Some New Pretties

Well here is the bracelet that I made with Jane in mind. Jane I promise I will email you tonight with pics!



I used the new camera at work and I lvoe it but I forgot what a pain it can be to take pics of jewelry. As you can tell with the too pics I was playing with using some different lighting the gold tone is actually the color in the first picture.

Anyways I will hopefully post some new pics of another piece tonight, alas I am at work on lunch and I must say it is so nice outside. It feels like spring today I think we might even hit 45 degrees. I know I can barely describe how wonderful it feels. I swear I am ready to run home and drag out the sandals already. Granted yes we are supposedly getting a nsow storm next Monday. I'm not sure if you all know this or not, but I love sandals, if I could I would wear them all year round, unfortunately since I live in MN I can't!

Oh well lunch is over and I should get back to work :( Alas I just want to run out in the open and feel the sun on my face all afternoon. Maybe later! Until then.

Hello Basket

Ever have one of those weekends, I had a show yesterday so I decided on Friday to sew, which I really don't know how, new table linens from some vintage curtains. I finished without finishing the edges which I am quite proud of granted there are some mistakes but they turned out real pretty thanks to some helpers at Joannes. Fast forward to Sat. no clean socks, so I stole some of Oh's and headed out the door, late, but with clean over sized socks. That is the type of weekend I have had last minute, car problems, I swear it is possessed i will be paying tomorrow to find out why the car is posses ed hopefully it will be cheap. In other happy news, see below.



Thanks to the wonderful Molly, I have received the coolest Easter Basket ever. She really did a great job, plus she was so on the ball she was already shipping hers, and I had only bought the basket. she even sent Lola her own goodies bag, which she loved the toys Molly was so sweet to send her. just check out the pics, Molly you did a wonderful job and thank you so much!




Other than that it has been crazy around here, Jane, you know who you are, I have finally made a bracelet in your color palette, I have some pics, but of course they are at work, so I will email you this week. I am so sorry it took this long to find the pieces, who would have known that gold and blue were hard to find together, or it is just that I was looking for them.

Anyways finished a show yesterday and am currently uploading some more vintage flowers to Etsy and then inventorying jewelry for a boutique drop off tonight. Then i think it is time for some laundry. Do I sound crazed a little in this post? Well i am so feeling like a maniac you wouldn't believe it! Until next time.

Okay blogger is being a pain and not loading my pics, I have been trying all day, and darn it I give up, I am off to bed, maybe tommorow I can share the beautiful basket I received.

Junque in your Trunk!

That makes me giggle everytime, well Heather over at Pretty Pretals is hosting a new swap, Junque in my Trunk Swap, I just love it and it is a fabulous idea, head on over and chekc out this swap, she is only taking 50, and there was about 40 comments when I went over so head on over. Heather this is such a fabulous idea, I am still giggling.

Crazy Daisy

Well sorry I have been MIA seems to be a theme lately, I accidentally over booked myself for the next two months but the real problem happens this week. I have three events going on so of course i waited till the last minute and decided I needed to make a ton of new stuff. So I have been going full force for the last week or so. All will be fine, but I am still behind on taking photos of the fun mail I have been getting so sorry ladies I promise i will do it. I really do it just might be awhile longer still.

Other than running like a crazed women, I have been taking Lo to the vet, poor thing ended up with frost bite. So of course I feel horrible but I still can't believe it, she is never outside long. The vet was really nice and had to explain to me it wasn't my fault over and over. Apparently since she is so short she is getting wet or moist and having some problems with one nipple being frost bit. Still horribly embarrassed by my apparent lack of a parent. Plus Lo is pissed due to the Elizabethan collar she has to wear while I'm at work. But after a few days it is starting to look better and she is no longer licking it. Score for me. So it has been crazy as usual and I am falling behind. Here is too a fabulous week to all and hoping spring hurries it's but up in Minnesota!

Kentucky Derby Hat Swap

Does this not sound like a fun swap, if your interested head on over to Bristol's Blog, Honey Bend Vintage. I can't wait to start!

Pretty Flowers

So since I forgot to email home my Valentine's flowers here they are now, they are super pretty. I normally always get red roses, and although I have nothing against red roses, I do prefer a more colorful lot. So this year OH surprised me completely.

Here are some closup's of my pretties, which I way dead at this point so I have them on my computer.



Other than that still trying to fight whatever it is I have and stay warm. It is so cold again. I don't think I am going to make it to spring. Also I have to share some of my swaps I have received some of the coolest stuff and I just need to take some photos. Seems to be the story of my life huh. Until then.

OWOH Winner

We have a winner, Margo from Margos Memories Musings. So Margo please send me an email and these pretties are on the way to you!

In other news, Happy Belated Valentines, I took some pics of the lovely flowers I received and then forgot to email them home. Oops, i took them at work with the super cool new camera. Oh well what to do, other than that I was off to the doctors today I haven't been feeling well I wasn't sure what was wrong and get this I have an infection in my lymph node? So hopefully after a few days on antibiotics my neck will not be swollen and my ear won't feel like it is an elephant. Totally not fun, but way better than the flu.

Anyways I am still in resting mode, so I will be back tommorrow hopefully with something exciting right now I just want to hibernate and eat a lot ice cream. What ice cream is good for a sore throat don't ya think. There are no calories in that ice cream, no sir! until then

PS Margo I couldn't find an email so I left a comment on your blog!
