Pretty Pumpkins


Colleen and I got together and played "Martha Stewart" for a day. We covered real pumpkins with pretty paper. Then of course "BlingGirl" has to have some bling for her "Turkey Table" so I came home and glittered it up! We decided that next year we will do it on fake pumpkins instead of real ones, it was too much work to have to throw them out once the pumpkins go bad.

Logan Canyon

This last weekend I went to visit my Sister and see her beautiful new house. I had a great time, we shopped & did more shopping and I helped her hang some decorations around her house. She has gorgeous views of the mountains from almost every window in the house & a huge yard!
It rained and snowed while I was there, but they kept my room nice and toasty so I wouldn't freeze at night! From the airport you pass through Logan Canyon and that is where I took these great pictures. I took them on the way home, the colors were even more bright on my way in. It was amazing the amount they changed in just a couple days; I think the snow helped them change a little faster!

Remembering Maggie

Our Doggie Niece Maggie passed away last night.
a
In Memory of Maggie
a
We thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
with which we’ll never part.
Heaven has you in its keeping.
We have you in our heart.
a
I made this remembrance stone for my sister.

Work Bench

I made this work bench out in my garage and I made it all by myself!
It took me about a week.....I'd never attempted a project like this before so I had a few bumps along the way;
but the finished results are exactly what I was after!
And of course I couldn't just have a black and grey work area.....even though I do boy things I am still a girl....I had to add the pink
& if you look close you can see I even have pink duct tape!

Thank you!


Thank you for my presents....Betty....Colleen....Jackie!

Rose Ring

I finally made a ring that fits!



I used silver clay to make the rose and then used sterling silver to wire wrap the base of the ring. Fun, fast & easy!

More Copper

I made this copper set with copper sheet & copper wire that I got from an industrial supply company. It looks great with jeans.


Each copper component is domed to better fit around your wrist.


I used a copper etching solution to make the images raised on the copper.


The ring was just an after thought. I had extra beads and wire so I used a torch and balled the ends of 28g copper wire to use as head pins for the beads and wrapped them around the ring base that was made from 20g copper wire.
It was fun to make I love etching the sheet metal! Being self taught I'm sure I did a bunch of things wrong with the wire wrapping and etching...but it looks cute and I had fun!
