Peggy's Halloween Shrine is HERE!

A few weeks ago, I was very lucky to win a great Halloween Shrine from Peggy's Mixed Up Art -- http://wwwpeggysamusement.blogspot.com/2009/10/shrine-giveaway-to-celebrate.html and

http://wwwpeggysamusement.blogspot.com/

It arrived today, and I LOVE it! It's sitting in my living room right now, and it will be there year round. It's a great work of art and deserves being on display at all times.

My daughters both want it, so I have to keep an eye on it!

Go to Peggy's blog and see all the great creations she displays--her's and others!

Thanks again, so much, Peggy!

Using some of my REAL cigarboxbeads!

I've been meaning to do this for a long time, and just finished one of my goals--the use some of the vintage beads and goodies that are in one of the vintage cigarboxes i bought so very long ago--there are many more beads in the boxes- i'll never use them all--( i've used some in an amulet bag i made my sister in law many years ago ( which she framed!)

So---here are a few more: Fandango on the Beadroom Floor ( i've come to the conclusion that these beads were 'sweepings' from a beadroom somewhere!)

my new addiction!

see those twinchies? well, i've veered off a bit from beadweaving to alteredart--and i found this great blog---- http://aileensmusings.blogspot.com/ by Aileen, and she's giving away some great goodies for altered art---maybe i'll be lucky! ( it's 'Fall' and not Halloween, so that's good! ;>) )

my newest---and last twinchie!

'cause they're getting addictive---;>) ---plus, i DO have other things i need to do! '>)
