Whitewater!

Ok, maybe not whitewater, but we did have fun kayaking on the Rogue River.

I'm in a Treasury!

A Treasury on Etsy is a collection of similar goods, items, color, themes, etc that is posted by a vendor or purchaser. It is a great way to promote your favorite items; and let's face it, they're just so pretty! Kevan snagged one, and included my Califonia Goddess! Check it out!

Creative Every Day

Earlier this year, I discovered the site Creative Every Day. My life is filled with good intentions, but as the saying goes, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. I haven't been nearly creative every day. Instead of trying to be creative *every* day, I'm going to aim for a couple of times a week. I haven't had to make any beads this week, but I did try a new recipe tonight. It's just coleslaw, but hey, it's a start.

Today's cuteness

Nice weekend

I had a nice weekend with my brother, SIL, and niece. It was my niece's and brother's birthday party. Good food, wonderful people. I even sold some beads. :)

Amber Waves

Up on Etsy tonight. Going to post and run, I'm awfully tired.

Chalcedony

Nummy! Here are my first experiments with Chalcedony from the wonderful women at Gaffer Girls USA. I buy my frit from JameyLynn at Howaco, which reminds me that I need to get an order together so I can swing by her place after my hair appt Wednesday...

I have another idea for a base under the Chalcedony, but I was an idiot and forgot to put sunblock on yesterday; I am too sunburnt to torch today.
