Where has the last week gone ??
A house full of family and friends,
kettles of chili and pans of cornbread...
several custom orders to "finish"...
and did I mention TAX TIME ! Ugh.

Any day I can work with beads, 
is a good day. 
I love simple pleasures...

Things are a little bit of a mess...
piles of wool everywhere.

I can't even begin to gather my thoughts 
until the wool is in neat piles, 
so that I can see what I have to 
work with !

My #3 Daughter visited and brought
me this wonderful string holder,
complete with a neat pair of rustic scissors.

Bay Leaf Tree - ThreeSheepStudio.com

I stopped by the greenhouse this week,
to pick up my own little Bay Leaf tree...
they are sturdy and so easy to care for.

I will need to have the Bay leaves for next year 
to string a new garland, like this one. 

Enjoy the day before you !

  2. Everything looks great. What a great gift! I had a lovely Bay Leave tree. When I had a horse, he ate it to the ground. I need to get another one. I loved it. What a great idea.
    So may great projects. Have a lovely week.

  6. Im still thinking about the chili n cornbread..
    My string holder has a rooster on top and I love it.
    Your beading is so beautiful and I do love the look.
    Im going to search out a bay leaf tree. Always liked the string fruit during holidays but have never got beyond cloves in oranges. .
