What Happened to June?

Wow!

I can't believe it's almost July! What the heck happened to June? 


It seems that summer has decided to come in slowly, so hopefully that means we'll have a long one, and speaking of long ones this is a long weekend coming upon us. 


I guess it will be heading up to the cottage for many families. Dust out the cob webs and freshen it up for all the days they will get to enjoy relaxing and most of all spending time together as a family.


I have been creating, a few jewelry pieces and a couple of sewing projects but just haven't listed anything yet. I've been I guess you could say melancholy. 


I hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather we've been having, here at least. lol  Depending on your location. I do hope all is well with everyone.


I wanted to update my blog and just mention a bit of what's been going on with me.


Today I've started taking pictures of my completed projects and hopefully get a couple listed this evening. I'm very pleased with my end results and feel the more I make, the more thought and care goes into each and every item. 


Please do come back to check my new listings to see if you agree with me and perhaps want to add something new to your summer wardrobe or to brighten up the day of someone else.


I would love to hear back from you, especially to perhaps list an item on my site that you have created.


Well, until next time, have a great long weekend.

I Now Have A Couple Followers!

What a great feeling to have someone following me now because it helps me feel like I'm not talking to myself anymore..:)

I would love to have links to your shops if you have any and would also love to hear what you are up to.

All suggestions and advice is welcome to help me along the way to hopefully increase my followers.  I feel kind of like I'm hijacking people when I do the Saturday blog hop because It seems that some just follows me because I follow them.  I do hope that each and everyone of my followers takes a minute or two to check out my blog and give some feedback on it.

Well I'm gonna go for now because I joined a 30day site for $7.00 trial to learn about Internet Marketing. Something that I have been interested in for the past few years.

Have a great wknd everyone and have fun.

Blog Surfing

Wow! I can't believe how many blogs are out there, and such a variety.

I must say that my blog looks a bit sad compared to the many that are out there, But I am following a few blogs to try and get some guidance and hopefully that will spruce up my blog too.

I am 55 and will be checking out things that I think are good, helpful, and of course beneficial to our health, so hang in there while I learn along the way.

Any comments are welcome and surely advice is welcomed with open arms.

And to go without saying I love to create, design, re-cycle and up-cycle.

A question to anyone who would be nice enough to answer....how do I put in a signature??

Well, gotta go for now to surf through many blogs and maybe I'll find the answer along the way.

Enjoy your Saturday everyone.

Talk soon.

Piles of Trials

What a funny and odd title, right?

The name just popped into my head because I am having so much trouble understanding how to upload items to my blog. I feel like an idiot.

I look at other beautiful blogs and feel, why can't I do that to mine, or, how the heck can I do things like that.

It seems simple enough to try and add a picture right here where I am posting, so I'll try and do that right now and see what happens.

Here goes, 
Oh my goodness! I can't believe I actually did it. What must have I been doing wrong in the past?

I am so glad that I gave it another try. I just hope it works as well when I am surfing and looking at some beautiful workmanship that I'd like to add. I'll just add a different view above. Hey pretty good. :)

I hope you have been enjoying your weekend and are getting ready to go and vote tomorrow, if you live in Canada.

Well before I go I wanted to mention that the picture I added is of a pretty lace flower that I made with lace, gold netting and copper wire. You can have a better look here in my shop on Artfire.

I'd love to hear from you and see what you're up to, and I'd be happy to display your work on my blog.

See ya soon,

How's It Sewing?

Before  I get started with my posting I wanted to mention the video that is
at the bottom of my blog.

I made it at "Animoto" and had a lot of fun making it. I will be putting it at the
bottom of the blog in a week or two so that anyone who might be interested
in creating one of their own, you could use this code   xloygciu


if You decide to upgrade at "Animoto" and You will get a $5.00 discount.
It only costs $30.00 for a year for a long version, or $3.00 each for the long
version if you want to make one while being a FREE member.

Try it. It's fun.


Okay, that's the end of that.  Oh one more thing, if you do make a vid, I'd love
to see it.:)

Is there someone You buy a gift for on Valentine's Day? 

I still get a little something for my daughters, even though they are both
adults themselves.

The great thing is, I have a grandson and granddaughter who I Love making
things for. Just watching how happy they are when they get their special gift,
is awesome.

I'm still in the process of uploading the few original designs I've made of
earrings, wool felt brooches, and necklaces that are completed and ready
to be shipped anywhere You want.

Your Valentine purchase will come inside a handmade red fleece drawstring
pouch, with a hand cut heart tag ready for You to write Your special message.

There are two different colours which are red/black, and red/white. I will be
randomly picking one when I am putting together your order.  If you prefer
one in particular, just leave a message in the "comment to seller" when completing
your order.

Here is a sample of the pouch        

and

the red and white.

I just love making things, and really feel good when someone chooses to wear something
that I've created, and I hope they can see how each piece is made with care and detail, even
if it's the simplest thing.

If You haven't taken a look at the Many Artisans associated with "ARTFIRE", you don't know
what You're missing.  You should get whatever it is you like to drink and sit down in front of
the computer to check out all the Great things, because I wouldn't know where to start in
describing some of them. :)

If You are into Anything Artsy and have a Blog, I would love to see it so please send me a link
and we can hook up.

Enjoy the rest of Your week.
