Need Some Fairy Magic?

There are some days that a little magic would be helpful. This is Emily the Fairy and she likes to help around the house. Little bits of fairy magic here and there to make your days run smoother. You know the routine...lost the car keys and thinking, "Oh where did I put them?" and then voila, the answer pops into your head almost magically. Or how about the time all your socks actually matched when pulled from the dryer?

That's all for now. Just think good thoughts and believe.

It's Not Easy Being Green

It's not easy being green. This is Ferguson who is currently living in my etsy shop. He's a happy sort who likes beverages made out of "hops".

I'll be back again tomorrow!

Quick As A Bunny

I need to be "Quick as a Bunny" with this post, because it's time to cook dinner. But before I do, I wanted you to meet Jack. He's the Jack Rabbit that I made just the other evening, and I think he's rather cute. He sold before I posted him, so I'll be making more one of these days...or nights. I just wanted to show him to you, because I was pleased with his cute little face.

Thanks for looking,
Marcy

Peach Connoisseur

You're probably expecting that these gorgeous peaches are from Georgia as that's where I live. Nope. But I'd put these peaches up against ANY anywhere in the world. These are Western Slope Peaches from Colorado, (where I used to live). I think these are the most delicious of any I've ever tasted. And I love peaches. These are just some that I froze for future family needs. One of our friends sent us a box of them, and I spent a good part of yesterday "putting them up".

As I know that this is more of a glass and bead blog, I'll stop now. Tomorrow I promise you a photo of a darling rabbit I made last night. But tonight, I'll be savoring a rum and peach drink as I write out my glass list for tomorrow.

Camellia Rose the Southern Belle Tropical Fish

Oh Camellia Rose is a Southern Belle. She has been in fish beauty contests since she was just a little bitty thing and has bought new Maybelline waterproof mascara (you know, the one in the bright pink container) every three months religiously. She loves grits- butter, salt and pepper and of course her mama's fresh biscuits with honey.

We won't discuss her over-use of blush. Suffice it to say, it's hard to break old habits from the days of her beauty pageants. Luckily for us, her winners' crowns and trophies are in a locked case.

And just for the record, this is a fish story.

Airport Snafu and Mermaids

I wish there was a great tie in to both topics, but honestly they're quite separate. I had a request to do some younger girl mermaids. They make sweet necklaces for daughters, or I have cute little stands that I make for them. They're adorable on a dresser or favorite shelf.

On a totally unrelated note, we just got back from the airport. My son was due in at 5:30pm, and then his flight was cancelled. Then he almost made it on another flight, but standby was full. So he was due in at 8:40pm and I waited a long time at the airport in the middle of a rip roarer storm. Needless to say, he called from Birmingham, AL where they were refueling. Then when they finally made it back to Atlanta, close to midnight, they had to sit on the tarmac because all the gates were full. Then of course the train between concourses was shut down and the mass transit system train to burbs was shut down for the night. He finally came out from baggage claim at 2 am and said that he'd deal with his lost luggage later today. So of course he hadn't eaten and the only place open nearby was Waffle House. It's 5 am and we're finally home and going to catch some shut eye. So if you happen to email me today and I don't respond right away, please assume that I'm catching up on a little bit of much needed sleep. However, I did get a lot of my paperback read tonight, which was nice.

Good night everyone.

Doggy Faces

I'm adding more puppy faces to my shop now. There's been a lot of postive comments from folks, and so now I'm making these and other styles that will be listed periodically. If you have a great photo of your dog, that you think I should try, please email it to me so I can try it. This is another fun new challenge and one that I think could make great Christmas presents for friends and family.

Off to torch for awhile...until it hits that 99 degrees that's been forecasted.

take care,
Marcy
