Swapping

Sometimes one is looking for a gift for a child, a family member or a friend

They can be hard to find.

I love swapping, so you are welcome to choose anything from my Etsy shop

And I will swap it for something of yours,

The Winter Snow fairy

I do love the imagery of what something likes this conjures up

To me it is a Winter Snow fairy carrying an Enchanted Snow Acorn
And the glitter represents Starlight

My daughter is visiting

My only darling daughter is visiting

She is a bit arty like her Mother

We always get the paints out

This is what she painted yesterday

I think I might put her to work

Doing some art for my Etsy shop, ha ha

Preparing

I wonder if you are like me at this time of the year

Busy with phone calls and emails on what to bring on Christmas day

Is there enough bedding for visitors, who is bringing what

Present buying, card sending, Christmas baking, tree decorating

All preparing for Christmas day with family

It is the one time of the year when everyone makes a great effort to be together as a family

Photos are taken to hold those memories close to our hearts

Living the dream

I am one lucky lady

I am living my dream, to stay home and be a homemaker and create

My husband works full time at a local apple orchard

I lead a simple life, in a small warm home

How lucky am I

Lucky because I can send my art out into the world

to make people smile

Opp shopping

 I enjoy going Opp shopping, (Opportunity shops)

Or thrift shops, you may call them

One can find all sorts of treasures

I spotted this cane frame for $2, 

And knew exactly what I was going to use it for

Waiting Patiently

Sometimes one just has to wait patiently

And then when you get it, you sure do shine
