I'm really excited about my new line of pendants. I have the privilege of working with the artwork of Marisa Hopkins at www.ElegantSnobbery.etsy.com

Her drawings are lovely, fun, colorful and just terrific!! So I am enjoying the opportunity to turn some of them into pendants.

Scoutster likes them as well.....although she thinks Marisa should draw a round Jack Russell-Chihuahua mix that looks like her. Now that would be something indeed!!

So relaxed....

So, I'm working away on my pendants and this is what Scoutster, my wonderful companion has to add to the endeavors of the day. But she gives me lots of snores to cheer me on in my work. Gotta love her. She knows how to relax!!

It's the birthday celebration for FAM. Come join in the celebration. Visit our shops and you can enter in the drawing to win some terrific prizes--great stuff by Fabulous Artistic Moms♥♥

Hope everyone is having a Valentine's day full of smiles and love!!

Here's some great quotes to celebrate Valentine's day:

"In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love." Marc Chagall

"Love sought is good, but given unsought is better" William Shakespeare

"The essence of love is kindness" Robert Louis Stevenson

"If you judge people, you have no time to love them." Mother Teresa

O.K. ...enough already.....Happy Day♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

EMBRACE OUR 'BAD HAIR DAYS'

So, I've decided that bad hair days aren't all that bad....as a matter of fact, I think we should just relish these days. As a breast cancer survivor, I have been through the many stages of hair and hairlessness.

First I got a 'buzz cut' since I knew my hair was going to fall out. That was an interesting look and everyone wanted to rub my prickly head. Fun!!

After chemo started I lost all my hair....and I do mean ALL my hair. Being bald wasn't really so bad, except my head got cold. The bald head didn't LOOK so bad either...and I got to wear lots of cool scarfs and hats.

When my hair began to come back in, it came back wavy-I've always had extremely straight hair. This was REALLY fun. It lost the waves as it got longer, but I enjoyed it while it lasted.

So, now, I have a short hair style-easy to manage. And there are the days when I wake up and my hair looks really odd, sticking up in all the wrong places. I often chuckle at the sight, and try to 'settle' it down to some type of order. It has a mind of it's own and I'm glad it does!!! I'm glad that it is there to keep my little head warm and to entertain me from time to time.

Bad hair days aren't so bad, after all......♥♥♥
