( maybe the mimosas and appetizers will loosen them up!).

A last minute bracelet I finished at 11:15 pm ( I am a night owl) featuring one of Summer Studios wonderful ceramic charms. I just LOVE Leanne's work! Have you checked out her little birdies, they are the cutest! You can find Blue Moss in my Flapyourwings Etsy shop.

Have a great day and weekend, I hope the sun shines on you where ever you are!

Sweet Pea...and the winner is!

And now for the drum roll....The winner of my Autumn Giveaway is Sara from Arts Afire, please get in contact with me so I can get your mailing address. Congratulations!!

I saw a little pea pod necklace like this in the latest Rings and Things supplement catalog, I could not resist making one. I had just received my new custom make fonts for stamping from Fundametals.net and thought it would be a great time to try them out.

I just love my new stamps, but will need to get use to using them as they line up a little different than the ones I currently use. I think I will try to make some tiny pea pods with tiny pearls, these are just a tad big for me, but it was a good experiment.

I am in LOVE with these little blue swallows from Patina Queen! This sweet little necklace is called Woodland Dreams and you can find it on my website.

Batman...don't you see it?

Here is my boy Jack as he suns himself today. He found himself the biggest sunbeam he could. I thought about joining him, how relaxing!

Doesn't Jacks shadow looks just like the "Bat" building in downtown Nashville, known also as The AT&T building. Check it out and you will agree!

Ok, last chance for my Autumn giveaway...I will be drawing the lucky winner in the AM.

FUN FOR ALL!

Whimsical Trinket Charm Bracelet

I have a nice little stash of bits and pieces, doo dads and the such in my studio, you just never know when you might need one of those things. Lets face it we all have a little stash of things to some extent, be it a junk drawer or work table or that basket of found items you have in the laundry room all those things you found in the dryer. So last night I decided to put some of my trinket stash to good use and created a charm bracelet. Many of the trinkets I used are vintage and some of them are new. I especially love the "Good Time Token" I think it says it all and on the reverse side it says "Fun For All". There you go...what more do you need?

So what do you save? What is the one thing you just can't throw out?
