Hooray!!! A Winner & A Surprise!!!

Hooray!! Beth was the lucky winner of these gorgeous earrings!!! Congratulations Beth!! I hope you enjoy these. And thanks so much for all of your comments everybody! And just for being so awesome, I have a wonderful surprise for you! For one whole week, starting today and ending @ midnight next Monday [February 22nd], you can purchase these earrings from my ArtFire shop and get 44% off, plus "free shipping" ~ That "44" represents the 44th President, since it is, after all, "President's Day". All you have to do is "purchase" the earrings and then when you go to check out, type in Blog Reader in the coupon code and the 44% discount will automatically be deducted! How easy is that! Be sure and type in Blog Reader to get the discount though, since it is only for you, my actual blog readers. So...since it looks like we'll have snow until Spring, we were not able to go to the Mardi Gras party. But, we are enjoying the snow and we have plenty of things to do @ home to stay busy. And Wayne got me Michael Jackson's "This Is It" movie on DVD for Valentine's Day, so we'll be watching that later today...I can't wait! I've heard it is an awesome movie. I'll let you know!

I just made this yesterday. I love it! It's called "Time Of The Season" and it's available for sale right here, if you're interested. Of course, if you purchase it from my ArtFire Shop, you'll get "free shipping" always.

Welp, I'm off to make some new things and enjoy my snowy day! Happy President's Day!
♥ & peace always ~ Kathy

New Stuff & Life Lessons.....

Hey Everybody! Hope you all had a great weekend {I know, it's Tuesday}. I've been on a roll making new stuff for the shop and just had to share these awesome bracelets:

And this cute little necklace:

I just love how they turned out ~ especially those bracelets. I dreamed about them Saturday Night {after a huge cup of "Sleepytime Tea"} and then woke up Sunday morning and cranked them out before I forgot how to make them. I love them all ~ 100% Cuteness, guaranteed!

We went over to Broc's new apartment Saturday afternoon. It's right smack in the middle of Downtown Baton Rouge {Spanishtown Road}. He is on a Mardi Gras parade route and there are thousands {literally} of beads hanging in all of the trees:

So now we have a place to go during Mardi Gras! I'm sure he will have a full house on Fat Tuesday. He just seems so happy and I'm so happy for him. I think he'll fit right in down there:

I'll be back tomorrow, but before I go, I just have to share these awesome little book that Broc gave me:

It is just full of "Prescriptions For Living":

On being true to yourself

You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself

any direction you choose.

You're on your own.

And you know what you know.

And YOU are the guy

who'll decide where to go.

~ Oh, the Places You'll Go!

Happy Tuesday ~ ♥ & peace ~ Kathy
