Figuring out this Blog Thing

I'm trying to figure out how to make my blog look brighter and prettier and add links and pictures and music. I brightened up the font colors and made the fonts bigger. I also added a link to my etsy store and to some blogs and websites that I like to visit. It may take me awhile and maybe some help from the teens around this house, but I'll get my blog looking like I want it to look.

Have a happy day ~* Lora

I love flowers, hearts, peace signs and colorful seed beads!

This is my new memory wire seed bead bracelet. I just love it! It makes me happy. I've finally started making my Spring-y, colorful jewelry. I'm done with the dark colors of Winter for now!
In a few weeks I'm planning on having my Spring Jewelry Sale/Open House. I had one in November and it was very successful, but mostly it was just fun because I got to hang out with other woman and gab, eat and talk about my jewelry. Fun!

Please leave a comment to say hi~

Tootsies and Flowers (weeds)

I took this picture a couple of weeks ago. I liked it so much I made it my new icon on flickr. Hope everyone is taking their shoes off and letting their toes enjoy the springtime!

Spring!



I worked in the yard today. There was plenty of weeds to be pulled. My flower beds were overflowing with grass and clover weeds... not a pretty sight. I still have much work to do and I'm hoping I can do some more on Saturday. I have perwinkles, impatiens, ivy, roses and a few other things to plant. I just love Spring!! I spent my birthday money on flowers. I finally bought a rose bush. I've been wanting to do that for a long time now. I hope it grows and fills up the fence with beautiful, fragrant, pink roses! I also want to plant some honeysuckle. I remember having honeysuckle on the fences as a kid. I loved to pull the blooms off and pull the stem out for that little drop of nectar... yum! Happy Spring~

Hippie Cowgirl Bracelet


Here's my Hippie Cowgirl Bracelet that I just made. I just love it!! I haven't had a whole lot of time to be creative lately. Between kids and substitute teaching it's been a little bit hectic. I get a little grouchy when I don't take time to make jewelry. I've been trying to figure out what pieces to order to make some spring jewelry. A lot of my pieces are kind of fallish colors. I'm ready for some sparkly pinks and some beachy blues and greens! This piece isn't exactly the spring look I was going for, but this would be perfect for the beach or a summer BBQ! We love our BBQ in Texas! I will be adding this to my etsy store this evening or tomorrow.
