Another nature adventure. This time I found the turtle instead of the rabbit. This cute little one was roaming around on the gravel in our dog run. Scout, our fearless dog, was of course afraid of the turtle....
We put the little guy on the trail to a better location as our dog run isn't really a place I'd want to reside if I was a turtle. Not sure how the little critter got in the fenced in area to start with as he was having somewhat of a difficult time getting back out of the fence.

Of course it didn't help to have Scout barking madly at him and me trying to take pics at the same time. I probably would have been rather confused on my exit strategy if all this was going on around ME! Anyway, I enjoyed the little guy. He may not be speedy, but he is very cute.

Rabbit, rabbit

Out to get the mail again and ran across this critter munching on the grass. So cute. She didn't hang around long though once she saw me and my camera.

Remember to say "rabbit, rabbit" on the first of each month for good luck and positive vibes all month long. I don't know where I first heard this or when we started it, but it's fun anyway.

Rabbit, rabbit!!

Butterfly Bush

Our neighbor has several butterfly bushes and they are awesome. I was out this morning to get the mail and saw all the butterflies having their 'breakfast'. There was one very large, beautiful golden colored butterfly-really pretty. So I rushed inside for the camera. Of course when I returned it has left. But I still had fun watching these guys and took a few shots.

These are wonderful plants. Pretty and good for the earth at the same time. Great!!

I'm glad our neighbor has provided us with such splendor to enjoy.

These lovely moisture bars are a wonderful new item from Vintagebella.etsy.com. Not only are they beautiful, but they make your skin feel fantastic. I have already ordered one for several of my friends as a gift and they love it.

I'm so happy to have these lovelies to send to people!! Yippee!!

So, I have all of this lovely glass that I use in my creations. It needs to be stored so that it is protected from scratches and chips. How to accomplish this most efficiently, using the least amount of space and of course, at the least expenditure.

Tried several different approaches, but I still wasn't happy with the setup. Then on one of my travels to Target I stumbled across these mats on sale. They are actually the mats you put in your sink to protect your dishes. When you flip them over, wha-la, they have little recessed cubes. The glass fits in them perfectly. Each little piece has it's own little residence. So happy and protected from damage. And, I can stack these on top of each other if necessary.

I already had the rolling storage bin with the drawers that come out. So I can just take out the whole drawer when I'm working and select the exact piece of glass I would like to use. My lovely glass is happy and so am I.

Doesn't take much to make me SMILE♥♥♥

I just recently joined

Etsy for Animals.

I'm happy to be part

of this team.

Of course, Scoutster

thinks it is a great

idea too.

Animals bring such

joy and love into our lives. It's terrific when we can do anything to help out those animals in need.
