Something New To Explore...

These are my newest project...I'm exploring deeper into doodles. Quite sometime ago I was having fun with doodles. I now have found two amazing books to help me.  Zenspirations Letters and Patterning. and Zenspirations Dangle Designs. Joanne Fink is the author of both. She makes the instructions so very easy. Step by step to make your own versions. If you like to doodle look into these books. You can use a variety of tools. Markers, colored pencils, ink, and watercolors.

New...

Introducing two new bracelets located in my ETSY shop. Please take a look around.

These are made out of buttons. They are very lightweight.

 

 

 

 

 And easy to wear.

 

A Touch of Spring

Cancun 2013

Our wonderful vacation, my daughter and I shared.

 

 

Cancun, Mexico

 

 We didn't stay in the hotel itself...we had our own villa.

 Drinks at 9:30 a.m.

 Ocean views

 

 Awesome food, and as much as you want to eat.

 Lizards the size of small dogs. You see more of these than the little ones.

 An  ancient observatory.

 One of the seven wonders of the world, totally amazing to see up close.

 Chichen Itza

Please learn about this place on line and it's incredible history.

 Amazing carvings.

 A sink hole where anyone can swim. Not far from Chechen Itza. No one knows how deep it is.

 Beautiful gardens everywhere.

 More lizards the size of small dogs.

An end to an amazing vacation

 You know that the weather is getting warmer when...

 Your favorite duck comes back to your yard and...

 struts his stuff on your back deck and sometimes swims in the pool.

This duck has come back every Spring for the last three years.

A Little Sparkle...

 

 

I was recently visiting a older cousin in an assisted living program. She is 92. We talked for a while and she mentioned that she remembered that I liked her sparkly jewelry. She is known for her jewelry. She said that she had some that she no longer needed or wanted.

 

 

 She handed me a small box of things, told me not to open it there so I said I wouldn't.

 We visited for a little while longer and then it was dinner time for her. I wheeled her down to the dinning room and I said my good byes and left. It seemed  that it took me forever to get home but I made it.

 This is what I received.

 Necklace, earrings and bracelet.
