Glass Jewel Box

We have done these before but I so love them...
I was excited to make another one...
good deal to...
I had forgotten how to do the hinge..!!
important part right..

here is the  Link  to my first jewel box
made at the

Merry Go Round Glass Shop

and here is my second try


and some side details..
 the embellishments
are not attached yet
I took the little flower center and had Vicki
fuse it so it rounded out nicely
then had to glue all the fun parts on



I cannot make one without legs for some reason..

Don't you love the teal colors
so soft and pure

my freind Sandy found this fun little gem
in one of the scrap boxes
at the shop



I Love her color choices too

then one of the other guests pulled this beauty out
she found it at Hobby Lobby
won't this look so lovely on the
rounded front of this box
I had to get me one too
don't ya know.



I need to make a few more of these
just for the fun of it..

Have a great day

My Birthday.... celebrated my way...

My freinds and I spent the day in
Dallas for my birthday....
shopping.
I know those who know me might think this weird,
 as I am not that big of a shopper..
but we were shopping for fabric,
beads, buttons and charms..
lace and trims off all kinds...
I can shop with this stuff around...
can't you?
and boy was it around...
every single corner ..
take a look and see what we seen....
and ultimately bought...lol.

my first view in the first store

but if you are interested this will appear in my 



 I am be selling it for $12.50 plus shipping
if you are interested please contact me
1st come 1st to get
I don't crochet much

My Friend Gayle and I got together to do a bit of soldering...
I wanted to get some projects finished up..
it has been some time since I soldered so this was funtime for me...
check out the things I made.

A little Angel


Some Holly Leaves

I am hoping to soon take a Decorative solder
class to take my work to the next
level... I just love some of the work
with it...these all would be lots
better too..
felt so good to solder again...
