More of my *cellini addiction*! ;>)

I started another cellini spiral bangle--my 3rd--and I'm already thinking of colors for another!

I have the first 2 up on etsy- lots of lookers, but no buyers! I know- they're pricey--but they take f o r e v e r and use a lot of beads!

Here is the newest--light pastels- almost like Easter Egg colors!

Beader Block

After having beader's block AGAIN! - I've finally finished a few goodies that were just sitting there- looking at me- making me feel guilty!

I kind of became addicted to making Cellini Spiral Bangles - made 2 and collecting colors for another---I've not priced them as high as other I've seen on etsy--but it's not for the lack of work and beads! They take f o r e v e r- but fun ( when I'm in the mood!)

The first one I made was the M&M Carnival Colored one and the one I just finished is the Strawberry Swirl!

( they're on http://cigarboxbeads.etsy.com if you want to see them all in their glory!)

Weird Wednesday ;>)

A while back, I posted some pictures of my 'museum of the odd'---my pixies have 'asked' me to publicize them again! ;>)

I have SO much weird stuff---so much---so I thought I'd have a Weird Wednesday here on my blog with my weird $%#^ !

Here are just a few --- of my weird pixies--i've started selling them on etsy, but these---I have a hard time letting go of!

yeah- I know- I'm a pixie-hoarder! heh heh

Promo Frenzians Rock!

*My* new etsy team- Promo Frenzy is made up of total energizer bunnies~not only do they create as great artisans, they promote teammates, make beautiful treasuries, and are wonderful, helpful teammies!

The Frenzian I consider my mentor is CreativityHappens--she helped me along with my first treasury and checks in with me...these are some of her goodies --i love the monsters - my daughter made me some of these many years ago and they're staring at me right now!

http://creativityhappens.etsy.com is where this artisan resides!

Happy Sunday all---

Hope everyone is enjoying the Prez Day weekend! I've been working around, trying to organize, throw away, clean---yadda--but today, the whirlwindgirl, Ryan was over---check out the pictured of mam mam's living room/Ryan's playroom!

NEWS NEWS BREAKING NEWS! ;>)

Since my last foray here- etsy has changed ( i have lots of goodies for sale in 4 different shops on etsy.com --ack! ;>) ) --the forums, teams and other 'etsy-procedures' have changed!

I belong to the CCCOE Team - California Crafters ---and my team members are fantastic--etsyvintage team, hoardersuniteteam,wwwg team,yadda yadda---but - now, i've joined another team- Promotional Frenzy---and these etsians are wonderful and work so hard for not only their own shops, but others in the team!

hiya--and happy new year! sale and see the girlies!

I'm not 'recovered' from the *holidays*, getting ready---then getting over it---ey yi yi!

Grandaughter Ryan has been 'visiting' me and she LOVES to redecorate our house! She walks in the house, looks around, picks up things ( and I have a lot of things to pick up! ) looks around--gives it back to me---or, puts it somewhere else, or walks on to something else and throws the first thing over her shoulder! Pretty hilarious--and she LOVES stickers---her first word, after mama is *'ticker*, so I find those all over, too.

I don't remember the twinnies - or their mommies doing these things--but then again- I don't remember much of anything at this point in my life, so.........;>)

Right now, I'm having a sale ( big, for me!) on http://cigarboxbeads.etsy.com -buy one beadwoven or beady item and the second is half price---it lasts till Monday evening--lots of lookers so far, but no buyers! ;>( I enjoyed making all of the goodies, so I guess that will have to keep me happy!

I'm putting up the picture that was our Holiday card- daughters took the kiddies to the Seal Beach Pier and had their pictures taken--my gift was a gorgeous picture of all the 'Goodman Girls' --made me cry! ;>)

I love this one, too - baby Ryan doesn't look too sure about where she is and what's going on!
