White fluff falling from the sky!!!! It snowed!!

Ohhhh, I love the snow, I really really do. It makes me smile every time. When I left work today I had to clean off my car, it had about 2 inches of snow on it. Other people probably think I'm crazy but I love cleaning snow off the car, shoveling the driveway, I truly enjoy it. Only time I get frustrated is if we have 2 feet of heavy wet snow that I need to remove, my tennis elbow doesn't like that very much. But today, it was only 2 inches on the car, our driveway was still clear so no shoveling tonite but ohhh how pretty it looks outside, everything is covered with a blanket of snow. Loving it.

Okay enough about snow let's share some treasuries I've been featured in.

Forever mine

Did you know that swans mate forever! Anyway, my daughter rented the movie "Black Swan" the other day so I watched it with her. Hmmm, it was a pretty "dark" movie I must say kinda in a horror way which I had not expected but all in all it was pretty good. Very interesting view and how it all came together. Sometimes I ask my kid to give me a color combo to put together a treasury at first she said black and silver since she was busy making a beautiful swan pendant out of polymer clay but then she said base it on black swan ... so I did and here it is ...

Faux cake anybody?


I wasn't sure if I was going to turn this into a child faux cake toy or a giant pincushion. I decided for the latter since this will make a lovely Valentine or Mother's day gift. And, if somebody decides to purchase it for a child toy so be it. Only thing I want to make sure of is that if it's going to be played with they need to remove the three heart pins it comes with!

Anyway, here it is ... a sweet CALORIE FREE cake to please your sweet heart!!! Just listed it in my PurplePlatypus store which you can get to by clicking this link: http://www.etsy.com/listing/90000743/crocheted-felted-heart-cake-pincushion?ref=pr_shop
