4 Talented Tuesday 10/7/14 (Ms. Esmeralda - Green Aventurine, Fall is in the Air and Heather's Lou Who)


I have to say that I am so very proud of my newest creation!! It has been so much work, but like everything else in life (and crafts) most wonderful things are!! This necklace kept me 'sane' last week when my computer was down!  And now that it is done I just keep looking at it.....I really want to just 'show it off'.  How wrong is that?  

Do you ever create something and then really want to brag about it?  Usually I don't, to much, because for me the creating is what I get the most pleasure from.  BUT, sometimes there are those creations that I just want to take from 'door to door' and say.....see what I did????  Well, this is one of those!! I have entered it into the Fire Mountain Gems Swarovski Crystal contest....I'll let you know when I do if it places!! :) 


I finished it, listed it and I have to say, I am PROUD!! This necklace looks very much like what I had in visioned in my mind!! I do not draw out the designs on paper, but they are definitely in my head! When I started, this is what I was thinking of, and here it is!!

 And with the completion of a project I get to pull colors and start a new creation!! I am feeling FALL in everything I do, so this stone just 'spoke' to me!! Want to watch it be created?? Please come on over to my Fan Page, Google+ Page, or my Instagram Page; I post 'working photos' throughout the day!


 

There are already several people signed up, so get your spot while you can!! Prices start at only $5 with over 2200 views last year (and I was late getting it out) you would only be paying .002 cents per view....that's better than just about anywhere else!!!

So let me know, $5 for Name and up to 5 lines of text (or business card copy); $15 1/2 Page of your artwork (or I can help with that) Tall or Wide; $30 FULL Page of your artwork (or I can help with that) ; $50 2 Page SPAN and business card copy in the directory. Tell me which one(s) you would like and leave your email address and I'll send you an invoice via PayPal. HURRY, first in get closer to the front!! :) ~


 For anyone that is 'watching', can you go to my ArtFire Studio and look it over, please? They have changed the entire look and style....I'd love to have your take on it!!

P.S. You can check out the DESTASH Studio too, it looks new too!! ~KM


Today I want to introduce Ms. Heather Stanger of Heather's Lou Who. This amazing artist says that she does 'woodworking and crafts that utilize recycled and upcycled products', but, she does so much more than that!! 

Her creativity goes beyond the common - so far beyond!! Sitting with her husband on a chilly night, bottle caps where changed into romantic candles along a porch rail!! Old wine bottles have become 'man' lights with a few adjustments!! A broken down dresser on the side of the road (with cleaning, paint and some new knobs) becomes a beautiful Beachy accent for any room in your home!! You will really be inspired when you see some of her 'upcycling'!! 

For today, go check out her Fan Page and her Blog, tomorrow I'll tell you more about her and show off some of my favorites I found on her pages!!

And, she has a grand opening coming up at the Tiki Grove on October 18th in Saint Augustine, Florida!!


Today I would like to leave you with this thought;

Sooner or later we all quote our MOTHERS!! ~Bern Willimas
