Hot, Cold, Hot, Cold

MAKE UP YOUR MIND WEATHER!!!

So I go to sleep, its 72 degrees, I wake up, I'm FREEZING!  From 72 to 45 in a night... welcome to the wonderful world of southern living.  But, I gotta say, its better than snow... its purty, but, its cold, I need time to acclimate!  And that's why lots of people down here are sick. Other than we've got to go to work instead of staying home and taking care of ourselves and keeping our disease to ourselves.  Luckily, last week, I was able to do just that.  Unfortunately I was sick but, I was able to stay in bed and be funky and pukey all by my lonesome and not make others feel as rotten as I did.  One week later and a bottle of liquid Echinacea, I'm feeling like my old crazy, non-stop, hyper-driven self!  Woohoo!  So, I created a few pretties today while I was enjoying not having to wipe my eyes and nose every 5 minutes.

This was one of my new leather creations, I used some distressing ink on the leather that I purchased from Michaels.  I bought this in smaller pieces because I'm just feeling the waters on these.  I did make 2 of these about a month ago and I sold them in a matter of minutes... they flew off of my tables and one of the customers who bought one came back for the other, which I'd already sold.  So I decided to make some more.  Hopefully they go as fast as the others! 

I'd also made a Nostalgia bracelet made with resin and prints I'd found of Iconic places we don't have and miss dearly here in New Orleans anymore. I used to love McKensies Buttermilk drops when I was a kid!!

Then I made this bracelet today from some cool Tim Holtz material and some of my own images here in good ole NOLA.

That's all I've got for today... Oh yeah!  Most importantly, my lil sweets Harmony learned how to ride her bike for the first time with no training wheels today!!  Check her out, she was soooo proud and excited! That's ma girl!!! Talk to "Ya'll" laterer!
