Beads, Beads, Beads

I am inot beading...hooked into it is more like it!!! MY friend has introduced me into making patterned like "Intarsia" style earrings...ohhh what fun...but I have to mention these wonderful little creatures I have found over at Schmooville. They are the cutes. Pop right over there and she sells not only the beads but also the kits and all the directions.....I love them....

My Apron for my Swap Partner

New Projests, Swaps, Birthday Cakes, and Pond Plants

This is a chimes I designed [see the post below for close up shots at the beginning of making it]and made the tails out of plastic tablecloth and below is a post card I got from my quote card swapper friends.

This is the cake I got my g-son for his 12th birthday

The candles were the ones that keep coming back on and look at the plants around my pond! Wow...they have gotten so tall...and one of them are still blooming...look how pretty in pink it is...

wow what a view through all the plants looking at the falls

and my anniversary flowers from my DH.. :)

these were taken over Labor Day at our cabin, this little guy came to visit and I caught him about 50' up the tree

look at my shopping find! What shall I make??? hmmm....so many new goodies... :)
