I can't help but start to think about the holidays and gifts.  I am gearing up for 3 shows and busy making goodies to stock Etsy.  This year shipping will be free and I can wrap up  that special piece for free if requested.  Early...I know :) but fun to get the preps in. 
These earrings are unique and fun. The cream colored beads are petite and compliment the layered, encased beads that I made with warm colors. Happy weekend to all!

 Happy Sunday!  I was at the torch yesterday and got these goodies from the kiln early this morning. I have had this turquoise leather that I have been so excited to use.  The swirls of the glass in these beads matched the leather and I just had to get my hands on them right away. 

Celebrating my Mom's Birthday today.  I plan to cook up a whirlwind and celebrate with her today. I wouldn't be where I am without her....beyond the literal sense of that as well.  So pulling out the passed down recipes and a bit of wine to celebrate...yahoooo!  I am going to hope hope hope the Bills win as well..maybe they will work extra hard for a home win considering she has been a fan since she was 7.. Home game!

 Happy Weekend once again! I"m not sure what happens during the week...its Sunday night and then Friday afternoon in one Poof! But yahoooo for the weekends when I can get my hands busy with fun.  Fires in the fireplace, crunchy leaves, an afternoon movie, the newspaper and coffee and plenty of play...oh how I love the weekend.  I would love to learn how to insert more of that into the busy week...I'm going to work on that:) I hope all is going well with creating and being inspired out there.  UPCOMING EVENTS...Whisker Fest in East Aurora...great cause and great people and cats too:)

 

These beautifully colored leathers with cream colored glass and antiqued copper findings.... It is a simple piece but with whimsy and a bit of style. 

 

 

Gorgeous fall is here!  This weekend is a little rainy and cold but it has not stopped me from really enjoying the colors.  Today was the annual journey to pick out the pumpkins and take part in Pumpkinville fun. 
I am going to put some of the colors I saw today into action in glass and leather this week.  I hope everyone near and far is enjoying this time of year!  Happy Creating:)
