Good Wednesday morning!  I seem to be getting back in the groove slowly but surely.   The decorations are put away, the studio is back in order and Mallory leaves tomorrow for school.  The house will soon be all mine again!

Since it’s Wednesday . . . What’s on Your Work Desk?  Mine?  I was a busy girl yesterday finishing up CHA projects.  They will be out the door today only to be seen by me again when I visit the Spellbinders booth . . . and if I must say so . . . excellent projects.  I’m very excited about them!

One thing you must see is one of my new toys.

A spice spinner from Pampered Chef.  I found that medicine bottles from Hospice fit perfectly and they are great to hold all those little embellishments.  I cut down the packaging from the embellishment and tape it right to the bottle!

My ever present coffee cup and now my nicotine replacement therapy.  Those blurry things?  Projects for CHA that you’ll see more of in the upcoming weeks.  Stay tuned . . . the Spellbinders Blog Hop is fast approaching.  My day is January 13th.

Okay I must confess.  I don’t like a bunch of stuff piled on my work space.  I must clean it as I go along and after every project completed everything is put away and I start over.  Things I’ve used and need to keep track of are set to the side so I remember to include the product (like paper and dies).  See my inks are stacked off to the right . . . I was done with them for this project.  At this point I was actually in the process of getting my embellishments together for the finishing touches.

Oh my BADness, I almost forgot about the winner of the Crafts ‘n Things issue!  I loved reading all your comments and stories.  Quite frankly some of them brought me to tears as I was reading (that’s a hard thing to do) and I had to email a number of you as the comments came in I was so moved.  I don’t want to keep you waiting any longer . . ..

QUEEN MARY please send me your snail mail address.  You can email me at [email protected]!

I still have a few more copies and you never know when the mood might strike me to send another . . . .

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope your day is a fabulous one!  I’m hoping my new glasses are in and I can finally pick them up and I might, just might, find someone to cut this stylish hair of mine!

Remember, life is short . . . . embrace the adventures of the day!
