Pssstt! Is this thing even on?

necklaces

I've made several necklaces and bracelets this weekend.

I've even made a few Swarovski crystal earrings. I've posted the pics on my facebook.

And I have found TONS of awesome jewelry tutorials online that I'm going to try.

I'll post those links later.

My mother is a wonderful woman.

She's been buying me semi precious beads and the fixin's to make bracelets, necklaces and earrings to cheer me up.
I find making these things to be quite therapeutic.

Muffin bottom is going to preschool during the week and Buddy is graduating this year. The girl child, wonderful girl child, has two years before she's done. And Ava darling is starting first grade. I only wish her mother could see how she's turning into this amazing young girl.

I'm so grateful to have them all in my life.

I kinda miss being a preschool teacher sometimes. It was sooo much fun and sooo much work yet worth it all in the end.

But anyhoo...
