Whew ok I am back!

Man I am really bad about this whole keeping up with the blogosphere thing. I will get better on that, even if it is just posting 1 photo with no text...it will be something.

So what have I been up to for the month of March?

Creating like crazy, building relationships with customers, looking for bunnies, adding more birds to my 'what have seen so far in my backyard list', getting 1 year older (31! Now it hits me!), finding nice employees at the Post Office, YES they do care, finding out I am way stronger than last year and reflecting on how much my health has improved since then...those little things add up so fast, eating in more because dang it most restaurant food is pretty crappy compared to homemade (Chuy's you are still my love...come here Wild Burrito), getting 77.6MPG in my Smart Car..not a typo and I have a photo to prove it that I need to post later, realizing my Etsy.com store was crazy wonderful successful this month and I need to get my workshop more organized, oh yeah I have a workshop!!!! :DDDDDD

I missed stuff, I know it, but dang it what a fun and exciting month!

Sorry it has been a while

Sorry it has been awhile since any updates, been crazy happy busy as of late! Painting more and creating new items everyday has been a HUGE creative boost. Lot more fun then goofing off in my spare time... wait I have that?


Spring is starting to pop up in my side of the world, the jasmine vines are growing more leaves and soon my fences will be covered in white flowers that will fill the air with their seductive scent. Alan found the most interesting birds nest in the vines the other day and I need to post a photo soon...it was just so beautiful!

My little store that reaches out to the world has been doing good, just got to learn how to promote more to really get it to take off. Not sure if I want to try a craft show yet or not...I am sure I would get a lot of business there, it will take a lot of planning on my part to get it to work, maybe I will try it in 6 months when my toes are a little more wet.

Work has thankfully picked up and things are looking a lot better on that aspect, but still planning ahead just in case.

Will post a couple of photos soon of some fun things.

Love Yall who ever you are if you are anyone out there at all.

Videos from Work



OMG I totally forgot about this video for work. On a Monday, no advance notice, no warning, no makeup...and I have lost weight since then but I dig my hair. Please enjoy! I am the unmade chick in black with yellow ducky earrings. Esther is the gorgeous chick that I am talking to.

Why it keeps fading to black I have no idea...



This is our Thank You Video to our great boss Jay. I am at the 3.24 mark.

Vintage Brooch Hair Jewelry



Finally getting around to posting these in my shop, please let me introduce to you my newest product! Vintage brooch hair jewelry!

I take vintage brooches, repair them and then attach them to ribbon covered pinch alligator style hair clips which hold onto even the finest of hair (like mine).

As of now I only have the one in this entry posted in my shop, but a lot more will be available tomorrow after photoshoots for them are done.

Check them out here and please leave me a comment and tell me what you think, Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Valentines! <3 Recipe for Lemon Delicacy

Happy Valentines! Here is the recipe for Lemon Delicacy, Alan's favorite dessert. I hope you love it as much as we do! Enjoy!

I start the Lemon Delicacy (pictured at the top of this entry) with lemon cake batter baked into a jumbo muffin pan. This will yield 6 cakes. Using a box mix will have a lot of extra batter to make other cakes or some other ideas I will post in another entry.

Next cut the bottom off of the cake and place it into a small dessert bowl.

Now hollow out both the top and bottom portion of the cake halves.

And fill them with a strawberry blueberry filling. Easy to make, just use strawberry cake frosting (actually any flavor will work great!) and heat it in a glass bowl for about 45 seconds in the microwave. Make sure the frosting feels more like pudding in consistency. Then add blueberry pie filling (or any pie filling with fruit) about 3-4 tablespoons worth and blend together.

Fill the top half as well, and place onto the bottom half.

For the glazing on the cake, mix lemon juice with powdered sugar, you want the consistency to be a little more runny then cinnamon roll frosting. Use a wisk.

Now spoon the lemon glaze onto the cake, make sure you completely cover the top and have enough in the bottom of the glass bowl to form a good sized pool. The cake will absorb most of this and makes it to die for!

Sprinkle with powdered sugar and garnish with a blueberry and heart shaped toothpick. Place in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours uncovered. Serve chilled.

Now enjoy a very refreshing lemony treat! This is what I made Alan for Valentines day. <3
