What am I working on???

I have been trying to get some things done up for a local antique shop that I am going to start selling my stuff in on November 1st. I am excited, I haven't really sold anything local for a few years now! I got a couple of these neat old boxes finished and one will probably go on here for sale and the other in the shop. The old lamp is actually only half finished. I am working on a neat battery operated candle to put in the center. I am priming it up right now. .

I have been making jewelry like crazy to go to the antique shop. It is a fun break from painting and I LOVE it! I love using little antique treasures in my jewelry! I have also been trying my hand at metal stamping and I love that too! Once I get the store all stocked up I will go back to listing a few things on here and on ebay. It just seems that there is never enough time to get everything I want to done!

This was an eventful week for me...I had to take Adam to the doctor and then the ER on Monday. Turns out he has an infection that was causing pain and swelling. He missed three days of school and has tons of homework but is feeling alot better now.

I have also been busy making halloween treats and getting things ready for Adam's school party. The little ones are all excited for Halloween. My kids don't trick or treat any more and don't want costumes either. I really miss that, I enjoyed maknig their costumes every year!


I even got to meet a friend of mine this week that I have known for a long time, but only through ebay groups, Susie of Yankee Lane Primitives. She was working in Columbia so my sister and I went up to have dinner with her. We went to Huhot, a Mongolina grill, and one of our favorite places to go. It was great, it seemed like we had known each other forever! The food was great, dinner came with a free salad and margaritas were only two bucks! You can't beat that!

I hope everyone has a fun and safe Halloween!
