Snowflake Ornaments!

A week and half ago,I went to a ladies ornament exchange.I made my own ornament,like I usually do,and came up with this snowflake design.

(My mom ended up with my ornament..funny story.haha.)
So I took pictures of it,and listed some as made to order on etsy.It says it will be one to three business days before they are shipped out,but depending on how many orders I have to work on,it should just be one day.You can also request Priority mail for faster shipping.If you buy several things,this is a great option,as I can fit a lot in a small flat rate box. :)

I also made a smaller version.This one is ready to ship.

And a small golden snowflake.

I'm working on making tiny ones (1" in diameter) that I'll sell in sets of three.Hopefully I'll have some of those listed tomorrow! :)

I think these snowflakes would be soooo pretty for a winter wedding,to decorate with.You could hang them from the ceiling at the alter,like I've seen some people hang different things.

You can also get a deal on these snowflakes,if you buy two or more snowflake ornaments of any color or shape,you can receive 10% off your total order.Just use code "SNOWFLAKE10" at checkout. :)

P.S. The giveaway ends tomorrow!This is your last chance to enter it if you want to. :) Thank you to all who entered.Can't wait to see who will win.

Sparkly Blossoming Branch Collection

I thought I would show off a bunch of earrings that I made and listed recently in my etsy shop.They all are made with these really pretty cut seed beads that sparkle and have an AB coating.I made them in the "Blossoming Branch" design.I think they are really great for fall and for the holidays.I don't know what it is about cold weather,but as soon as it strikes,I am immediately drawn to all things sparkly,blinged out and glittery.Do you find yourself liking more flashy stuff during the winter,or any other particular season? :)

Some Pretty Music I Love

I love music sooo much,and often have 8 tabs open to just youtube when I'm online.Finding new (to me!) songs and artists make me very happy.I thought I would share a few amazing songs I recently discovered.

"A Fine Frenzy" is so good.I had heard of it a while back,but never checked out their music till a month or so ago.


The song "Edelweiss" is not new to me at all,as "The Sound of Music" has been a favorite since I was a child,but the band "The Honey Trees" is.I suggest the song "Love and Loss",also.(This song always reminds me of the small white kitten I named after it when I was eight. )


I've loved Christina Perri for quite a while,and her new song for "Breaking Dawn" is so sweet.Even if you dislike that book and movie series,this song is worth a listen.The music video is beautiful,too.I love her gown,and all those candles makes me want to fill a big empty room with tea lights!

New House

It's been so long since I've blogged!
We did eventually find a place,and it's in the same town,which I was very happy about.We had to wait a while for the paperwork to go through,so we stayed at a friend's house until it was done.

But once I moved in,I found out we weren't able to get internet!Turns out Qwest only has so many phone lines for this area,and someone got my place for DSL in the two weeks I didn't have it.

So I ordered Earthlink,and finally got it yesterday.I used a neighbor's computer every 3 or so days to check on etsy.I felt bad about not being able to reply quicker to people's convo's,but I did the best I could. :)
I'm sooo glad to have internet again,not just for my business,but to get back in touch with many of my friends who I only communicate with online or in person.Being without a computer for a few weeks made me realize I should get a few more phone numbers!

I made quite a few earrings during that time,15 pairs,I think.As well as a few hair things.I'm planning on making lots more.I should have taken pictures several days ago,cause the weather turned nasty and is not good for taking photographs.Hopefully I'll get some sun soon so I can get pictures and list them all.

A Little Life Update

The giveaway ended a little over a week ago.Thank you to everyone who entered and gave feedback!Keep an eye open for my next,cause I'm pretty sure I'll do at least one more this year.

On a side note,I've been really stressed out cause we still haven't found a place to live.We have 20 days left to find a place and pack unless there is some way we can stay here a little longer.We found a few good places,and one was like perfect and we really thought we were going to get it,but it fell through. :/ I check craigslist like every few hours,and the newspaper weekly.I'm really not sure how all of this is going to work...*sigh*

Ok,onto something more cheerful!This weekend I went,with my mom,to a women's Aglow retreat...my first one.It was out at the Sis-Q Meadows ranch,and I went there when I was 10 for a church kids camp thing.It was sooo beautiful!The air was amazing..like mountain and beach air combined..seriously.There was a swimming hole,a river,and a pond.The cabins were really nice.So were the women there!Lots of hugs and prayers and talking,which I love.Of course. :) haha.I made some new friends there.
I tried sleeping outside for a bit the second night,since it was so pretty out,but it got too cold and around 4 am,I went back inside.But before I even tried to go to sleep,I laid down on the grass and looked at the big starry sky and watched some deer and fawns that were 15 feet away.When I finally did go to bed,under the oak tree where we had laid our cots,I saw two shooting stars. :) (We being my mom and one of the new friends).
It was nice to get out of the house and get my mind off the whole moving business.
I may post some pictures I took later when I have time...maybe share a bit more about the retreat with it,too. :)
