GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY!!!
I am having a Wonderful [read crazy] morning!!!  I woke up with a crappy headache,[nothing really odd about that, it happens almost every morning], and was hoping that the weather  people had been wrong about the nasty winter weather they were saying was on our way...No such luck!  My car was under 3in. of ice and snow, window all ice...LOL just so much fun at 5:30 in the am!  Now I know that 3in. is really no big deal but still...LOL
The roads are not their best right now so a 35-40 min. drive took over an hour!!!  The really bright side of this is that I got here just fine, I did not end up in a ditch like a couple other cars I saw this morning and the headache has backed off to a dull throb!!!  So it really is a GREAT DAY!!!
I know that some of my favorite people are having serious health issues right now.  They know who they are.  So right here I am going to ask for all of my friends and their friends and their friends and...[you get the idea] to Pray Without Ceasing for the comfort and healing of these wonderful people!  If you have friends that are in need as well just add them [names not needed] and they will go on my list and hopefully everybody's  list for prayers!!!  I have never met a more friendly and compassionate group of people in my life!!!
They have been there when I needed them in the last few months and now I need to be there for them!!!
Now, I really hope everybody has a wonderful [read WONDERFUL] and BLESSED day!!!

 I found my Pictures...Yeah!!!  This is the first year for me to be in Bead Soup,  I am having a blast!!! Rana Wilson, sent me a wonderful mix of sweet and savory ingredients for my soup!!!  It started with the wonderful polka dot paper, the great little note pad and then....

 The SOUP!!!

 Everything is marked, [something I forgot to do,sorry Rana].

 I had so much fun opening the bags.  I love the Sand Dollar, made by RadiantMind on etsy, it is  a great focal...asymmetric?...maybe?...hmmmmm

 I have never seen beads like these and they are just so cool!!!

 Then I have these great colors in netted beads [I think that is what they are called]

 Hand made ear wires!

A Moon Glow [my name for it's color] lampwork bead by Linda on etsy.

A wonderful copper clasp

 Love all these colors!

 MMMMM Crystals!!!

 I love bead caps... did I tell you all that yet?

 All of my pretties in one spot at the same time, I am so excited, can't wait to start!!!

Thanks you so much Rana!!!

Ok, I am slightly [read really] confused!!! I just uploaded about 36 pictures of the wonderful soup that Rana Wilson sent me and I don't know where they went!!!!!!  So until I can find them...Always remember you are always in my heart and in my prayers!! Love you all and GOD BLESS!!!

I GOT MY SOUP, I GOT MY SOUP, I GOT MY SOUP...Did I tell you I got my SOUP!!!!  Can you tell that I am just a bit EXCITED??!!! LOL  I got home and could not wait to open my package  no scissors, nothing sharp can't open package ..oh honey... can you open thin for me??? [smile smile kiss kiss]  Thank you so much!
Pretty Pretty polka dot paper!!!  Love that!!!  Then... I... get... to... the...SOUP!!!  So many pretty stones, I just love crystals and sparklies, and I got lots of those!!  I got a wonderful Sand Dollar that Rana made and all the lovely colors of sand and sea and sunset [or sunrise]!!!
I will blog more on this later and I have lots of pictures.  Those will go on in the next couple!!
Have a Blessed day!

So About a week ago today, I was given a Wonderful opportunity to make a display of our jewelry at a really special hair salon named Cilantro Hair Spa!  They are in a very Nice area of a nearby city.
My Daughter Melody get her hair styled, cut, colored etc... there.
They do an Awesome job!!

 We use louvers for a lot of our displays and it worked out perfect
here!
Some of the pieces were created for Cilantro especially and all of them were picked to work in this environment.  We get so excited when people like our designs and want to show and sell them for us!!!  This is what we want to do! This and internet sales and lots and lots of shows.

I tried to turn some of these upright and could not get it done. Blahh!!!

For those of you in this area, don't forget, Cilantro Hair Spa is really pretty close to Elkhart, Bremen, South Bend and it is in Mishawaka .
Hope you go there when you need anything done with your hair!!

 I am going back to beading so that I can get more pictures for here and my other pages.  Always remember you are all in my heart and in my prayers.  Love you all and GOD BLESS!!!!

I have been working on getting this on my blog forever.  And I have the picture but I don't think it is going to work like it is supposed to.  Sometimes I feel so stupid!!!  So I will go back to the drawing board in a little bit.  My head is threatening to fall off!!
I was not planning on blogging about this in particular today!!! LOL  You know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men!!LOL! 
I have today off so I planned to get a little more sleep, then tackle all of the things I need to get done!  Instead, I did not lay back down.  I just had my breakfast and got started.!!!I started picking out the pieces for my "Soup".  I have 2 or 3 ways to go depending on which clasp I use!  HMMMMM??!!
I have packages to get sent, those are separated and I have to get them to the post office yet today.!!
I have a fun gift to send too!
My partner for BSBP& is Rana Wilson!!! She is just great!  I checked out her blog and her studio site and she does wonderful work!!! It will be a privilege to have her work with what I send!!! I hope she loves it and that it is at least a bit of a challenge!I am going to upload some pictures now.  I will be right back...Don't miss me too much...well...maybe a little!!!LOL
