Fall and fun things to do!

The leaves are falling everywhere here and it is starting to look like fall! The tempature has sure cooled off too. It is making me want to make a pumpkin pie or something. In my house fall and winter sure brings lots of homeade soups, crock pot meals and casseroles! Yummy!

I haven't been painting as much as I would like these last couple weeks but I have been busy. I was working on bottlecap necklace orders and some other things I really need to get finished for local people. I still have alot of those things left to do. At least next week will be the last week for softball. It makes me happy and sad all at the same time. I am happy that I will have nothing to do in the evenings but paint and craft.........but I am also sad that Erica will never be playing softball again. She is a senior, and this is her last year. They just grow up so fast.

I have fallen in love with the junk jewelry that everyone is wearing now. I have been trying my hand making jewelry anyway and I LOVE to collect junk of all kinds so it is only natural that I had to give it a go. I made several necklaces for me to wear with all kinds of neat treasures on them...here is one of my favorites! I am really looking forward to making more of these and possibly offering some for sale. They will make great gifts too! My brother in law just called me and he found a small metal stamping set for a great price so I am excited to try some metal stamping too!

I do have one more fall thing that I am almost finished with.....I can't seem to get motivated to get it done. I am ready to switch over to some snowmen and Christmas things already! So until I get that finished.......HAPPY FALL! Chris
