I hope everybody had a really BLESSED Thanksgiving!!!  I did!  Too much of every kind of food and just the best time with my family!!! 

I have really been stumped with how to allow followers on my blog and some other issues, but I think I have it working now!  Please let me know what you think! 

Did everybody get their Christmas shopping done?  I have not even started!!!  I am working on a bracelet for  a challenge I entered, the reveal is on Nov. 30th!!!  It is really exciting for me to try these new things!!!

I am off to do more beading!

Always remember, you are always in my heart and in my prayers!!! Love you all and GOD BLESS!!!

Hi Friends!
So everybody made it thru this weekend just fine!  We had a wonderful time at all of our Shows.  My husband covered for us at the Floral Shop Open House and did fine!  We finished that show out today and everybody said that he did a great job and they liked him!  I like him too!!!
We are talking about what we need to do to up our game for the next year!  We are going to have a meeting on that in a couple of weeks!  I will let everyone know where we are.  i would love to hear what you think!! 

If I don't talk you before...HAVE A GREAT AND BLESSED THANKSGIVING!!!

Hi, everybody!  I am writing this just to say THANK YOU to all the wonderful people I have met in the last few weeks.
It all started when the new Bead Soup Book, By Lori McDaniel Anderson, came out.  I read a blurb on it and I was like..WOW, that sounds like so much fun!!!  I asked if I could join and I was just a little too late, Drat!!!  In the mean time I started following Lori on her blog, I started this blog, [with Lori's help], met some amazing women and I don't think my life will ever be the same.  And I am OK with that!!!LOL
This weekend I will be doing 3 [yes I said 3] Craft shows all in 3 days!!!???  What was I thinking?  I don't know, I will let you know when we are done!  I will either be a hero or shot at dawn[ well maybe not shot...LOL]
My daughter and I usually do the shows together.  Now, however, we are getting a lot of invitations to different shows and I really did not want to tell any local show no if I did not have to!  The solution?
I am setting up the Friday Library show on Thursday at 6. On Friday at 12 pm.,  I am setting up the Saturday show at Sautter's Floral and gift shop. Then I am going to work the Library show from 3-8. And Friday night while I am at the Library show my daughter and my sweet hubby will be setting up our regular [late November] show.  That one is at a local school and has about 180 vendors.
The Friday night show and the Saturday and Sunday at the Floral shop are new, so we will see what we can do with those.
My biggest concern is having enough stock to make a good showing at all three of the shows!!!
We have a fun and inventive set up [you can see it on pinterest at pinterest.com/willowdragon under the board named Stone Soup].  I will try to take pictures of all 3 venues this weekend and get them on here early next week.
If anyone wants to pray for us to have successful shows and to have fun I will take it all and be very grateful!!!

Always remember you are all in my heart and in my prayers!! Love you all and GOD BLESS!!!
