Wow... I have had a hard time keeping up with my blog lately. I have been working more in the day so not as much time for extra things lately. We have a new grandson - Derek Johnathon - he is so cute and itty bitty. There are a few pictures here of him. I have been on a crocheting and knitting kick lately. Have made a bunch of baby hats that I will be listing. They are so much fun to make and quick. I like quick!!! Lots of new beads too. :) Have a great day! Pam This is a Bumbles band for a watch. I made it for a friend who already has the watch face so she will just hook the band to it with the lobster clasps. They are a big Utah thing. I think they are kinda cool. Might have to make a few more. :) I knit the hat and cocoon for Derek. We will probably use it to get his picture made in a month or so. Another popular item selling lately. If you want one just let me know. I got a new bead press from cgbeads. It is a disc shape. I think they are kinda pretty. Haven't had much time to play with it yet tho. :( Rylee Jade Kieran loves the John Deere - the battery was dead but he didn't care!
Hi... I spent a good portion of my weekend working on a custom order for an etsy customer and wanted to share them with you. Would I do it again? Well I would for the fact that I learned a lot about pink and orange glass and how it looks together and I worked on my flowers which I really like to do. I wouldn't do it for as cheap as I did tho. :) So if you want a custom set of flower beads I will be charging just "a little bit" more for them. :) Here are the pictures and let me know if you want some of your own.
My hubby is employee of the month where he works and I am soooo proud of him. Here is what they had to say-
Please join me in congratulating Dale Dansie on his nomination for employee of the month. Dale has been a great asset to the Sandy Clinic in many ways. One example of this is his willingness to float and adapt to any department that he is needed. He is efficient and learns quickly, and gives it 100% effort. Dr. Stolman had the following to say about Dale's talents and abilities: Dale is a model M.A. and I would recommend that any given student M.A. be assigned to follow him for a week. He is a quick study and picks up new office proceedings with lightning speed, which I am sure is a reflection of his sharp intellect. He is also upbeat, and ready to laugh and help our patients to laugh. Dale is reliable to get office chores accomplished on time and will always surprise you with some more efficient way to run things. He has an excellent sense of professionalism. As an example of these things, he rewrote and restyled many of our consent forms and handouts so that they looked more professional, and reorganized our mole maps so they are more concise. All of these things have helped our office be more efficient and professional.
I have been trying to make more bead sets and not so many of the florals - altho they are soooo much fun to make. I have been adding new sets this week to my etsy shop. Go take a look if you get a chance. :) Thanks
I have been having a lot of fun lately knitting and crocheting bath items. It is something I do while watching tv etc. I have crocheted all my life and recently re-started knitting. I was doing a lot of socks and decided I needed to branch out into different things. I am getting too many socks! LOL but is that even possible? So here are some pictures of what I have made. The "cotton balls" are really nice to have. I use them all the time and they wear really well and wash up great. The wash cloths are terrific in the kitchen or the bath. They would also be good for babies. The bath puffs are just fun to make - so there you go. Have a great day! Pam Oh and I forgot to say you can find them here!
