Hi everyone! I have decided to make the commitment to renew my
vows
.... to my blog.

I am cleaning up and creating a
bright, fresh new feel and look to my blog and THE BIG NEWS IS;  I will be
finishing up some shabby chic pale pink roses paintings to post for
you!

Over the next few weeks to come I will keep you updated. I want to
have a launch date set and eye candy ready to go!

My goal was at first -
to blog once a day 5 days a week. I'm back and forth between that and 3 days a
week. I'll be narrowing it down as it's part of my "renewal vows".

In
the mean time - send me an email if you would like to know more. I'm very
excited and hope you will be too!

I know - I know... It's been a while since my last post. I have been very busy and this short post is just to let you know I have been cleaning out my studio (to make room for NEW) and I'm putting together GREAT bags of craft supplies. I think I'll call them "surprise supplies" and list them on my Etsy store. Goodies and more goodies.

I have also been busy writing. That is a surprise that I'll leak out a little later...

It's H U M P day! Enjoy!

I love Instagram. I can't believe how great this picture of my flowers came out on my iPhone! Have a great one everyone!
 
 
I don't know what it is but I just can't seem to get enough of Nail Art! 

Maybe it's the creativity that's involved or the "chic-ness" of glitter on my finder tips. Or maybe, it's because when I surf the web for pretty nail designs- I say outwardly "That's crazy! I would never wear those nails!" while inside I secretly see myself floating through rich parties with my long, fine fingers dipped in pearls and silver graciously carrying my tall glass of champagne! - And then I trip in my $750 heels, knocking over the waiter with his tray of caviar and break every one of my blinged out acrylic gel sealed 3 1/2 hour nails. Oh yea... that's me.

Anyway, have fun checking out some of my favorite over the top nail eye candy and oh.... here's a little nail art watercolor humor for you. By me.
Have any awesome HUMP DAY! (Comments are ALWAYS welcome)

Time to come out and face the day.  I'm ready to:  Work up some shabby chic watercolors; make some light colored bracelet designs; pick some Peonies; take some wonderful photos; ride the 4-wheeler through the fields; catch some butterflies; camp and roast marshmallows; get out my vintage chenille bedspreads; paint the walls pink and tiffany blue; make roses art and paintings;  and so on-and so on-!

Have a wonderful holiday weekend and please be careful if you are driving!
 
 
OMG - Listen, I LOVE these pretty, shabby chic bangles I have been creating - but never did I expect one of my bangles to hit the front page of Etsy!

Here's how it happened...

As you all know - I am IN LOVE with the romantic english cottage style and the hues that go with it.  So, I created.   And I created.   Until I came up with these awesome bangles with Double the Silver Tube Beads on soft colors of leather.

I noticed a lot of people were adding my bangles (especially the Mint) to their favorites. Nice! An order here - an order there. Then people began including them in to  their own Treasury Lists. Super Nice! 

Here comes the fun part:  I' m on the mobile with my BFF and my cell phone email just keeps buzzing and buzzing. Hmm. Weird. I run inside to check the computer and as soon as Etsy comes up - BAM! There it is! A most beautiful Front Page Treasury created by Stef Bauer of OneEyedGirls that she named O SO MINTY! 

All of the sudden orders came pouring in, emails, favorites and I have never met so many wonderful etsy people all at once like that! Wow; what a great feeling to get an item on the front page. 

I know there are many who get their art on the front page often. I would love for it to happen again but right now I am still processing what great fun that was and I'm hyped up on adrenaline.  I gotta get some sleep so I can finish packing orders tomorrow. There's always tomorrow!

Night everyone! - K
