So I already shared what it was like attending the conference for me – now I am going to share what I learned. And let me tell you, it was a whole bunch. I was so thankful to Traci from Beneath My Heart.  She stressed during the closing session that we should not go home [...]

Haven20121.jpg

Okay, so I know there are a whole lot of really great recaps out there from Haven already – but I felt like I needed to put in my two cents as well! Lots of the ladies write their posts so fast – I always “write” in my head for a bit first. My hope [...]

I have wanted a windmill for some time now.  One of those items I always had hoped to find.  I even tried to buy one out of someone’s yard once. And then, someone suggested to look of all places – Amazon.com – and I did. And it was reasonably priced and shipping was free. And [...]

It is amazing that it is only a few days away, but on Wednesday, I am heading out of town to go to the Haven Conference. I don’t think I have ever been a maven before, but we will go with it. This will be my first blogging conference.  I have been to plenty before [...]

It’s official – I’m old. Last weekend I thought I was all fancy and all swinging at the park with my daughter – aiming for the trees.. Fun stuff right?  I thought so. And then it was over. Instantly – I was sick – motion sick – ugh, get me off! Had to sit on [...]

1 Minute Necklace & a Mini Fairy Garden

I made a leather bracelet for a friend the other day – and no, I wasn’t smart enough to take a picture of it before I gave it to her. But the materials were sitting on my desk since then and the other night I made a one minute necklace. The circle is a vintage [...]
