Last month I won at BINGO on ABC and received a fabulous package from Marie.
In the bottom of the cigar box there was a lone earring. I immediately fell in love with it…I like sparkly things!
What’s a girl to do…why, make a pendant, of course. I simply removed the french hook and put a jump ring in it’s place.
After getting dressed this morning I decided to accessorize, something I rarely do, and put on this bracelet. It got me thinking about beads, so since I had the time I made these wine charms.
The chili feast was a success. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures. The ones that were taken are either blurry or have too many people that I don’t have permission to post pictures of. Our neighbors have the perfect house for this large group so we could hardly tell there were that many people plus 2 dogs in the house!
Before noon today it started to flurry a bit and while we were at the chili feast it was snowing big time! The ground is still too warm for it to stick but the meteorologists were right about the arctic front!
I can finally reveal the full picture from the sneak peek I gave last week.
Theresa got her gifts in the mail and is very happy, so I’m happy too!
Today has been just one of those wonderful days that everything seems to fall into place. Usually it’s just the opposite. I forget or misplace things, someone is a crabby butt, nothing productive gets accomplished, etc…you get the picture.
Here’s my list of wonderful things for the day:
I just got word that the book my bracelet is published in is on Amazon for pre-order.
As far as I can tell my bracelet didn’t make the cover shot. It was sent off with 49 other pieces as to be photographed for possible cover shots. Bummer. I’m certainly not going to complain though!! It just would have been the super sweet icing on the cake to be on the cover as well!
I almost forgot to post these with my crazy mixed-up day.
I’ve started on the charms for the ABC 5th Anniversary charm swap. So far I have 16 put together. I’ll be adding something to the backside of the scrabble tiles but haven’t gotten it on there yet.
I can’t take credit for the design concept…I received a fantastic charm in a swap on Latest Trends that these are based upon.
These are for a challenge and swap. They are made from links off and old belt and my handmade paper beads. I can’t wait to see what the others players come up with!
PS…thanks to Theresa for the coaster I used for my backdrop. :)
