Buy Handmade

Finally!

I finally got my butt in gear and made some new stuff! I haven't worked with paper in a while and I really needed a break from the custom beading orders I have been working on so I made these cute Christmas gift tags that can double as ornaments.

4th of July

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend! We did. We spent the day cooking and getting ready for my sons 8th birthday party. The boys had a great time with Grandpa. Watching the monster truck crush cars, playing on water slides, playing in the river then finally settling down to a nice barbecue dinner and a Star Trek cake.



Once it started to get dark we moved our chairs out to the road and prepared to watch my brother the pyrotech do his thing. It was an awesome show yet scary at the same time. Watching the sky as the fireworks go off yet trying to watch the ground to make sure everything goes up into the air the way it's supposed to. Over all it was a really great day.
