Valentine Cone Victorian

Valentine Cone I made! This is a purchased cone which I have embellished with paper, lace, ribbons,

ball fringe, pearls and pretty pink roses. The cone measures 7". The total measurement with ribbons

etc. is about 16". Hang on a door or cabinet knob. Add this to your Valentine decorations or

display year round! Way too pretty to hide!  I will add this to  my etsy store. Come visit me.

Smiles and Blessings,

Nancy

Back Again!

Hi y'all,  am back again! Sorry I have missed a couple days of posting, but hit a bump in the road and I got off track, so to speak. But will do better now. Weather here was yucky over the week end, but we were in need of some rain, so that was good. It is still coolish, but not cold. I am grateful for that, as I am a Floridian at heart and warm weather is my thing....beaches, gulf, palm trees, blue skies etc!!!! Come back and see me soon.

Smiles and Blessings,

Nancy

Stash Boxes

Look what I found! Three old metal cash boxes! They are beat up and there are no keys, but that doesn't matter!
These will make great "stash" boxes!
Can't wait to fill these up.
I love them!

Cold weather and Hot Soup!

Just had to mention the cold weather that is on it's way into the deep south...FLORIDA!!

Yesterday I made a BIG pot of vegetable soup in anticipation of the cold! It is a BIG pot, so I may be eating this for the next week!  I will be creating some art and eating soup this week end.  Fun, Fun!

Hope you all stay warm and cozy and if you are out...drive carefully.

Smiles and Blessings,

Nancy

Freezing Florida

I just have to mention, that as a Floridian, this weather is way to cold for me! I know! I know! It is affecting the whole country, but the deep south?!!!  The Land of Sunshine is under artic air blast. Will spring be far

behind? Can't wait for warm weather. I live in orange groves, and the pumps are running water for a week now all night long to save the trees. This is serious.

I hope you are all keeping warm! Those of you who not only are dealing with the cold, but also with snow, sleet, and freezing rain, stay inside with the heat on! Get busy creating and all that energy will help to keep you warm and the results will make you happy and warm inside.

Till next time friends,

Smiles and Blessings,

Nancy
