Struggling but...creating

Hi Friends,

Well..the past few days I have been struggling.

My dear daughter left Monday for her senior trip

to...Hawaii! Can you believe that?

Boy does this Mom wish I could have gone...

but my daughter has worked so hard through

her High School years, gotten such good grades,

endured some emotional hard times and

still has come out on top.

Her true Character and Love for our

Lord has grown...so I guess

I won't begrudge her this fun time in her life.

So...I headed to my studio to see if I could

put any life to the many unfinished things I

need to do.

And as I often do, I get side tracked.

Going through some spring things I hadnt

finished last year I came across a large

Paper Mache egg...

and the juices began to flow.

I even found some older paper roses

that had started to fade that were

PERFECT

for this project.

Doncha LOVE it when an idea

comes out and it all falls

into place?

So I took some pictures and figured I might as

well see if this would sell.

That's another reason I am down.

But I know the times right now

are hard for everyone...

this family is no exception.

Hubs still is looking for work after

almost a year and a half.

God's perfect plan is being

waited upon by us...

but you know...

the seats in the waiting room are gettting

pretty hard.

Okay...pictures to tease...

Then I took a few pictures of another sweet

nut cup basket I made for one of

my dearest friends!

I knew she'd like the pink and blue

I used in this one.

PS..I gave my basket to my friend Susie last night and

She LOVED it!

Thanks for stopping by and letting me share!

Have a great day!
