it is upon us...

Well, try as I might, I could not stave off the arrival of the cold.

Yes, by many standards, Dallas has mild winter weather, but we DO have

cold and wind and last year... the dreaded S-word fell on us with a vengeance!

I am not so very fond of bare trees and howling winds.

Tell me, what mermaid would be?

BUT~ I am feeling very creative!

I've been making lots of pretties and that always

warms my heart.

I have a show this weekend.

Here's a peek at some of my wares...

Stay warm~

How did that happen?

November? LATE November... wha???

Last thing I remember is being poolside with a lime flavored beer

and now the chilly winds of November are making flurries of colored

leaves. Times waits for nobody and no thing! But, as these days pass

in shades of pewter and gold, I will remember that springtime will

be on the other side.

Autumn means show season. The photo above is a snippet of my setup

for a show last weekend. It was a good show! I am in my studio today

preparing for the next one. It is a grey, cold day and my studio is warm

and glittery. It's all good.

Hope your weekend is cozy and filled with things that make you smile.

show time!

I can account for absence! The above photo attests to my whereabouts.

I've been feverishly preparing for this weekend's show.

I've been chained to the table in my studio/sweatshop, nearly buried

under a heap-o-sparkles! Good times!

I will be at First United Methodist Church in Plano this weekend

hawking my wares. Just look for a cloud of glitter!

xo~

in flight

Halloween is the perfect time for a bit of time travel.

I sort of believe in time travel... I WANT to believe in it,

so I guess I do. It goes well with glitter and I like the clothes.

My friend Jana (on the right) joined me for a wee trek through the ages.

What a magical night. Hope yours was, too!
