A tiny favor please......



Happy Monday! Over the weekend I found out my Butterfly Dreams bracelet was nominated for the Easter voter on Etsy! I am so excited! I'm asking ,begging and pleading {like a politician} for anyone who would like to help me, to cast a vote for my bracelet on Etsy. The top winners will have their item featured on the front page on Easter Sunday! The link is on the picture on the top of the blog on the right side. Thank you so much! Wish me luck!

A is for Antioxidants


A diet rich with Antioxidants will help fight cancer,heart disease and even signs of aging. Lately, I've been on a health kick. I guess because it's swimsuit weather around the corner and this is what I do. I've been trying to eat better and excercise daily. I'm noticing positive results! Why oh why can't I keep this eat right track on all the time? It is definately a life style choice and it is an important one! It's getting yourself started and once you get over the hump of the first week, I think it it becomes a habit to try to eat right. Just like it says on the Wasa Cracker box " Eat Well Live Better"! So I just thought if I could inspire anyone to start a new day with a new way of eating and thinking you could be on the right track with me! Enjoy!

My first bridal collection



I'm so excited to introduce my first bridal collection! I was asked by a customer who loved my new cuffs to make them for her Bridesmaids and Made of Honor. She told me her colors were eggplant and ivory. The design was totally up to me and I had fun! I just love making these cuffs! She's also giving them a set of earrings that match the vintage purple jewel on the cuff. I made the Maid of Honor's cuff with a little more pizazz! I'm so pleased that the customer loves them too! I just had to share my collection with you because they are shipping off to the bride now. Hopefully, I will have more requests in the future! I think they are a unique and fabulous gift to receive. Have a great weekend!

Bringing the luck of the Irish....

Wishing you all a Happy St. Patrick's Day! With all the luck of the Irish today! I couldn't resist the other day, I bought myself a pot of shamrocks! They are cute as can be with little white flowers. I believe it will bring luck! We shall see! Don't forget to wear your green or the leprechauns will come and be mischievous!

Make a wish



How often we wish for another chance

to make a fresh beginning.


A change to blot out our mistakes.


And change failure into winning.


And it does not take special time

to make a brand new start,


It only takes the deep desire

to try with all our heart,


To live a little better

and to always be forgiving,


To add a little sunshine

to the world in which we're living,


So never give up in despair

and think that you are through,


For there's always a tomorrow

and a chance to start anew.

Soon there will be dandelions popping up all over. {At least in my yard there will be plenty! Lol} So grab one and make that wish! Wishing you all a great day!

I'm imagining hot sun and blue waters.......



Oh my! It's been awhile since I've last blogged! Nothing too exciting going on I guess. Except for this snowfall that is accumulating on the ground! My kids went off to school this morning and now they are sending them all home 2 hours early! Wow! It still boggles my mind because it's only a couple of inches if that! I grew up in upstate N.Y {Snowbelt capital of the world}! I would trudge to school in my snow suit and moon boots in many ft. of snow! Funny to think of that now! I know GA. is not used to this kind of weather so this what always happens. The kids will love it and it is pretty ,but I'm ready for Spring!!! How about you? Bring on the pollen! Ha! Yes, I think I would take pollen over the snow. Well..I just wanted to check in and let you know I'm still here!
