Well I am behind again. I think I will probably be that way a lot. But I am going to catch up a little now. First I have had all kinds of things going on in my life since last I wrote. I have been going thru all kinds of tests. I have a few medical problems that they thought were worth checking on. So far everything has come back ok. At least no cancer. I have a couple tests that I am still waiting on the results, hopefully they will be in by the end of next week.
My youngest son got in a terrible car (truck) accident and was in the hospital for a while. I spent almost every day up there with him. He broke both jaw bones, his nose, his shoulder and has a couple small fractures in his neck. A long with some mild brain damage. But he is home now and is doing real well. It will be a while until he is back to `normal' but he is on his way.
I have been working on a couple things in polymer clay and hopefully will have them done soon. I will post pic when I do. I have been looking around the web and have found some good site for some free tutorials. So I thought I would share one today. Go to: http://polymerclayexpress.com/sept2001.html
to learn Faux Abalone Shell with Black Oxide Powder. This is an easy tutorial that I am sure will please many of you.
Until next time have happy day and have some fun clay playin'.

Starting over again.....................

Good morning everyone. Here I am again starting over. Hope this time I make it to at least post on here once a month. But I really want it to be once a week. Since I have been gone a few things have happened.

I finally finished my "things for God to do" boxes. Everyone just loved them.I have made some new earrings and sold some and gave some away.

I went back to crocheting and have made a couple doilies and am working on a table covering. That one is going to take a while but I will post some pic as I go along.

I have some new blogs I am following and as time goes on I will post a little about each one.

I am also on Face Book, so come visit me when you can. It is a great place to stay in contact with your claying friends and get some live craft videos.

I will be posting more about that also. So please come back often or sign up to be a follower then you will know when I update. I hope all of you have a good day and get to play with your clay.

A good link to check out

A few days ago SaraJane Helm was mentioned on my COC site and I was a little slow at going to look at SaraJanes site but I am sure glad I finaly had the time. This room is just remarkable,as is SaraJane. All the detail and love that went in to make it shows in every picture. If you haven't had time to take a look I urge you to take the time now. You won't be disappointed. Here's the link. .http://polyclay.com/pieces.htm
I have been working on making some "things for God to do boxes" for some friends of mine at church. These ladies made sure we had some nice dinners while I was taking my treatments so I wanted to give them something I made from the heart. The idea came from one of the members, Kay, at COC. Thanks again Kay. I am using some little tin boxes that I had purchashed at the dollar store after Christmas. When I get my camera to working again I will post some pix.
