More jewelry

These are a few pair of the Christmas Tree Earrings I have made. I love the fun colors as well as the traditional colors. Later on I will try to show you my own Precious Gems I have used for my own jewelry. I have a Saphire and Pearl bracelet and a Ruby and Pearl bracelet. My Black Diamonds just came in and I am busy playing with them. When I decide how I want to make them up, I will take a picture and upload it.
I have another craft show this weekend. It is at the Edmond North High School. I am looking forward to it. However, it is time now for me to go home and have a cup of hot cocoa. Made the mix myself. I have made 4 batches of cocoa so far this season and it isn't even winter yet. I did manage to keep a little bit of it for myself. It is chilly out today, so I thought I would fix a cup.





This is an ornament cover I designed myself. It really was an accident, but I like it. In fact I made a red and gold one just like it last night. Not all my pictures turned out though.



This one is the ornament I started at last week's craft show. I finished it afterward. I like the colors. Again, the picture isn't the greatest.





I made serveral package earrings. I have earthy colors and Christmas Colors. Some of the bows are Sterling Silver, some are pewter.

It's a Small Small World!!!

For the second time in 4 short months I have discovered just how small this old world is. And how wonderful God is to throw surprises in our paths.

I grew up in Columbus, Ohio. I went to church at Columbus Baptist Temple. I knew almost everyone there. I still keep in touch with some of the folks even though I am in Oklahoma now. I went to college at Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Mo. Ok, to get to my point, while in OH and at college I babysat for Larry and Marsha Lindsey. They had 2 boys, David and Timothy. This was decades ago. My hubby and I have moved 23 times in 31 years to 5 states.

This last week we were attending an OBBF preachers' meeting in Edmond, OK. The first speaker was introduced as Tim Lindsey. I thought to myself..."could it be the same? He is about the right age." I paid close attention as he told about himself. "YES" it was the same Tim Lindsey. How exciting!

Now, I know, he thought I was this crazy woman. I introduced myself and told him how I knew him. Of course he wouldn't remember because he was so young the last time I saw him. Now he has a teenage daugther! I just had to give him a hug. I insisted on taking a picture too! So now I am sure he must have gone home and told his wife about this crazy pastor's wife he met.

Anyway, this is the second time God has sent someone across my path to show how small a world it is. I will tell you about the other one later. It is good too!

Last Weekend's Craft Show

This show was excellent. Holiday Bazaar by Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in Edmond, OK. They advertised very well. We had a lots of traffic. There were loads of vendors. Lots of good food! Yummy baked potato with chilli and cheese. We will be back next year!
My sales were good.

I am looking forward to another good show this weekend at the Edmond North High School.

I have a vacancy for a show the weekend before Thanksgiving. Otherwise, I am booked thru Dec. 6.

Hope to see some of you there!
