Winner of My Give Away and Fun Stuff


The winner of the SPRING GIFT NECKLACE is.......imagine a drum roll please....
The Robins Nest. Yeah, yuppie, hurray! Ms. Robins Nest, 
please leave your email on the comment section of this blog.  
I will email you to obtain your shipping address.
I want to thank all of you who entered to win and I hope to have 
more Give Aways in the future. It was fun and encouraging 
to read all of your comments.  

My youngest munchkin brought this home from school. We have 
all colored eggs,but I thought his teacher was so cleaver to glue a 
water bottle cap to the bottom. Now his Easter egg stands up perfectly.  
The egg was also sprayed with a clear coat of poly so his art work 
is sealed. Kudos to my munchkin's teacher. He made the basket 
too. Alas, the candy didn't make the camera shoot.
Now, for all of you who want to learn how to create jewelry using wire (ie. wire wrapping), this book is my favorite.  All Wired Up has really been the only jewelry book that I continue to reference.  If any of you are wanting to purchase beads and make your own creations, this book can be very helpful.
More fun projects!  I purchased a peg doll kit from pretty ditty (about a mo. ago) and I am getting around to constructing the dollies.  So far, so good.  The instructions are very straight forward and I have not come across any bumps on the road.  They might not have faces yet, but at least they aren't naked.  My teenage son said I was weird to put undergarments on them, but I think it's lady-like.  The tan Brina Peg Doll is wearing her water polo suit and will hopefully have a ball to take to her game.  Brina will also have a cute dress to change into after her team wins the game.  The second dollie is still missing an identity.
This is how cute the dollies are suppose to look like.  Uh, yeah, well...I'll do my best anyway.
