Earrings for Family

Ahh, back from Bakersfield with a monster cold! But it was beautiful~~Poso Flats. Oak trees, granite rocks, cows, horses and my family.

Here's two pairs of the earrings I created for two of my SILs. The sheet is nickel, the beads are Swarovski. My SILs said thank you! I have the bestest sisters-in-law in the universe. Honest. They aren't paying me to say that.

I hope your weekend was blessed and you've slid into your week with grace. May God guide you and the Holy Spirit fill you!

Off to Bakersfield!

We're off! Bless all you guys and see ya later!

"Miracle" Resin pendant

Here's the other pendant I was working on while my husband was playing with his chainsaw. "Miracle" has a pic of my son Robert. He's 25 now, so he looks a bit older. Honest!

We are preparing for a long weekend in Bakersfield. It's about 5 hours from here, but we'll be taking the Lab and the Lab-Border-Collie pup. So potty breaks will be important! And I must make 4 pairs of earrings tonight and tomorrow~~my 3 SILs and my niece all have birthdays this month. So I better get to work :-)

Blessed Thursday to you all!

Tuesday and time to "Play"

Happy Tuesday All! Here's a resin pendant that I worked on during the "Tree Eradication by the Studly Lumberjack" on Saturday and Sunday. Hope you enjoy it and may your week be blessed. Way blessed, OK?

Monday Crazy Winds

It's blowin' in them thar hills!!! The wind was crazy today and is still going strong. I'll hunker inside...yes...in my jammies.

Here's a pic of one of my favorite pendants. I wear this necklace a lot. It's simple: labradorite, aquamarine and lodalite crystal.

May your Tuesday be joyful. With more smiling! Bless you, my friends.

My Husband Didn't Kill Himself!! Yay~

Ok, I know I haven't blogged since Thursday...we've been preparing for the big eucalyptus tree removal in our backyard. Me mentally, my DH physically. He really wanted to tackle the big old trees himself. They are dangerous, brittle trees. I tried to convince him that we needed to hire a service to take them down. He really wanted to do it himself~~~yikes!!! So here's what I've been seeing all weekend and praying hard about! Every "crash" left me a stress mess! I did work on jewelry to calm my nerves and I'll post them later. But PRAISE GOD he and his son, who was an enormous help, did not get hurt. Thank you Lord!

One of the trees was too close to our neighbor's property, so we will have to hire a service to take it down. Then we'll plant some sturdier trees...and this project will become a memory.

May you all have a blessed week, my friends. God is good!

Solderin' fool

I think I'm getting this soldering thing down more and more each time I try!!! Woo hoo!!! I don't have pics-- my Bible study group will be HERE at my HOUSE in 1 hour and I'm not ready yet. Hey, I'm so not Martha Stewart..LOL!

Bless you all! And may your Friday be a joy.
