{Little Rosebud Cabochon}

February 1, 2017

Hello February! I am so happy to see you! One of my favorite months during the year because it is my birthday month (February 6th) and the month of hearts! How can anyone not love hearts?!
January you were the darkest month I can remember in sometime! :( I hope that February will bring lots of light and love!

I created this little cabochon a few weeks ago and have been hoping to take a little picture of her (when the sun peeked through clouds) the other day. She is nothing fancy, but I am very tickled with her.

I loved this saying so much that art friend Dawn from the feathered nest posted recently it had to be shared! Such a beautiful statement and something each one of us should work on.

{Handmade Flower and Doily Bib Necklace}

January 22, 2017

This is a little necklace that I made and never listed in my shop. It is a bib style necklace. The crocheted doily is the focal point, and then I added a handmade fabric flower that I created. Inside each flower are vintage rosary beads.

I hope you are enjoying your Sunday!

{Soulful Adornments Necklace}

September 13, 2013

Way back in April, I enrolled in the online course Soulful Adornments with instructor Terri Heinz of artfulaffirmations.blogspot.com and finally I am posting my first little piece that was constructed during this class.

I was so excited to take part because soldering was a new avenue for me, but also because in December 2011 I met Miss Terri as she traveled through Michigan.

My necklace was made from old broken jewelry bits that came out of my own jewelry box, and a vintage rosary that I purchased. I love PURPLE so I was able to incorporate that into the piece as well.

My first beveled walls are a little crooked and quirky – but I did enjoy the process. The hardest part for me is shutting jump rings – something I am working on. Terri’s class was worth every penny! I learned so much and do hope to make many more of these altered adornments…and maybe make one as “beautimous” as her art one day!

A few little projects that have been created this week. Shabby cones with a cupid touch, a few tags, and more jewelry that hubby created. This time with hearts (my favorite) and lots of bling. Doesn’t seem like Valentine
s Day is quickly approaching because we have had super warm weather here in Michigan. It hit 48 degrees here…but that is supposed to change tonight – snow and cold temps are in the forecast. Doesn’t seem like January without snow! ;) Happy Thursday to you!
