I never thought I would finish with that bird cage/fairy home. It's DONE!!! Yes, I'm rather happy about that. (in case you couldn't tell) It's been months of lacking inspiration, finding the right things, gluing, cutting, searching, swearing, beading, and imagining. Mostly, it's hard to think like a fairy. Go ahead, try it, I'll wait.
See? Not so easy, huh? Anywho, here are a bunch of pictures of it in the making and all done.

Another day, another unfinished project, or is it?
I have been working pretty hard lately at making and adding lots of stuff to the shop. (<--- clickety click!) I still haven't finished that damn fairy garden birdcage, but I did get the little house decorated, a cute little birdbath made from a sea shell and a golf tee installed, and the green moss carpet in. I've been like a crazed woman hell bent on finishing off all those feed bags. I was having trouble motivating myself to make them because the handles are a bitch to make and attach. So one day, as I'm researching on Pinterest (Read: wasting time) I ran across the same bags, but with grommets and rope for handles. Seriously?? Why the hell didn't I think of that?? We promptly went out and bought grommets, a setting tool, and rope. I made three bags that night, and am up to 8 in the last few days. That's more than I made in 6 months of the other kind! (And right here, I took a break and didn't type anything for over a week. Yeah, I know)
Aaaaand, a week later, I start typing again..
Ok, updates! The rock tumbler is a great investment! I wire wrapped several pieces of glass and made them into pendants. Can you believe I sold one?! She even left a really nice review.
"Very smooth stone wrapped delicately with wire. very beautiful and unique. Super fast shipping and packaged nicely. Smooth transaction. A++"
Thank you, Kelli! My daughter also bought several items from me, because she's the best kid on Earth :) So, I can't ever say that I've never sold anything again. YAY!!
I made a wind chime (<--click it!) from drift wood and tumbled glass yesterday. I like how it turned out.
Next update, I have a ton of bags cut and ready to be cleaned. I asked Little Bee if she would clean them if I pre-cut them. She said yes, but I don't think she really knew what she was getting herself in to. She keeps looking at them and leaving for the ranch to visit her horse. I would probably do the same thing though.
Enough blabbing for now. Have a great week!
