HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

To all the MOM's out there - HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Handmade Whimzy will be at the Children't Miracle Network Arts and Crafts show TOMORROW, Saturday, May 10 from 9 am to 4 pm.

It is located at the First Christian Church on the corner of Loop 323 and S. Broadway. If your in the area, stop by and get a great handmade item for Mom, Granny, Auntie or whoever!

Spring is here and it's finally getting warm in Texas! YEAH! I love sunny, warm weather. I love not having to wear a jacket!

I'm getting ready for my next arts and craft show which is the day before Mother's day. My fingers are crossed for a good one. I am making lots of new stuff and I have lots of new beads to play with.

Check out my etsy shop for some of my new pressed flower soldered glass pendants.

I will post some pictures here as soon as I can. I've just been running really behind lately :(

Maybe I have spring fever. LOL

Getting ready for Plantation Pines Christmas Tree Farm!

I am getting some of my jewelry pieces ready to take to the AWESOME gift shop out at Plantation Pines Christmas Tree Farm. They will be opening their doors next weekend for all the Christmas tree shoppers coming to chop down a tree. It is located between Tyler and Lindale off of Hwy 69 North and is definitely worth the drive. Their trees are beautiful and their gift shop has soooo many cute things (including mine, of course). If your in the area, stop by and see.

But never fear, my etsy shop will remain open for all of your holiday needs! My earrings make great stocking stuffers and I have cell phone charms that are too cute!

As an added feature, you can get your purchase gift wrapped for only $1.00 and I will mail it out to the gift recipient if you so choose.

Happy shopping!

Can you believe it's almost Thanksgiving?

And soon the Christmas season will be in full swing! We have some neighbors up the street from our house who seem to compete with each other every year with yard decorations. They live across the street from each other and every year their yards get brighter and brighter. I bet their electric bills are gianormous! We are just waiting for the first decoration to go up and we think it will be this coming weekend. The great thing about it though, is that no one else needs to turn on their regular outside lights because those 2 houses light up our whole neighborhood.

It does look pretty though!

It's Officially 1st Monday!
