My Library Station

My computer desk!

Computer and a few books!

This is where I wrap the book jackets!

Thought I would show you a small slice of my world at work in our County Library.
These are my work stations. I open boxes of new books, they go out for cataloging
and they come back to me for spine labels and covers. I handle every new book that
comes to us....I see everything new. James Patterson must write a new book every week!
We have a great library!
If there is a library in your town, city or county you should make it a point to visit!
There is so much material available to you! You can check out books, audio books,
CD's, DVD's, and look up all kinds of info on the internet. A children's section will
provide your kids with much enjoyment!

Go Visit Your Library and do yourself a favor!

Have a wonderful day, Friends.

Smiles and Blessings,
Nancy

HAPPY FALL

Happy Fall, Y'all!

Today is the first day of Fall!

Wearing jeans today!  Even tho' the temp will reach 90 degrees today.

In Central Florida we don't see much Fall color....there are a few trees whose

leaves do change...but mostly we're green and brown! Orange/citrus trees stay green!

So to all you friends who live North of Central Florida enjoy the changing colors.

"Junk Drawer Jewelry"

Have been busy creating my fun "junk drawer jewelry."

I was given an old tobacco can full of vintage and antique keys a few years ago.

Now I'm finally getting to create something fun with them.

Faith key necklace.  This is an antique key to which I added the other embellishments.

There's a small cross, the word Faith, & two charms of red glass beads.

It is strung on a black cord.

This is for sale in my nan-c-arts shoppe.

You can reach it from my blog.

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a great day.

Smiles and Blessings,

Nancy

Making Junk Jewelry with "stuff."

Junk jewelry!  I know you all have heard of this!  Look around the house...
empty stuff out of the junk drawers that is small enough to fit on a piece of jewelry.
This includes old keys, nuts, lost & found items, charms, game pieces, broken
jewelry, odd earrings and whatever strikes your fancy!  This is so much fun.

This is my work space! Today it is the dining room table!
Who knows where it will be tomorrow.
It looks like a disaster and I guess you could say it is, but this way
I have everything in front of me, and I can grab whatever strikes me!

More jewelry stuff!

Check out my etsy store where I will be adding some of my jewelry.
Thanks for visiting!
Have a great day, Friends, and come back to visit.

Smiles and Blessings,
Nancy
