New Product: Clay {Figurines and Florals} Creations

Boy oh boy... the things you can do with clay. I sat down back in October and made some floral arrangements and figurines {while I'm not a big fan of figurines, I am definitely getting into it}. I just got around to taking pictures of some of my items. I know I'm late.

Feeling Inspired



So for Christmas Eve dinner, I set out to make two arrangements for a dining room table that would accomodate 10 individuals. I wasn't sure what I wanted but I knew that I didn't want an item that I could only use at Christmas time. Instead, I wanted an item that was inspired by the theme and colors of Christmas {red and green}. I decided to let those colors inspire me.

This is what I came up with.....





..... I guess you can say that this is a sneak peak of my clay collection. :-)

Busy Little Bee


I'm sure you've noticed that I have been away from this very special blog of mine.

Sorry for being so out of the loop. I have been extremely busy working and celebrating the holidays with loved ones. I'm back and ready to get back into gear.

Over the holidays, I made numerous POST IT Notebooks {that I hoped to post on this site} and in five days most of them were gone. I'm definitely not complaining.... I am grateful that people recognized the usefulness of these petite notebooks and thought of it when deciding on gifts.

The pictures below are a few POST IT Notebooks from my recent order:

Hump Day Quotes/ Inspiration {12/2/09}: Why Marriage?


WHY MARRIAGE?
Because to the depths of me, I long to love one person,
With all my heart, my soul, my mind, my body...
...Because I need a forever friend to trust with the intimacies of me,
Who won't hold them against me,
Who loves me when I'm unlikable,
Who sees the small child in me, and
Who looks for the divine potential of me...
...Because I need to cuddle in the warmth of the night
With someone who thanks God for me,
With someone I feel blessed to hold...
...Because marriage means opportunity
To grow in love in friendship...
...Because marriage is a discipline
To be added to a list of achievements...
...Because marriages do not fail, people fail
When they enter into marriage
Expecting another to make them whole...

...Because, knowing this,
I promise myself to take full responsibility
For my spiritual, mental and physical wholeness
I create me,I take half of the responsibility for my marriage
Together we create our marriage...

...Because with this understanding
The possibilities are limitless.
