BOO! That's as scary as I get.

This is the extent of my halloween decorating cause I am a scary cat. 

 I found  this not so cute huge spider at the second hand store over the summer and thought I could do something for halloween with it- not to scary though.  This is how I found it. It was a remote control spider,I think and paid a whole 95 cents for it.

This is what I used.

I glittered the legs first in red and black.  I used tinsel glitter.

And this is how spidy turned out.  My husband hung him from fish line down the side of our front porch.

BOO!  Don't eat too much candy ladies.  Have a good week.

Writing...and writing and waiting to create, Sigh!

I'm trying to sneek in some creative time in between work responsibilities.  It's funny - as I write (currently working on a grant for my work), I seem to wonder off into space and start dreaming about what I 've seen in everyone's blog lately or what I'd like to make next.  I have to slap myslef back into reality cause I am no where near done with work. 

I need to get out to Jo-Ann Fabric and Crafts to pick up the latest Stampington & Company issues of Artful Bloging, PRIMS, and Where Women Create.  This should pacify me for a while.

Oh!, by the way I am looking for a post I saw on someones blog of a half apron made from many pieces of fabric - I think it was a gift from someone.  It was so pretty and embellished.  Does anyone remember this post? Longshot huh?  I meant to write the blog name and post date so that I could go back to it but of course I forgot and now I need it.

On their way to becoming bracelets.



Putting on Etsy sometime this year...   ;)

This is what keeps getting in the way.

More pretties waiting their turn.

And this will stay like this until I dig myself out of my work - the one that gives me a paycheck.

More to post on Etsy.

Happy creating everyone!  I will enjoy the bits and pieces of time I can create and immerse myself in all things blingy and blessed.  Have a great one everyone!

TODAY IS MY 48th BIRTHDAY

Funny I don't feel 48.  What should a 48 year YOUNG feel like?  As far as I am concerned I feel the same, just a few aches here and there, LOL...

Here is a picture of me and four out of 12 of my nieces who are like my daughters...I don't have any of my own but I sure have them.  LOVE THEM TO PIECES!

This birthday cake was yummy!  

Have a great week everyone!
