Hello all...
Very sorry that I have not posted 4 a few weeks... Had an emergency with my mom, and had 2 take her 2 the Hospital on Oct. 7th, by the 11th the Dr's were talking of sending her home...
But that never happened... Monday afternoon (the 12th) she coaded and went non-responsive.
Everything went way south after that... and we lost her on thursday Oct. 15th........
Her service is this Wed. (10/28/09) in Lincoln NE, at B. Mazer/Love funeral home 40th &A st.
at 1pm...... This has been so very hard 4 me & my brother, it hasn't even been 2 years since my dad passed away.....
I will be at my next two shows, but it will be a while be-4 I get my next post with pictures up 4 everyone to view..... please be patient with me......
thank U christina

Hello.... have been working hard to post new pictures... Man.... that is a chore when U don't really know what U-R doing.... I'm sure I will 4 get how I did it between now & when I have more pictures 2 share w/U...

But 4 now, please look through my full history. (its only about 2 weeks long) And keep in mind that I am also working on an Etsy shop for my blog also. That way my visitors will be able to purchase items that they like w/o having to leave home, or come visit me at a show.....

(I will have to re set my page, so more posts will show on my hope page with out a search)

I guess that's about it 4 tonight (Sunday) chow 4 now... cmw...=^,^=

This one is not quite done yet, I still need to make matching beaded dangles to hang from each
loop hanging over the edge of the plate, at each attached point.

oops... I forgot 2 rotate this pic. be4 I loaded it...
Anyway... it is a closeup on one of the beaded stations, of an embellished hanging container.

One on my newer items. I began making these embellished hanging containers back in June or July. I really enjoy laying out the beads that I use 2 embellish them.

A butterfly garden ornament.... isn't it cute??? =^,^=

The next few pictures will be of my stitched earrings, I learned this technique at a Nebraska Bead Society meeting. My friend and Jewelry Artist Jodie Marshall was the instructor.

What U see now are several variations of my Star Flower broach pins, and I am working on several more diff. color combos. I am also working to make some smaller ones, and some single layer ones for small hair clips. The prices range from $15.00 to $38.00-ish... if U see one you like let me know. I am working on an Etsy shop, but it will be a few more weeks be4 I have it
added to my blog for my blog viewers to shop.... more pics to come... =^,^= chow cmw

Good Monday to everyone...

Well... First I want 2 thank everyone who made the trek out 2 SW 14th street on Saturday to join us all at the Plain Song Folk Music Festival. It was allot of fun and the music was really good. The date for next year has already been set, and it is Sat. Oct. 2, 2010.... Unless something comes up, I plan 2 participate again. For next year I offered to help with some advertising, and I also suggested that the artists stay setup until 9pm. (which is when the music stops, so we would have our stuff on display from 1pm to 9pm) I also plan to offer a coupon for a special discount of your purchase at my display to help off set the ticket price at the door. However, all proceeds from ticket sales go right in to a fund for the next year's event, they R a non-profit and the price of the ticket is tax deductible and they can give U a receipt for that. Well enough of that, I had planned to take some pictures of my display to post to my blog, but yet again by batteries failed me... OH..... *!?#!*^@#!* :) So.... Sunday I went out and got some NEW BATTERIES....... we'll see if that helps.... For now I will add a few pictures of other items that I have available 4-sale....

chow 4 now... Christina... =<^,^>= (that's supposta' be a kitty...)

this photo shows 5 embellished hanging containers... as U can see, they have a future with many uses for everyone... with 2 of them I have includes a candle....

Good evening to all.... Very busy day, running errands all morning, then I spent the afternoon at the printers. Working on some new temporary business cards, with my new blog add. , display cards for my Star Flower Broach pins, new info labels for the backs of my earring cards, and then I can't forget little hang tags for my new line of Embellished Hanging Containers. I will try to post a picture of my embellished hanging containers, but I'm not a prow at that yet, so don't hold your breath.... :')
