Inbetweens

Hello Beautiful,
Though I would do one of my patented sporadic posts :) I've been busy with getting ready for graduation, and all the family coming in to share the love with my son. The house is now in a shape that any hotel would rise to a five star rating....wonder if I can charge hotel rates to the in laws? Hmm...the possibilities :)

My not so little Bear has been keeping me hopping with all the end of the year activities. This weekend it was my proud moment to watch him compete at the state track meet. This week is track banquet, senior project presentations, marching in the town parade, then off on senior trip to the Oregon Coast. Wonder if I can hide in his suitcase?
In the meantime Little Miss has two field trips, and two softball games. My Beans is back from her world travels and here at home for two weeks, and the wedding plans for my eldest are cranking right along.......I think it's most definitely time for a large glass of wine!
Keep a kind thought for me...I might need it before we are through :)
Bright Blessings,
Theresa

Truth in advertising

I'm always amazed by other artist's work spaces. I bring this up because I saw some posted pictures of craft rooms/studios today. They are stunningly pristine, organized, color coordinated, and decorated!
I have decided either they went through a 2 week clean up mission or I am a complete and utter slob!

This is my desk after a 5 necklace bender.

Don't get me wrong I clean my space between bouts of crazy crafting, but while I am creating I don't or can't stop what I'm doing to make it 'company is coming'  presentable. If I stop to put away every little bead drawer and dust off.....I completely lose momentum. At that point I might as well just go attack the laundry monster hiding in the chute. He bites, so I avoid him at all costs!

I'm afraid to show you the sewing half of the room after the 3 bears I finished yesterday. Suffice to say the cats have plenty of tidbits and scraps to play with until I get back in there this afternoon.

I personally would like to see some 'truth in advertising', but I'm nosy that way :)

I have to go to work at the day job today. I would much rather be in the craft room, as I still have 2 orders to finish up. Sounds like much more fun than paperwork right now.

 So I leave you with what I would rather be right now :) Bright and creative blessings friends! Theresa 

Drive By Posting

Hi Beauties :)
Just a quick post for fun, while I take a lunch break from studio work.
How about some music on a monday......can you say "80's flashback" ?

Spring has Sprung

I am no longer MIA.

Just flaming busy.

we have done lots of this.....

and some of this.....

a little of this....

Tonight is little Miss Sunshine's play.....she's one of the forest friends in Snow White. Working our way up to Graduation, and Wedding.


 Am I silly for missing them already? Weird I know, I miss them more while they are here, than when they are gone. Silly Mama :)

I am truly hoping to sneak some craft time in this weekend to simmer down the racing marbles in my head! (Heck I'm happy I got to sneak some blog time in!) If you have a chance take a peek at my new
flightfancy fan page on facebook....it needs some love.  Bright Blessings! Have a grand weekend friends! Theresa

I creeped myself out!

I hate to admit it, but I creeped myself out. Well my son helped with that one a bit. I finished the third doll. I am truly pleased with her, but in deciding her demise I asked my son for help. Being the trustworthy fireman he is, he has an extensive knowledge of knots. So it was my bright idea that Minerva's demise was hanging. He made a hangman's noose for the doll. A first I though cool! and she does look cool.......but then the hornery child came out in my son and he decided to pay me back for chasing him down with the bee doll. He strung her up from the overhead light in the craft room.

He took the hanging picture (not me!) I came back in the craft room and did one of those stationary panic dances, squealing to take her down! He just stood there laughing like an idiot. Needless to say I'm sure the next Melodrama sister will have a titch less creepy demise!
