I've got the Cutest Frogettes for Your Enjoyment on Etsy

Hello readers! I know I wouldn't be long before I would have a new creation made and posted on Etsy and I am here to share with you what these new creations are. Are you a lover of our swamp friends....frogs, toads, turtles, snakes or slugs? All of them...fan are not...our wildlife depends on their services to keep nature in check. I personally have a love for peeper frogs for their smallness and toads for the sounds they make when extending their bellies and how they can skillfully eat a fly! Not that my newest treat are flies! I have made a very fancy selection of what I'm calling....the Frogette Sisters and are very talented singers during the day... that will perform at any "hoppin' pad" and keep watch over the swamps at night so things stay calm and quiet! There is Alice, the redhead, Bonnie, the brunette, and Chrintina the sandy blonde. Now I'll have you meet them.....


Here they are together:





Meet Alice:



Meet Bonnie:




Meet Christina:



If you never thought you'd like a reptile....maybe you want to rethink that because you have to admit these are not the typical reptilian type...they are special and they are waiting for you in my Etsy shop! Go take a look and see if frogs can be something that you would add to your home! Enjoy and look to the left to get the link you will need to view them in Etsy. Enjoy!

A Special thank you goes to The Feather Factory!

Hello readers! I hope all of your are doing fine and enjoying my newest creations for Spring! I have a very special thank you that I would love to send to the owner of the shop "The Feather Factory!" I am soo late and apologize fully for having to wait so long for sending this thank you for a fantastic item that I won in a give a way on her blog!

The Feather factory is a wonderful shop that is located on FuzzB. For the nature lover she has anything you may want for your home decorating that has to do with wild life and nature, mainly our bird friends, that have many uses such as squirrel feeders, rooster wall hangers, a humming bird clock and rooster canisters. All of her items are very affordable and would be great additions to any home! The neatest items are all the many types of bird feathers she sells. They are from all types of birds with the most beautiful feathers and can be used in crafting and are made with many types of feathers called feather pads. Feather pads made with marabou, guinea, peacock, reeve and many other exotic bird feathers can be found. What her FuzzB shop is truly full of is bird houses. Not just any type of birdhouses ....but birdhouses that are so beautiful and detailed that they are made to find a great place to display them in a favorite nook, or cranny of your home! Actually, that is where I diplayed my winnings was on another winning that I won from The Firecrackerkid from Etsy's winnings of a primitive candle holder that is hanging in my kitchen right above my kitchen table! It puts it high enough that my cats can't touch it...yet is in sight well enough, upon entering into my house that you can see it right away!

Take a look at this beauty!













This is the cutest,decorative, birdhouse I have ever seen! If you think this one is cute go into her FuzzB shop and take a look at all of her other birdhouses. They are every size, color and style imaginable! If you LOVE anything having to do with our feathered friends checkout her shop. You won't be sorry!

New Easter Items just added to Etsy!

Good morning all! I have been working hard on adding a few new items to my Etsy shop that will help celebrate the Easter holiday and wanted to share with you these new items.I have just added three new bunnys that are hanging onto a heart ornies. Three different fabrics have been used for the hearts so each one is different. I have also added a set of three chocolate heart ornies.....one milk chocolate, one dark chocolate, and one white chocolate and would be a great gift for all the chocoholics out there. The following are pictures of each of these additions:













I hope you enjoy my new addtions and will be back with more new items soon! Look to your left for my link to send you into my Etsy shop and enjoy!

Three Bunnies Hopping Down the Bunny Trail!

Good morning readers! How are all of you since my giveaway? I am hoping that all is going fine with all of you! I just wanted to take some time and show you a few of my new additions to my Etsy shop. I have just got down with three more bunnies for the Easter time rush. Here are two of my newest bunnies and the third will be posted soon! Where is the third bunny? Well the third bunny is lacking a bow to put around his neck and will put that on him sometime today and get him posted with the rest. So be watching for the third bunny. All will be posted in my Etsy shop and welcome you to go and read about these new additions to my shop. I hope you enjoy them and there will be even more bunnies, and Easter/Spring items as time progresses! ENJOY! (Sorry for showing their behinds. I just thought the tails turned out soo cute I couldn't help but share a picture.)Here is the third bunny so now they are all together and fully decorated!





















Look to your left and you will find the links to where my items can be found.

The Winner of my Annie and Andy Lamp Is.......

Good morning all! How are you all this morning? Finally the day is here to pick the winner of my Annie and Andy lamp giveaway and I wanted to explain my system to you so that anyone that would like to use this system can do so since it can be used over and over and may be need to be modified due to the change of number of participants.

Ok...this is very simple and doesn't take a mad scientist to put together. The supplies needed include a fine tip pen from a pen that will not smudge, a number of earplugs that will represent each person that has signed up for the giveaway, a bowl with a lid, a piece of paper and writing utensil.

1)What you do is make a copy of the list of participants for your giveaway and replace each name with a number in sequence. 1...2....3....and so on.






