Hello i'm back :)

I am happy to say I am going to start blogging again. I will be posting different crafts or projects I am doing and will even post some interesting ones I may find online. I may even just post something funny like yesterday I was at Ikea with my 6yr old and family and there was a discussion about chicken that went something like this,
Madison:You know G.G. your eating a dead chicken (she was eating a chicken leg)
G.G.: Well you are to (Madison was having chicken fingers)
Madison: no I'm not
G.G: well your eating chicken
Madison: no I'm eating chicken finger and chickens don't have fingers so I'm not eating a dead chicken
It was very funny. I will never claim to have perfect punctuation and tend to do run on sentences a lot. I do however think you will always find something interesting, cute, useful, or funny on my blog.
I will also be embarking on a new challenge for myself on Jnuary 7, 2013. I am going to do "A bow a day for 365 days". I will post a picture of a bow I have made everyday for the next 365 days starting January 7, 2013. Today I am going to post some pictures of a couple Christmas gifts I made. Its a little heavy on the pictures of the charm bracelet for my mom. I also made a hand stamped owl necklace for my grandma.

 
I also added a swarovski crystal to the necklace.
 
 
This is a penny I hand stamped a heart into and it is my daughters birthday with a swarovski crystal the color of her birthstone.


This penny is done the same as the other but with my birthday and birthstone.

This is a hand stamped washer

Just a couple other views

 
 
 
I have always wanted to try the hand stamping and I really like it. I want to make a charm bracelet for myself but have to find the time. They really loved the gifts and you don't have to worry about seeing it on anyone else they are definitely one of a kind :)

This is not part of my 365 bows a day but here is a picture of my daughter with some red and white striped bows I had to whip up last minute with thread, Christmas ribbon at grammys and attach it to her hair tie to go to a party.

They turned out cute for a last minute job.
 
Till tomorrow have a great day :)
