Primitive Pup, Xmas Gifties and Etsy!

Hi!  I've been busily working to get my xmas gifts mailed.  Fortunately I mailed out the presents to family on Tuesday (I think this will be the first time in years they'll actually receive them before christmas!) 
I've been working on some presents for girlfriends that need to be mailed yesterday!   I thought
I'd show you some earrings I made for Stacie out of some gorgeous carved amazonite flower beads
and teensy fresh water pearls.  I've hung them on the ribbon of the sweetest primitive puppy
that I got for myself on ebay.  He's so old, stuffed with straw and just loved to bits.  You'll
also see the sweet chenille loopy scarf (also for stacie) that I got at Ross for $3.99~!  (had to get one for me too!)  I'm telling you, there are some darling things out there for CHEAP!  My favorite price. :)
After spending a few days in Seattle with stacie last week, I discovered a must have present she needed.  She and I are both bubble bath addicts and while soaking in hers I was suddenly missing this.... If your tub is one of your favorite spots in your house then
you're familiar with that irritating overflow doohickey (usually has the up down lever connected to the drain) that makes suction noises as it sucks down all the water touching it....Until I discovered this little $5 treasure (bed bath and beyond), I would have to add extra water several times before I was ready to leave my cozy water world.  It's a clear rubbery cover with suction cups that you stick over the overflow spot.  You' have high water until you get out...now I only refill when I need a warm up. :)  You can find this at www.better-sleep.com . 

Okay, off to make dinner and continue working on my to do-list.  Hope you're having a great day....or night.  oxoxo
ps..finally listing some earrings made for my Etsy Shop...well, will have them on in the next day or two.  Here's a sneak peek...

Hello sweet girl! It was so nice to hear from you (I tried emailing you but it keeps bouncing back)- I can never thank you enough for putting the art4acure deck together a couple of years ago... my Mom kept her deck at her bedside right up until her death - and tho her mind was ravaged by Alzheimer's, she understood the meaning of the deck and her part in it and I know it gave her comfort. I wish you a wonderful holiday and new year filled with good health and much creativity! xox Deb

That Deep Water Bath thingie has to be one of the best things I have heard about all year! THANK YOU for sharing!!
I love to read in the bath ... I have a wonderful old deep tub, but am forever trying to make the water stop escaping and making that annoying noise by putting my foot over those holes! I am going to brave the seasonal shoppers (re: go near the maul) and find one!

Darling pupper BTW ::grin:: you know I adore "loved to perfection" stuffed toys!
=^..^= kisses, zU
