Bead Soup

I decided to join Lori's bead soup party! I thought it would be fun to get some inspiration flowing!

My partner was Kristi and the package she sent arrived right on time! She sent me a generous bead soup filled with pretty and interesting pieces! I can't wait to start creating!

 If you would like to see what I make check back May 3rd for the reveal. Also you can check out Kristi's blog http://kristibasket-itsanewday.blogspot.com/

Brimfield antique show September 2012

As usual Brimfield was full of great and interesting finds! But it was sooooo hot! After 4 hours we decided to leave because the heat was really getting to us! It still was a fun day!

Cathy's Amour Valentine swap

Happy Valentines day!
My swap partner was Nancy and she sent me a beautiful decorated heart box filled with lots of lovely goodies - as you can see in the photos. Everything was fabulous! Thanks Nancy!
Thanks for hosting Cathy!

My daughter and I, along with some friends, went to the Jack-0-Lantern Spectacular. We saw thousands of carved and illiminated pumpkins. The artistry was amazing!
