Whew!  What a day!  Oldest daughter graduated from college today, youngest daughter had her prom!  Lots of traveling, pictures, craziness.  I even chaperoned the prom, much to daughter's dismay.  No, she was cool with it, but kept her distance most of the night.  Heck, I couldn't even get into the center of the dance floor anyway!

Running a special.  Buy three scrabble tile pendants from my Etsy shop, and get one free.  Here's how it works..... 

Go to Etsy, or here on my website,  purchase three scrabble pendants, and then send me an e-mail or a convo from Etsy, and tell me which pendant you want free from this page (click on it to see what you get to choose from, or click on the link Scrabble Tile Pendants from the left column on this page).  Make sure you put the number of the pendant you want, and if it's available, it's yours.  Better send your number 1, 2 and 3 choice, just in case.

Here's a sample of the pendants.  They are all one of a kind, with a handpainted watercolor adhered to a scrabble tile, then made into a pendant.  Very cool and hip!

The end of the school year is fast approaching.  My daughter will be graduating, and soon, we will become official empty nesters.  The thought just makes me sad.  She's busy with Prom plans, graduation plans, open house plans, and we still need to find a college!  YIKES!  

I've been making a few beads lately and put some new ones up on Etsy.  Here they are, and a couple of them are not for sale yet, but soon.  The cow was a special order, and this one cracked right above his front legs.  The new ones are coming, and I hope to get them up tomorrow night.  They ARE adorable if I do say so myself.

Well, some of these didn't last long, but I thought I'd show you anyway.  I had a special request for a skunk bead, and it turned out adorable.  Here's a couple more too.  Too cute!

Whew!  What a week.  Full of meetings, and responsibilities.  I came home tonight and took a nap!

My students are working on some stained glass projects at work, and I took the opportunity to finish some pendants I did a few years back that had just been sitting, waiting for the final touches.  I've put them in my Etsy Shop, so go take a look, or send me an e-mail if you're interested in buying one.

More large hole beads and one set of beads out of the kiln today, and some of them just make me laugh!  Here they are and fortunately for me, some already sold on Etsy, but watch for more.  I have all kinds of ideas for these little critters.
