My Precious....

Oh yeah...I made this ring a couple weeks ago in class...I love it...it came out kinda celtic!!

It is my favorite for now...my precious.....

A worthy cause...

I have been following the story of the vick dogs, the horribly abused dogs from the football player who is in prison for his crime against these poor animals. I am not normally a dog person, they never seemed to like me and I was scared of them for years, but we have had a few good ones, (lacy and woody)...and my sister has had some real sweethearts that won me over, (calvin and cujo)...well, this wine company has had an artist paint portraits of the vick dogs and put them on wine labels, the money will go to help the dogs, they are in Utah at best friends shelter getting the help they need to become healthy and hopefully rehabilitated so they can have loving homes.
Anyway if you want to buy some wine for your favorite wine lovers this christmas and give to a good cause at the same time please go to:
Dog Lovers Wine Club

Also in the giving spirit, Mandy has put a site on her blog that allowes you to give free food to animals by clicking on the link everyday! http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/clickToGive/home.faces?siteId=3

Thank you!!

Scrapbooking must haves!

Ok I do not have any photos yet of our crop, debbie took all the pictures so I must wait for copies...in the meantime, I learned of some new fun tools for all you scrapbookers out there, the first is a new tape runner gun...

Oh this is SWEET! You have tons of tape to use and you get a fun gun to alter and decorate, I love this site https://www.albumsandanswers.com for buying one as she has them already painted for you, green, purple, pink..I ordered a green one, to match my eyes of course! It is on its way thanks to Sue over at https://www.albumsandanswers.com Go order yours today, it comes with 3 refills too!

The other item I found was a clikit tool from karen foster, neat way to add eyelets and more, I can see embossing on copper with this tool for jewelry making!

I also want to buy a crop in style P3 paper tote!!But they are no longer being made and they are going for astronomical amounts on ebay, but wow, what a great way to travel to crops with paper, I will keep searching until I find one!

Hi

Hey sorry I have not posted, debbie is in town and we have been running around like crazy! Spent all day saturday at sunset station at a scrapbooking crop, stayed the night, good thing cause we were up till 1:00am gambling! No big wins though!
More running around today, she heads home tuesday...
Be back soon with photos and more!

Jewelry class...

Here it is, wow, that pendant is pretty neato...it is much better in person, it is all 3-d, the peace sign sticks up and the border around the piece frames it then you have the word on its own sign, it was a fun piece to make and yesterday I strung with turquoise and coral and silver, I can't wait to wear it next summer! A whole set! I will be keeping this set for myself!
Ok back to work...

Pumpkin fun!

Found this photo on the internet and just thought it was too funny not to share!
Well, work is real busy right now so I have been in the office a lot...so not much to report here.
Sunday I made a silver art clay pendant that is out of this world awesome, so I will post that soon!
In the meantime, keep busy, and keep happy,
and stay tuned for more fun in the desert sun...

Here is the finished bathroom, well, I need a picture for above the towel rack, if you did not see the before scroll down to saturdays post! It took me all day saturday about 8 hours, I like it! That mint green was driving me nuts that was on the wall, next project is to get rid of the peach walls in the master bedroom and bathroom!
