Testing new address for Blog

Please come by and look at my new address. I've found it very hard to post comments on this blog or many Blogger blogs so I'm going to try to move. :)

Dragon Mittens

Just made two pair of mittens for Isaac.
I saw the idea on Martha Stewart's web site.
I used this sites pattern for the mittens themselves.
I had to get my daughter to send me a picture of of my Grandson's hands on a dollar bill for sizing. I will post a picture on him next time he's in.

When I made the first pair I accidental made the underside both right so I just made another pair out of the material I picked up yesterday.

If it was colder here in Texas I'd line the polar fleece.

Colman mine

We did a lot of rock gazing when we visited Hot Springs AR. We visited the Ron Colman mine



I love this black crystal I plan on some jewlery out of this

I never looked at Slag like I did today. I saw parts for jewelery and cos-play costumes.

I'm hoping to add some pictures to my web sites wallpapers.

A million marbles.

Sorting through beautiful stones.

This piece of Amethest is over 1000$

I want to think of something to use these in. They really caught my eye.

Glass slag

What we picked up at one of our stops.

Brought home some Amethest for Deb and Justin to make jewelery out of.

I want to mount these on staff's for selling at one of Deb's Anime Con visits.

I'd like to wrap these in metal sorta like stainglass.

This piece is so much prettier in person. I want Hubby to mount it on a shelf and light it from behind. Spots in it glow with light behind them. We will probably use a mirror behind because both sides are so nice.

Day out

I woke up feeling a bit sickly yesterday so we didn't go out driving for our anniversary. We made up for it today and ran up to Hot Springs, AR.
We found a bit of Hot Springs we had only driven through once before it's a Gorge. I just love the bridge. I want to come back after it greens out and take some more pictures.

The water looks perfect for slipping off the shoes and wading a bit. I'm going to visit here in the summer and try it out.


I feel a story coming from this bunch of pictures.

A Dr. Who Christmas Order at the last minute

My first emergency order was for an Adipose baby.
This cute little Fat Baby is an Adipose Baby from Dr. Who

He's really a cute little plush toy.

My second order was for a TARDIS Lunchbox

Sides

Lining
It made my son in law very happy! So I'm happy and so is my daughter.
