FACES OF GLASS...

So I had this "light bulb" moment and thought of gathering a treasury of some my Etsy glass buddies and their faces...It's so cool to get to SEE some of the people I call my friends...This was a fun idea and some of my FaceBook buddies jumped on the bandwagon...I'm going to try to make this a habit and post more FACES OF GLASS in the near future...Enjoy!...

Doing the RELIST Dance...

So it seems that some items just never sell...Lots of lookers and hearts...Maybe everyone just enjoys admiring such lovelies...It's like going to the Park or a Craft Show and looking at all of the wonderful people, different kinds of people there are in the world, your community or even your grocery store...Where am I going with this???...Not sure, other than showing you my RELIST for today...A beautiful pair...One of my favs...

What's Up Wednesday...

I have been using my creative skills with video lately...My youngest has me producing these cute little lego videos for him...I've even posted several on YouTube...I can't believe how many views his little lego videos are getting...So here's what I decided to do...I made a little advertisement, if you may, for my Etsy Shop, DorsetHillBeads...Check it out...



If you like what you see I am considering offering my production talents to you...Contact me for details if you are interested...

Finding A New Home...

Well, here we are, into the Spring season...The birds singing, animals running around, grass growing, flowers budding and blooming and the earth is alive with movement and song...So my young son decided to paint a beautiful bird house so one of our frequent visitors can make a new home...

We don't know who is residing in this lovely house but we do know it is now a home...We hope to capture a snapshot soon...

OH THE LIFE OF LEISURE...

I just had to share...Bean relaxing while we are working hard in the yard...
