Projects galore and a small kerfluffle

Don't you love the word kerfluffle??  Other than sounding kinda cute and funny it also sounds just like the situation it describes.  I had a bit of one at work this last Friday.  I was being a busy bee at work when my body decided it didn't like something (we are guessing dust in the warehouse) and closed off my whole throat.  I couldn't breathe or swallow, had neck hives, my boss had to call 911, like basically sucked.  Thankfully the firemen and paramedics were fast and efficient and they had me in much better shape fast.  That was a first for me though and I hope it never happens again.

Other than that actually I've been having a very good week and weekend.  Been busy working on projects mostly for sale and some fun things with the hubby.

I week back we made shrinky dinks together, his sister gave us a set for Christmas, it was a moment of full blown whimsy, something I feel there is not enough of.  I decided to make our little robots into a garland and hung them with our plants, they are cute and colorful and make me smile!



I also finished a couple doll kits I got, a fairy and a mermaid.  The mermaid looks like me strawberry blond hair and everything!! :)  These were fun kits I got as part of my Christmas gifts this year.  I think they look adorable don't you?  Hard to see but the fairy has a cute flower wand and little heart details on her wings and the mermaid's tail is shiny!







I also mentioned Twig the Fairy last week and she commented!!!!! :):)  That made me major happy, squee moment.  If you like fairies or know kids who do btw she has the most adorable book out about her adventures in the land of real.  Plus her calender is just gorgeous.  She is sweet and pretty and nice and spends her days making life sweeter for everyone else.  I really wish there were more folks like her.  If you go to her facebook page you can get your own fairy name, mine ROCKS!!

My fairy name is Violet Whisper Rowan Notchwood

Love my name!  I know I mentioned before the flower fairies I've been making I have the first one I did using silk flowers, I wanted her to look like an Iris and it is hard to see but she is holding a tiny silver butterfly.  I am very pleased with how she turned out, she is only about 3 inches tall.  I am thinking of selling some of them on my etsy store.  They are addicting to make!
 


 
Well I think I've droned on enough for now, more happy gum later!
