New Pendant Idea...

I have wanted to do this for a long time, but get so busy with everything else, I don't end up doing things for myself (actually my mom). 
Here is another idea for a special order pendant necklace, or you could use it as a key chain.  Super cute, and reversable.

Reviews!!!

I had a blast looking at the 3 websites!

I can't stop thinking about some great finds with the websites sites such as, Luxe by CSN; All Modern; and Cookware.

Luxe by CSN has some hot shoes. These are my fav. Shoes make such a statement with your outfit- you can dress up or dress down. Hot! Free shipping and free returns, can't beat that!

All Modern is my ultimate favorite. I love seeing my kids faces smile. When they say more...more...(and it is ok-not like it's candy)...ok. Get ready for this one, wait for it...

Yes, it is a spinning chair! The name of this contraption is Bilibo Play Shell. It comes in many colors. I can't wait to spin them in this! I am getting it for sure! They have thousands of items that have free shipping. Another feature on this website is "see it for less". They will match prices to ensure that you have a great deal.  They also have drop leaf tables that are quite beautiful!
Cookware is full of the gadgets that you have not added to your collection. They have bar stools, All-clad (I use every day), and creme brulee fire torch. I love to cook.

Every year for Christmas we make creme brulee and hold your mouth shut if your on a diet cuz it is Amazing! Here is the recipe:...
Creme Brulee

Ingredients
8 cups heavy cream (2 gallon)
2 vanilla beans (cut & scraped)
2 eggs
12 egg yolks
1 2/3 cup sugar

Scald cream with vanilla bean. Wisk eggs, yolks, sugar. Slowly add cream to egg mixture while
whisking. Pour through strainer. Pour into ramekins, bake in waterbath for about 45 minutes at
200 degrees. Let set in fridge for 12 hours. Sprinkle with fine sugar & broil.

Hope you loved these products as much as I did!

Anyone play BUNKO?

Bunko is a great game made for gabby women with dice in hand.  I have played a few times...my brain got weird when I was trying to be so fast to roll the dice and have get the lucky roll of the right number.  (Really, no skill is involved which can be a good or bad thing).  I have helped several people with gifts for bunko.  I have done stars, zipper pulls, and these special made "bunko girl" pendants.  All packaged perfectly for each player so everyone can feel like a winner at Bunko.  These are $12 for the first pendant, $9 for any pendants after that (this size only, flat glass both sides).
I just wanted to let everyone see another possibility for Glitzy Glass Pendants.

Glitzy has created...and....NOW HERE......FREE template for Kids...

Last night my work was complete.
So, have kids?  Have grand kids?  Babysit? Anyways, Children are lovely, but it is best if kept busy while in public.  I have noticed when attention is focused elsewhere my sweet-adorable kids (who would never-wait) get into mischief. 
I wanted to offer something great for YOU for becoming a part of my email list and free Monthly Newsletter.  It will be implemented SOON.  We have a Instruction Sheet and Template.

Why Adam & Eve?  Well, Recycling..I have always involved recycling in my art.  I have included free magazine envelopes with each purchase.  I got a little creative.  Adam & Eve are made from Recycled paper.  Hopefully people who are familiar with the Bible will enjoy the future creations as well- for your children.  I want to help my kids think and pretend with these Bible stories. 
Enjoy, hope YOU and your kids love it.

Review from 'Survey Junky'

Survey Junky is GREAT!  I sent her some of our colored glass earrings and pendants.  This is a taste of what she had to say...
I've never had a pair of earrings like this or any other type of jewelry for that matter and have only ever had glass  decorations for my windows, yard and everything but myself. The earrings are very colorful and have sort of a tie-dyed rainbow pattern/effect to them. You know what they actually remind me of. Have you ever parked your car over a puddle with an oil leek of some sort or one that someone else has parked over and leaked in ? It leaves like a blurry rainbow color in it with blue, green yellow and purpley colors. that's what it looks like.

To see her link click HERE
We will be doing a giveaway with Survey Junky November 6th.  I will keep you posted.

For Football, or a Mission

Have you ever thought of a special order for your sweet son playing Football?  Really, they are getting all dirty, stinky, and playing a rough game.  You can't protect them out there, but you can keep them close to your heart...with a special order pendant. 

It would also be great for a Son who is on a mission.  To remember the Son who you cared for, made breakfast for, read Dr. Suess to, baked cookies for, and don't forget disciplined.  Now He is far away and you can look at him each time you wear your necklace.  For all the good memories,

and His learning moments.

And, I do have to tell what happened yesterday. 
Really, it is hard to take 3 kids with you to do errands-do men know that? 
I was dreading my next stop.  Last time Rex and Brighton were chasing each other screaming, going out of my site, and being NAUGHTY.
My youngest had fallen asleep.  So I had to be extra strong and careful not to wake her up.  I had 2 more errands to run.  We arrived at the post office being sure to park on the same side as the buildings so I didn't have to be worried the kids would die in the parking lot. 
I got to the door, some nice guy opened the door for me and told me I had my hands full.  I said "Ya, want to rent my children?"
So, we got in the line that led to the back door.  Kids were actually being ok.  Time passed, I got to the middle of the line.
BOOM  I look over, my face turned red.  In my brain I thought ahh, are you kidding me!  But, collectively I didn't talk, breathed...
I had my little girl pretend like she was mommy, watching the baby and keeping my place in line.  Me and 'Trouble Maker' headed over to a large card display.  I had noticed this display at another post office.  It had a bunch of nice photos of dogs taken in a weird way.  I thought, well if I liked pets, maybe...but after this I said FORGET this display.  We started to place all the fallen out cards back.  People kept saying, "You don't have to do that, someone else will get it."
I thought ya, but my kid won't learn his over-rated lesson.  So we started to stand it up.  It took me a while to get it to stand straight.
Done.  Got back in line.  Went to the front.  Flustered.  We sent all the mail.
Good News: Baby stayed asleep.
Bad News: One of the envelopes was in my mailbox today.  The lady helping us was clearly not paying attention where it said "FROM".  Now we will see what happens tomorrow when I take the package back.
Oh well, what a story right.
Just Comment, write your name, you know the drill.

Bracelet & Necklace special order

This special order was so fun. We made the bracelet portion for the watch. We also made one just like this with stretchy string wich was easy for her to put on and off. She loved this.

We also made her a pendant with her family on one side and colored glass on the other.

She had a locket with all those birth rinestones. We added it as a charm.

So fun, so many things you can do with special orders.
