His name was Erwin...

...and i touched him!


Todd couldn't even wait till he was on the serving platter...



...what a day we had!

Holiday Bazaar

so i didn't end up selling a single thing... now i have a huge collection of jewelery and nowhere to wear it...

little things...

it doesn't take much to make me ridiculously happy....


a beautiful table for sharing good food with great friends

a warm fire on a cold evening - and one blissed out cat!

i like to create things... but i never thought of myself as the super duper crafty-business type... my items have always been on a whim and for a gift. one of those gifts was a pair of trendy earrings for a birthday present a few years back... and the other day the recipient called and asked me to make lots more to sell in a holiday bazaar.... and i said "why not?" umm... the reason why not is that i am a student, i have no time, and i have hardly any money to go out and buy new supplies... however, i really really wanted to... and because i have a wonderfully supportive husband who encourages these whims, i did... and this is what i made:



not earrings, but just as lovely?
