This photo was taken in the midst of its Make Over. . .

Bunches of Blingy Bracelet Stacking

Wearing lots of bracelets or necklaces (or both to be Extra Blingy) is such a fun trend!!! Stacking your favorites is ALWAYS acceptable - whether they are 'related' or not - only rule is It Should Make Your Heart Sing (and put a smile upon that beautiful face of yours)!!! Mix those metals! Mix those colors! Be happy! Be blingy!

Well. . . .mostly, but. . . .

Peace, Love and Bling

Every year I pull out my carefully packed, stacked and stored tubs loaded with all kinds of winter holiday decor and decide which of the treasures are going to escape their confines for the month of December (and, let's be honest - a bit longer than that!)

Prettifying with Pumpkins

I'm not a huge Halloween decorations kind of person. I don't like the scary stuff. I tend more towards lots of bottles and potions (and a couple ghosts, of course) kind of fare. My mantle shows this year's Halloween 'laboratory'

that makes me grin every time I catch a glimpse of it. I'm also in love with the time-less velvet & rhinestones witch. I made a costume a few years ago that catches my alter-ego perfectly and warms my heart whenever I think of it.

My Forest Friends

I live in a forest.

Well. . . not quite - but I do have over an acre of forest in my backyard and across the road, just like many of my neighbors here in the Ozarks. Nearly every time I look out a window or venture outside I see the wonders of some beautiful creature looking back at me.