2)Next you take each earplug and write these numbers on the plug.(I wrote the numbers on both ends.)Each plug will represent that corresponding number/person on your list





3)Once finished place all plugs in a bowl with a lid and have them lay flat inside the bowl.



4) Give a great shake and reach in with a blindfold on ...or with closed eyes and pull out one plug and this is your winner!




This great thing about this method is because the earplugs can be used over and over and just the list will need to be replaced and renumbered for your new giveaways!

All the plugs are the same size and have the same texture so there is NO WAY you can tell who's number goes to what plug until it is checked! I'm sure many of you have thought of this method already ....or may have been doing simular for the giveaways you have already have been having. If you have been doing the name in the hat...well is her another option you may want to consider for a future giveaway!


Now onto the naming of the winner.....I bounced the plugs in there pretty darn good and reached in to find the winning number. When I pulled out the winning plug and read the number I thought I'd get a picture of the winning number and put that with that number/person on my signup list to get a picture....so here it is.....the winning number is 9 and Yorkie''s Primitive is the winner of my Andy and Annie Doll Lamp giveaway! Many congatulations to you and I will send you a private message of congrats and to get your information of where to send your prize!



A HUGE thank you goes to all that signed up for this giveaway. I wish I had something for all of you! Don't worry I will have more giveaways as time allows and so keep posted and I hope you all have a fantastic day!

What another obsession?!

Good morning readers! I have been up early and watching the videos of my newest obsession...Adam Lambert! How did I manage to let this young hunk pass my notice up until now. I have seen him on tv and never really knew where he came from. I never truly noticed him until he did an recent interview, and performance, on Oprah. and was immediately taken with this cutting edge performance! When thinking back I remember thinking now there is a odd fellow. ....a true rock and roller for sure! Maybe into heavy metal as far as I knew. His dark hair, makeup , over the top hair style, out of the norm clothing...yet eyes that can't be missed he certainly wasn't something I could get into...or even like. That just goes to say how people, in general, judge others because of their appearance and won't wait around to see what is behind the veil that hides the soul, mind and God's gifts that aren't readily seen.

I watched the Oprah show and was so impressed with this young mans abilities, was intrigued by his look and loved the wisdom Adam had to show about what has happened to him on American Idol and his developing stardom! I certainly missed a good season when he was competing...and sorry to say he came in second once the season came to a close. The hook was his performance of "What do you want from me" from his newest album. His commanded the stage and had a stage presence that was overwhelming! I've been searching for more videos on line and seeing that this, rising star, is someone that has become my newest obsession.I love to listen to his music ...but the magic of Adam is truly in his performance ablilities. Having done a number of onstage musicals Adam is more than just music. Part of expereiencing Adam is to see him in video. His talent goes far beyond a wonderful voice, a totally unique style and his command of the stage he possess! I'm sure as he gets further in his career he will go far and will continue to follow his upcoming albums...and possibly movies. Here is one of his latest songs that is on the new movie 2012...."Time for Miracles."

JUST A REMINDER:
(Please be aware that my giveaway, the Andy and Annie Valentine's Lamp" is now on the second page. Just hit older posts and it should be right to at the top of lists of posts. It will be over on Jan. 28th so if you want to still signup for a possibility to win this great prize just go to older posts at the bottom of this page!)

A give a way has arrived and just in time for Valentine's Day!

>



Hello everyone! How are all my readers doing since my last post a few hours ago? LOL Didn't give you much time to relax, get something to eat, do something that you've wanted to get done today or even talk on the phone for too long! I'm sorry about that! I promise I will only take a short moment of your time. I am here again...but this time I am posting about a give a way that I am having as of today! My give a way involves a Valentine's Annie and Andy lamp that is so lovely and romantic to add to any small area in your home that needs a little light...or just needs a point of interest. The specifics of the lamp is as follows:

The bucket measures approximately 7 inches in diameter and its overall height measures about 13 inches . It contains a silicone 2 watt light bulb. The lamp has a cord that measures 5 1/2 feet long with an off and on switch. This lamp includes a lightly grunged/ handmade raggedy Annie and Andy, a multi-colored heart that Anne is holding and two grunged larger red/white hearts in the back. Both Raggedy
Annie and Andy are made of muslin, have embroidered noses of red and mouths, eyebrows and eyelashes of black and black button eyes. They share the typical red hair, that these two adorable characters share and is made of red yarn. Anne has a red/ lighter read dress with on with a bow that matches the shirt that Andy has on in her hair...while Andy has a matching red/ white checkered shirt on. They are surrounded by various greenery that would be just beautiful on a hutch or on a table. The bucket was heavily rusted but has a white bow adorning its middle that gives it a primitive or vintage feel! The theme of this lamp would be a wonderful addition to any collector of Raggedy Annie and Andy or love Americana items... or are simply into dolls and their influence.







(retail value: $24.99)
