Some favorites




As you know, I have been in a slump for awhile as far as creating goes. I finally got my sewing table cleaned off and set up. YEAH!!! I'll share some pics of the new set up soon. It's not a good pic day here today. Rainy. Anyway I thought I'd show some pics of some faves. I'm really trying to get back in the swing of blogging and creating again. It's been way too long.

Looks like a couple of my critters jumped out at me so here is todays faves. My adorable little chameleon and my sweet little parakeet. These are both brooches. They are both available in my shop.

Have a great day!!!!

Apologies

Hi everyone. Wow I didn't realize it had been so long since my last post. Unfortunately my online adventures have taken a back seat to life lately. As some of you have read earlier I was looking for a job for quite awhile and I found a great job that I loved, but they cut their payroll and did away with my position. I was heartbroken, but hopefully things are turning around.

I was working inside Joanne's Fabrics in the sewing machine dept. for Viking. Well I was able to get a position with Joanne's as long as everything goes thru. I am a worrier and am concerned about the credit check. I was denied employment at one place because of my credit which completely boggles my mind. How can I improve my credit if I can't get a job? I can understand if something came up in the background check, which there's nothing, but bad credit? Have any of you run across this? Well I start on Wednesday if everything is good. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. I love Joanne's and am in there all the time anyway, so this job is perfect for me.

Working for Viking has inspired me to dig out my sewing machine so hopefully I will have some new creations to show you soon. I was able to get an embellisher while I was working there so I can't wait to start playing with it. I have to clean up my sewing area before I open it or it won't get done.

Well that's it for now. Hope to have some definite good new to share later in the week.

New Blog

I've decided to start a separate blog for my nail polish and make-up posts. It's called Nail Maiden. I hope you'll pop on over and take a peek.

I hope to be able to get back to creating soon. Things are settling down at work and I'm getting back into the swing of working. See you soon.

Glitter tips


Well I was going through my collection and I came upon this very chunky glitter and decided to use it for a funky french over my Greenwich Village. It made it last longer at turned out pretty cute I think. It has light blue, grass green, and holographic glitter in it. It is from Old Navy and it's called Baubles, unfortunately my Old Navy closed up recently, but I bought this a long time ago.

Fun challenge


Well I finally got off my butt and got something made. This is for my Etsy street team Melange. We have a challenge every Wednesday on the blog and this week the word was "FUN". I had to make something because it was my word that I suggested. I actually made this piece start to finish in one sitting. I think that is one of my problems that I over think everything. This one I just went with whatever popped into my head and did it. I had lots of fun with it and hopefully it has started me to get over my slump! Hope you enjoy it. It will be for sale in my shop as well.
