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!

Oh..The beauty of the bust...





















This bust is such an inspiration to me! I bought her a couple of years ago to put in my studio. She's painted and decorated with painted tin flowers. I really can't use her for my displays because she is a bit busy but she is a beauty! I haven't named her yet...hmm? Then there is my home made bust that I use for my diplays...She is starting to come a part a bit and tear but I love her anyways. I created her when I first started making necklaces and that was about 2 1/2 years ago. I see so many that I love and are beautiful dressed up or down.


The beauty of the bust is in the eye of the beholder! Enjoy and I wish you all a great weekend! Thank you for all the well wishes for my hubby! He's doing fine now. We go to the cardioligist next week for a follow up.

The Heart



Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely. ~ The Land Before Time


We had a scare last Wednesday night. My husband had a small heart attack. It happened out of the blue. No warnings or past history. He's doing well now. He's back to work. All the tests taken showed no blockages. It is definately a life changing moment, A real eye opener about life! We were lucky and given another chance! I love the above quote. It can be read in so many ways.

For the love of the glass bottle....

" American love- like coke in green glass bottles they don't make it anymore"

~Alan Moore



I have a passion for old glass bottles! I just love them...all kinds ! I used to be hooked on the blue bottles and I would collect them ,but then I got over the blue and went on to green and clear. They are just so interesting and give alot of charm when grouped together. I can't wait to start the yard sales in the Spring! I'm actually trying to de-clutter..that was my New Year's resolution...but my thought is get rid of the old and bring in some new old stuff. Ha! It's a pretty day today. Hope it's a pretty day where you are! Enjoy!

The path we take...

" As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives"
~Henry David Thoreau
Happy thoughts are the way to go! Wishing you all a great weekend!
