Rest Day!


I *love* Sunday! It's the only day we have nothing we have to do. Seems like there are no breaks at all during the rest of the week. My oldest and dearest friend Lynne came over today and we ate cake, drank wine and carved pumpkins. SO much fun!
I have some beads in the kiln...they've been there since Tuesday....maybe I'll get them cleaned and listed tomorrow. Oh! There is a snowman on auction on eBay right now - a big one. He's a little over 4 cm head to toe. He's so cute :)
You know what's really hard to photograph (for me, anyway)? White. The pictures of the snowman look so blurry :( Trust me, he's not at all blurry in real life!

Almost better....maybe!




The sickness seems to be on it's way! Nothing worse than a bad head cold when the weather is still hot. yuck.
My last auction ended this morning and I haven't been able to get anything made in the last couple of weeks! That's an odd feeling ;) I've got Christmas on my mind...but I wonder if I start making Christmas stuff now if I'll be in a bad state of BAH HUMBUG by the time Christmas actually gets here....
I made a few snowmen a couple of weeks ago - I think they'll go to eBay, but maybe just to the craft fair. I would be delighted to take any custom orders for things I post here. Just send an email and ask!

siiiiiiiiiiiiick

Blah. I got hit with one of the worst colds I've ever had! ack. It seems to be on it's way, but still. It's really hard to make beads when you've had your fair share of cold medicine...just doesn't feel so *safe* lol.
I'm signed on to do a craft fair on December 6th! This should be loads of fun! I need to make an inventory. People at craft fairs don't tend to want loose beads....for some strange reason they want me to actually make stuff out of the beads. Whatever ;) So I'm thinking earrings, maybe pendants...what else? Keyrings? I have no ideas...how about zipper pulls? Think stocking stuffers. Ideas please!!!
Four auctions up right now - the last of the Halloween beads, a big amber pumpkin (super snazzy if I do say so) and some yummy chocolate lentils :)
