Yummy...

I added Ferne's tastefully simple website to my Shopping links on the right, You can order right there and it ships right to your door, the foods are really good, my favorites right now are the Almond Pound cake, the orange dream chiller (smoothie) and the bbq sauce!

You can click on any links over there and be instantly transported to somewhere else, don't you just love the internet!

I have been a little busy but will have some photos up soon of jewelry and other stuff, going to the bead show in phoenix this weekend, and we will take in a diamondback baseball game while we are there so stay tuned for more fun!

Sorry been busy!

I would like to thank my friends for coming over to the Tastefully Simple party I had Thursday, we tried new stuff, I love their Bbq sauce and Orange smoothie drink mix!!
I will put Ferne's website link on the blog as soon as she gets it to me so if you would like to buy some stuff you can...it is quick easy food mixes that taste great.

Other news....we are getting the pool ready, I have to clean the filters and test the water and wait for the temp to come up some more, we did not realize how long it would take to heat up such a deep pool, 5 ft to 12 ft, so we just have to keep the solar cover on until were are up to temp, I like 80 and over, charlie can go in 75ish but I can't. brrrr.

Ok off to get more work done today on the scrapbooks and put more jewelry in my etsy shop!
Have a fun saturday!

Music for ya...

I wanted to share some rolling stones with you and when I came across my all time favorite stones national anthem song put to a video of the relationship of pam and jim from the office, I knew it was the one to share...not only do you get a great song but you get the highlights of the office, a show which I am a big fan of, now that the biggest loser is over (yeah for ali!!!! is she tone and trim or what!!) I will be watching american idol and the office every week now.....so anyway, here you go- this is a great song to put on your work-out playlist as well, I am on my treadmill everyday now and this song really gets me walking....

Gotta Share...


I know I am supposed to be scrapbooking...but I wanted to share some jewelry I have made in the first part of the month, the first photo is charm and chain, I love this one but can't decide what shirt to wear it with...can't seem to find the right fit to go with it..ugh, I hate being a fashion flunky....the 2nd picture is a copper flower, oh that is so much fun to play with, I have said it before, cutting copper and coloring it is FUN, and we even soldered a little with that piece. The earrings were my birthday gift from Mandy and they just matched the copper flower so perfectly I had to share them too!! That was a strange thing, she bought them in San Francisco and when she got back we had the class so the matching was not planned!! I love it all!! Ok.. back to scrapbooking!!

Guitar Hero!

Ok, I Love to wire wrap stuff! I bought this guitar at the show, it is dichroic glass, something I would like to learn to make, but you need a kiln and a ton of glass scraps to play with and molds! Maybe someday! But for now I will buy these real cool pieces and wrap them up!
I may sell this one in my shop because I used it to practice, the coolest guitar is the one I kept for myself...wait till you see it! I need more wire though so stay tuned...in the meantime enjoy:
Guitar Hero 1

Glass and bead expo

I went to the southpoint friday and spent the day with friends shopping at the glass and bead expo. We shopped, I bought silver art clay, lampwork beads and clasps for my jewelry.
We took a break and went to lunch at the yard house in the town square, it was good, I had the fish and chips. Then we went back and finished the show till they shut the doors!
I have put more jewelry in my etsy shop so go to www.peaceloveandartshop.com and check it out!
Remember Etsy is for handmade stuff only, you will get quality stuff but you must be willing to pay for it, the artists put their heart and soul into each piece! Trust me!
