Finally!!!

After about 30 attempts to get my Etsy link working, it FINALLY is working! They did some major maintenance over there so I think something was up on their end....:)

I have done nothing but bury myself in my room working on items to put up on Etsy. I am obsessed! And I don't know why.

Except maybe because it's fun????

Here are some things that I'm putting up as soon as Etsy gets it's groove back!

I just have to try this.....

I learned something new (I hope)...

Let's see if this works....

Oh, I forgot.....

I wanted to show you some new things that I made over the weekend....:) Oh yeah, if anyone goes to WalMart and see's the "Tuscan Pizza" in the deli, it's REALLY good! Can you believe it? And I'm not even a pizza fan!

Some of the pix may have lines in them, that's because I scanned the items and my darn scanner makes lines in the pix! Does anyone know a cure? I've done all of the troubleshooting that they recommend.

The pendants above have a front and back....I'll let you guess what goes with what! Ha!

I told a tale!

But I didn't mean to! I just got busy and didn't post those pictures of the faux concrete items. A couple of days late but here they are (above of course!)

I have had so much fun with Etsy! If you have never checked it out you really need to, mainly handmade items and let me tell you, there are some talented people who sell on Etsy! Then there are those that fall into the minimally talented category (that would be MY category,ha!). You can sit and watch the new things that have been posted by going to the main page and here's a link....http://www.etsy.com/index.php

Go and check it out. Hmmm, what did you say? Oh, you want the link to my shop? Oh my, well, if you INSIST....http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5103560....hope it works, I can't get the link to the right to work!!!

How was everyone's weekend? We were cold, wet and windy here as I'm sure many of you were. I thought Spring was here! We had to turn on the heat again and just a few days ago the air conditioner was running. My poor azealeas just couldn't keep their beautiful flowers on after all the wind and rain here, I'm sad to see them go.

Becca, if you read this, watch your mail! :)

Bye all, I might be back later!

Becca, I posted this for you!

That's one of my favorite vintage postcard images! If they aren't the same they are very similar!

Indulging in a favorite pastime....

I've been indulging in a favorite pastime lately....art! Tho I've been busily making things to put up on Etsy I have the time to think about things I'd like to do as I go alomg. You know how it is, one thing leads to another, to another, to another......of course I forget 85% of my ideas before I can ever carry them out! Lol! Above are some past works.....

Hmmm, can't imagine why I can't get the link to the right to work (my Etsy shop). the link below works and it's the same thing....? Oh well, I'll worry about that later! Here are some things that I am selling on Etsy...of course they are on top,lol! I can't figure out how to make them go where I want them! So sorry....I'm hoping to get some more glass slide pendants up soon.

I found the cutest thing at an antique shop a few weeks ago. Faux concrete items. I need to take some pictures of them so you can see. I got 3 things, 2 faux birdbaths and 1 faux basket with a wire handle. Even the lady at the check out thought they were concrete until she picked them up! I have several ideas on what I want to do with them, just haven't decided for sure which it will be. Anyways, I'll post pictures tomorrow. Really! I promise....:)

I can't seem to get the right thing for posting my Etsy shop....let mehttp://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5103560 try this...

Oh, I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! This was the coldest Easter I can ever remember. I had already planted some tender plants out in pots and they were hit pretty hard altho the roses that are blooming didn't seem to suffer at all and I was certainly happy about that as they are full of blooms and buds. Well, more buds than blooms...:)

I haven't posted for a while because first of all my husband was on vacation. We didn't go out of town but we did spend a lot of time at the lake. The weather was perfect! Secondly, I opened up an Etsy shop and was busy dilly-dallying with that.

My friend over at Wisteriaplace has a contest going on to see who can give her ideas on what to do with her fireplace. Her link is to the right so go on over and visit!

I'm going to try and be better about posting, really!

Do you like strawberries? Look what I made.....it's up at the top. Anyways, it's a strawberry tart and yes, it tasted like Spring! There are some pictures of some of our azealeas starting to bloom out and a rose and some of my pansies. I haven't been very good about taking pictures lately!!!
