I must admit, my days are mostly
pretty wonderful.
I usually get to see Claire on Saturday or Sunday
when we talk to her on FaceTime.
Jim and I bundled up and went for a walk, then we enjoyed a hot
Christmas latte at Starbucks.
I had a lot of fun sewing in my craftroom.
I re-arranged a few more Christmas items
as well as spending some time
making a few more bracelets.
I thought lots about the frightened people of France,
sending out blessing and prayers.
I've been wanting to learn how to make a
para cord bracelet for some time.
I had some pink cord, a buckle set as well as my jewelry
making tools.
A YouTube video got me started.
I had enough beads, so a few new bracelets got made as well.
Maybe I will make one for Claire
when she comes up
next week.
It has been a good start to the week.
I am back crafting around the pool.
Making bracelets and necklaces with the shells I have found.
It is windy here at the moment and that makes crocheting with
beads, shells and threads very interesting.
Walking the beach looking for shells
that will be made into a necklace doubles the joy of my day.
I make lots of bracelets.
I wear 5 or 6 at a time,
I mix and match them with my gold ones,
diamond ones as well as my
sapphire ones.
Sometimes I give them away.
They are lovely, small, portable & happy gifts.
Gifts of my heart and made by hand.
These can be worn as necklaces or bracelets.
I am always making and wearing
bracelets.
Many I crochet, lots of them I made years ago.
I wear them all the time.
Some are keepsakes,
some were gifts,
all of them treasured by me.
A day spent crafting was well spent... I ended up with
several new bracelets.
My little Boxer dog makes a great model, don't you think?
There was a lot of twirling, dancing, singing
as well as just having fun.
Auntie Ev's Lion Purse
was a big hit.
Here are a few of the fun shots that made up our
day.
