The Last Gift... and What I've Been Working On...

As any of you who caught my last post know, I was totally shocked and excited to find that I was one of the winners of the Artisan Group Giveaway.  If you missed my last post, please check it out :)  I met some amazing artisans!  The last of my goodies hadn't arrived when I wrote the post, but it arrived a couple of days later and oh!  It is so wonderful!  It is a positively stunning leather wrap bracelet by Julicia of Julicia's Creations!  I am in love :)  She makes them custom and it fits so so perfectly!  My kids are totally thrilled that I get to wear their names around for everyone to see LOL.

Isn't it fabulous?  I am so excited :)  So, check out the wonderful Julicia!  Here are her links:

Now, what have I been up to?  Trying to create a lot more beautiful pieces to go up into the store in preparation for the coming holidays!  That's right, they are cooooooooming!  I LOVE Christmas, so I am excited!  I made I think it was six? Pieces this last weekend? I was hoping to make more, but it was a bit nutty in my house.  (I blame the littles... always their fault ;) )  Here are the new pretties I put up this morning, featuring... Fallen Angel Brass!  Are you shocked? I'm sure you are *wink*.  The first up is my personal favorite earrings ever I think...  I call them "Gypsy Soul"

Next up are two winter-y pieces I am dubbing the Snow Princess collection :)  I love snowflakes, I think they are just amazing and beautiful:

And the wrap that features the most stunning silk ribbon from Mudhound Studios on Etsy... maybe my favorite ribbon ever!

What do you guys think?  I am pretty pleased :)  I love all the sparkle!  These three are up in the shop now!  Click on the pics to go see the listing with even more fabulous pics.  :D  I'll have even more fun and fabulous things up later this week!  I have another set of sparkly earrings and a new lariat ready to be photographed!

My beautiful eldest daughter just went on her very first field trip on Friday (my husband got to go!) they went to the pumpkin patch :)  They had an absolutely amazing time and she brought home a very cute pumpkin lol.  I'm hoping we'll be able to take the others to pick out pumpkins sometime this week!  (before Halloween would be optimal LOL)  What are you all up to this week?  Anything fun?  Hope it is a fantastic one!
