Happy New Year!!

Looks like I'll be ringing in the New Year with Dick! I'm still sick, but on the mend, so thanks for the well wishes! And, since I'm feeling a little better, my creativity is creeping back in:I made these gorgeous earrings today with some beautiful foil-lined glass beads. I love the "vintage" look they have about them. I guess I'm on a "vintage" kick [of sorts]...being inspired by all of these vintage images I've been perusing on this website. I'm addicted!! I even used a small collaboration of a few images to make my new Etsy banner:I love it!! So, if you're looking for a great throat soother..."Gypsy Cold Care" tea, with a dollop of local honey will do the trick! It's soooo good!

Welp, off to find something to fix for dinner, since we'll be staying in tonight. I hope you all have a very safe & a very Happy New Year!! See you in 2011!!!

♥ & peace always ~ Kathy

Road Trips & Vintage Finds...

Time flies! Wayne & I took an awesome motorcycle trip Monday. We were gone all day ~ it was so much fun and exactly what we both needed after all the house guests were back home. We went through this awesome little town of "Saluta", where we were greeted by this wonderful "Peace Sign", had lunch and walked around the little town. We found this great little vintage shop that was just so much fun and chocker block full of funny stuff!

Like this awesome purple clock purse that made me laugh, as did this:which would work out perfect for my string! And this:which was just down right hilarious! I still don't get the "raccoon", but I suppose it's somebody's inside joke! And of course there were these memories:But this was the best part of all:Happy Wednesday!!!! xxoo & peace always ~ Kathy
