I had a little visit from my niece Erika today, who is on her way to a visit with grandpa. She designs the most adorable fun clothing on etsy. Her shop is called Spicy Toast. I own a couple of her creations myself.

This is Erika modeling some of my current favorites that are currently for sale on etsy. So cute!

Cute Purses you design yourself!

I made these today. Now I just wish I could buy them. The website is http://1154lill.com/

Really fun!

Porcelain Brooch Necklace

New darling vintage necklace I made yesterday. It has a ribbon back that you can't see in this picture (but you can see more pictures of it on my etsy page.)

I love the purple, pink , yellow and green color combo.

Mr Sam Malone

Sam shows up whenever I'm making jewelry, or taking pictures of it, or doing anything on the computer. We've had him for 18 years and I am very happy to call him my feline friend.

Recycled Bows

I saw this post on one of my favorite blogs called.."How about Orange" She made bows out of recycled newspapers, but really you could do it out of any paper. I just love the thought that this bow is recycled. Check it out! www.howaboutorange.blogspot.com

Fall leaves in the white mountains of Arizona

We had a great time in the mountains this weekend. The leaves are turning and the weather is perfect. I love fall!

Fall

Here in Arizona Fall means a second spring. Here is a rose from my garden. We're headed up to the cabin for the weekend so I'll get to see the leaves changing. I'm looking forward to wearing a sweater and taking some pictures of the fall leaves.
