Dreaming of Beautiful Things

Valentine's Day

I hope you all had a wonderful day and were able to spread some happiness to a special someone in your life. My amazing husband showered me with gifts but the most important thing he gave me is his love. I am lucky to have such a loving considerate husband. I spent the day working on new jewelry for an upcoming show I'm participating in. I also made new earring tags out of canvas. I like how they turned out. You are invited to the Delightfully Eclectic Show in Victoria, BC starting on February 29, 2012.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I thought today would be a good day to get back to posting on my blog. I have no excuses and I've been thinking about it for a long time. I just never got around to it. Do you know what I mean?

Here's an update of what I've been doing since my last post....3 months ago. I can't believe it's been that long!

In October I got a job with the Girls and Boys Club of Edmonds. I worked as a site director in their after school program at Lynndale Elementary School. I loved it but it was alot harder than I thought it would be. I was suffering with arthritis in my knee and was in desperate need of a knee replacement. I worked through the kids Christmas break from school but found it was so hard on my knee. I quit just after Christmas. I still miss the job, my colleges and especially the kids!

In October and November, while I was working, I was also making jewelry for two Christmas Craft Fairs I had signed up for. I enjoyed doing them but it was alot of work! These are pictures from the Lynnwood High School Vendor Splendor.

This was the booth next to me. She knit about 5 hats during the day while she was sitting there!

This cute dog was all dressed up and going around visiting people. He was so friendly and had different colored eyes.

I didn't take any pictures of the Dicken's Fair I participated in. We were so busy I didn't even think of it!

Stay tuned for more tomorrow and an update on the next show coming up!

I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Thanks for stopping by!
