Beginning stages of my entry for the winter swap

Here is the next style


another 40 of different ones

another shot, notice the little snowflake dangles
also in the next picture you will see another long dangle with a bugle bead and a silver ball and the snowflake spacers used as a spacer instead of a dangle. Yes my fingers were sore after all of these!

BUSY LIKE A BEE

Well I have been a busy little bee as usual. Here are some of my Halloween projects, a vintage halloween ornament for a swap of 18 people, then a 50 person Halloween charm swap that I hosted. My mom's dog yoda was helping me as you can see in one of the photos. Here is a pretty sunset in the desert on Halloween weekend!

right now I am busy on all things Christmas! I am hosting an ornament swap, a vintage tag and charm swap. I am also in a winter charm swap, a mickey and minnie charm swap, a new years charm swap and a Twas the night before Christmas tag book swap! I am up to my ears ladies!

i am leaving for Thanksgiving vacation at the end of next week too, so I must hustle! I probably won't post for another month, but I will be back with pictures of all my projects!
love to you all and a HAPPY THANKSGIVING
!
