HELLO FRIDAY!

First day off this week:)

Here's is what I have accomplished so far:

I packed up and mailed two orders from Jamisson!

People like my needle books:)

I am so happy, and working to make and post more in the shop.

I also made a stop at Goodwill and found some more items to use in merchandising Perlina. 

and. . .

 I finally was inspired to use these awesome skull beads that my mother in law, Karen, gave to me last Christmas. 


I wanted to use them in the most perfect way and it came to me today!

 They have that celebratory, Day of the Dead, look that I just love and I have had these beads all along. I just never thought of putting them all together in this way until now.

What I also love is that I already had a necklace that I had purchased in Philadelphia at the Mutter Museum gift shop that has the same skulls on it. 

When I opened

 the gift I figured that Karen gets me pretty well to pick something out for me like this and know that I will LOVE them:)
