2 blooms , larger than the cactus. I never thought it would bloom for me.

I think l am battling storms; until l pray for some and realize l have only an inconvenience.It is painful and frightening; but God has always brought me through.

A few of my Murano Venician Brides Cake beads. The flowers are not painted; but each decoration is fired glass on the bead.

I have ordered some supplies to add an extra touch of beauty to my Sachets and hand made flowers. At times we make our biggest plans ; and we face major stumbling blocks. I had to face that health issue; and now healing. I can tell my body has faced an ordeal; yet, l am more vibrant and excited than ever to use every talent God blessed me with. Stay with me, Surprises are coming.

I hope to soon post new paintings, my Jewelry, and hand made flowers. I lost my precious husband 8 years ago; but l also lost heart. Every night l would cry myself to sleep. Until l remembered making Camellias out of fresh Gladolias for a June Bride. If l could do that 35 years ago, why not make flowers from fabric and ribbons. And add Sachets too. So l began working to organize my life into stations so l can accomplish all that God has planted in my heart and mind. I have sold 2 trailer loads of pottery, crystal, and various collectibles to get my work space. I am presently sorting fabrics, ribbons and lace into groups l want to use and to sell. I will soon be posting new creations of variety. I have partially completed jewelry and flowers; however it is past midnight; and all are in various backyard buildings. I quickly located 1 photograph of 2 flowers. I hope you enjoy the unfinished creations of my healed Heart.

My precious Great Grandson seems happy snuggled in the quilt l made him. Life has been so busy. I am trying to decide what fabric to keep and what to sell. It is hard because l never dreamed l would use the train fabric.

This trip home from visiting Family; l took a detour through some tiny old towns , and new old highways with GPS to take me home. It was a great adventure of Christmas Cheer.
