Beauty day

Ah, our favorite lovely hairdresser who is also a good friend and we love her.
The handsome fella with her is Max. He's a looker isn't he?Getting a trim.

The hair shop is above a flower/gift shop.
Here I am looking down over it.
See the hairdressers mirror on the right?

It's a fun place to visit. There is much to look at while your hair is being cut...if you don't fall asleep like I usually do.

Oops, the after picture disappeared...I'll post it later.

Looky what I got!

My partner Raesha, from the Hanging Hearts Swap, sent me some wonderful things!
Thank you Raesha! I love it all!Here is the Heart she made me.
Isn't it so pretty?

I love the colors and it's quilted.
It's my first sewn/quilted craft item and I now know I want to learn to use my sewing machine!

Oh, the pain meds sure can make one sleep, eh?
That is Scratch...he won't give up his end of the couch, so no stretching out allowed!

On the way to the oral surgeon...

We stopped to eat on the way and this statue/lamp was at our table.
Pretty huh?What does one do before having things cut and yanked out of ones face?

You to Starbucks and enjoy the last cup of hot coffee you'll have for a week.

What does a sixteen year old do?
Take pictures of herself on her phone.

This building?
I just liked it!

It's great to be home and comments on B is for...

Home from the dentist in Seattle and it's nice to be out of the car. It's such a long drive.
The hubby's wisdom teeth are pulled now and his jaw didn't need fixing. Apparently it is a common thing to have the jaw break or splinter when a tooth is pulled.
The broken/splintered area is healing itself and the sliver of bone is reabsorbing back into the body on its own. I am glad of that.
Next the son there will have his wisdom teeth out...before he's in his late forties!
Thanks for all the great comments on my B post. They are funny and nice!
I hadn't thought of saving my big brother post for Wednesday. It would have been a good one. So would broken jaw.
And yes, my broom gets around quite a bit!

Wednesdays B is for...

Broom and box in front of B building...

Broom on the bus...

Broom on the boat...

Broom on the frozen pond...

I won't be near the computer tomorrow, so I am posting today :)
Husband has a broken jaw from a tooth being pulled and will have surgery to fix it.
Maybe I'll find some C pictures in Seattle tonight.

Snow!

I got the snow I asked for a number of posts back, but now I don't want it!
Not today anyway!
We have to drive to Seattle in this tomorrow!
Let's hope for a big thaw by then or I'll have a meltdown!

Isn't it pretty though?

One World One Heart Event

Drum roll Please!
The birds nest goes to...Erin at The Classy Rabbit!
and
The box goes to...Miss Koolaid!
Yay!
Congratulations Ladies!!!!

The One World One Heart Event was put together by Lisa Oceandreamer at HeART of the Nest so bloggers can meet other bloggers.
I will announce a winner on February 14th, so get to commenting!
You're supposed to have an active blog to enter and then leave me a comment to be entered.

I have been working on what to offer for my giveaway items and I finished them!
The winner will get to choose which prize they want and if I get a lot of entries, I'll just have to offer both items!
UPDATE:
I have had so many comments that I will give both away and I might try to make something more.
Now,the first item is this little bird sitting on her nest of eggs.
She's glittered.
The nest is a paper mache with Angelina fibers formed all around it.
The nest sits on a doily and there's a doily around the paper mache base.
I had fun making this one.

The second is this box I have painted and decorated.
Yes, I am obsessed with crackle paint!
Since the winner will be announced on Valentines Day, the hanging bits spell Love.

So leave me a comment and be entered to win!

Beading Tip

Sometimes when I bead, I use this storage container lid. The beads sit in the indented area and it makes for easier stringing.
If you flip the lid over, there is an even smaller section right along the edge that works as well.
Just watch out that your cats don't jump in your lap, it might go flying.
Then you'll have little beads all over the place!
Then if you're not quite done you can even put the beads, string and all into the storage container that this lid goes to.How's that?

Oh wonderful things

I was part of the Vintage Dragonfly's Itty Bitty White Book swap.
The theme was white and it is beautiful.
i was so excited to open the package and here I'll share a bit of it with you here.

And now for something a little different.
I am going to participate in the One World One Heart Give Away that Lisa Oceandreamer put together and this is what I am working on.
I wonder what it will be when I'm all done?
Hmmm...
