On My Table !

This is some of what I have been working on for the last week ! I have been creating some jewelry pieces for an up coming event ! I am using new and old treasures together , I have also been making some Ice Resin piece's ( will post some of those another day ) .
I was out pulling weeds in my garden last evening , it is my therapy time whenever I work in my garden . Something about the quietness and watching all the wonderful things growing and as they begin to bring forth fruit is so rewarding . I am reminded of the old timey song , I remember my mom singing it many times!
I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear, falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses
And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known
He speaks and the sound of His voice
Is so sweet the birds hush their singing
And the melody that He gave to me
Within my heart is ringing
And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known
I'd stay in the garden with Him
'Tho the night around me be falling
But He bids me go; through the voice of woe
His voice to me is calling
And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known
Hope you have a blessed day ! Now I am off to get a lot more projects done !!

What's Been Goin On !!!

The past month has been crazy busy !!! Just when you think you may have a heads up on things , stuff happens and bam.... your behind !  My parents basement flooded this spring as we had record snowfall in over 100 years and what a mess , all there carpet had to be taken out , sheetrock cut out up to 30 inches all the way around in every room , ugh !  So it is a big tore up mess and I got to deal with all the stuff , when your 91 and 99 believe me there is STUFF !!!  My mom is an artist , she has not done anything for quite a few years , so I decided to bring her stash of paint brushes to my home, still in the jars that she kept them in !!
Two of my boys have moved to Colorado , so they each had homes here to sell so I got the lucky task of doing that !!! We are in a major boom , so selling a house takes one or two weeks at the max !! It's all the other things that take time , clean up , paper work  and the list goes on ! But now they are all in the hands of the new owners , so glad !!

I have been working on an Etsy order for 60 of these paper flowers that have ties on them , they are for a bridal shower and will tie on the napkins ! They are time consuming !! Layers of various papers and have glimmer mist for a touch of sparkle !
Because we had a late spring , everyone is behind on yard work and getting the garden in , including me ! My garden does not have much of anything pretty to take a photo of  yet ! This is a planter on my deck !
