Thursday things…

Now that Christmas is over, I can post a few of the beading items that I made and gave away.

Amethyst

This is an amethyst necklace and earrings set…chunks and round beads.

 

Seed pearls, cat's eye

And blue cat’s eye and seed pearls for a special ‘blue’ gal. 

Picture this in onyx, rather than blue.  I forgot to take a photo of that one before it got wrapped.  Duh.  That particular recipient loves zebras, so she got a black and white necklace.

P1000935

And this is a pink cat’s eye necklace for our ‘pink’ gal.   With her being the oldest, I wanted this necklace to be just a bit different and a little more mature than the other two.  I think all the girls were pleased.

I have some ideas churning around in my head for my next few projects.  I just placed an online order for some items I need, so I’ll be busy…or as busy as I want to be.

So yesterday we did indeed have breakfast at John G’s on the beach.  That ocean was so calm, there weren’t even any wavelets out there.  Flat, flat.  No surfers anywhere, and not many folks on the beach either.  And even better:  no line to get in the restaurant!  Woohoo…that rocks!

Thought for the day:  Don't take yourself so seriously.  No one else does.

Make it a great day, y’all!

Pretty necklace sets! I'm positive that everyone loved them. Have you ever ordered from shipwreck beads? They carry some cool stuff.

Very pretty necklace and earring sets indeed. You are so talented.

I'm glad the weather is nice and you had a great breakfast at John Gs without waiting forever for a table. Good for you.

Have a terrific day honey. Big hugs from foggy and cold California. :)
