0 What's New Wednesday 12/3/14 (Gift Guide, Blue Flowers and a Monarch Butterfly)

Oh my, it is Wednesday already!! I have so much to do, but today is a day of peace, beads and music!!  Last night I worked hard to get all the laundry, cleaning and 'stuff' done so that today I can sit and enjoy the day!!  I have a VERY regimented routine, but somehow 'life gets in the way' and the routine seems to become just a 'guideline'!!!  :)  But, today I am free!!!! :)  

Do you work from home?  Are you on a schedule or just 'play it by ear'?  Do you run your business like a BUSINESS????   I'd love to hear about it! 

Have you seen it yet????  Please check it out...so much AMAZING creations to see!

I am curious, who watches my creations grow???  Do you like me showing the 'working photos'??  You can come on over to my Fan Page, Google+ Page, or my Instagram Page; I post 'working photos' throughout the day! Here is where I left off yesterday!!

Today I have a very special artist to feature - paintingfromtheheart.   My dear friend Ms. Elfie painted these amazing creations for me.  I told her that I didn't have any name plate or sign on my office and here is what we came up with!!!!!  The large clip is on the side of my door and the plaque is on the door itself!  I received the package yesterday and immediately put it up on my office door.  I have several of her beautiful creations throughout my house and am PROUD to add her creations to my office too!!  Please, go visit ALL her sites and let her know that I referred you.....I would be proud too!! And remember, always support handmade artists whenever you can!

2 Weekend Re-Post 9/9/12

 

Weekend Re-Post from 3/21/12

Marvelous Monday

So, this was a weekend of fun, friends and family - MARVELOUS!!!

On Friday night one of my dearest friends and her family arrived for the weekend with her family.  It was wonderful to have them here.  

 

She brightens my day - like a Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow - just with her presences!!!

Then Mom-in-Law spent the day with the kids as a local Church Carnival - they were HOT, exhausted and full of laughs when they got back!

While they were gone Hubby and I planted and worked on the yard!  It was HOT, tiring and very gratifying!!!

Over the weekend I also received a custom order from paintingfromtheheart.  This lady - over the last few years - has become a wonderful friend to both myself and Kris (ApronsbyMeMe).  I had Ms. Elfie make these wonderful little trinket boxes for us... for Kris it was a complete surprise!  

 

Aren't they perfect?  

Here is a couple more of her items.....

My biggest problem - how can I just choose one more???

And then you see this work - it is her's as well....

Talk about TALENT!!  Please go visit her and let her know how BEAUTIFUL she is - and her work!!  

I hope that you are all having a WONDERFUL and MARVELOUS Monday - I know I will!!  ~KM
