What in the He## happened to March!!


Someone please tell me what happened to the month of March! I can't believe it's gone. Well, I can sort of.... It's been so crazy...first with a week trip to visit another BFF Ella while her hubby is in Iraq :(......then, staying with my sister after a scheduled surgery, then, being at the hospital for the last week with my Mom after a fall and breaking of her hip while in Mexico! She had to medivac'd out and emergency surgery on Sunday morning! Also, my two teens have been on spring break for the past two weeks. The month of March has been soooo crazy! All in all, my Mom and sis are both doing well. The teens are eating me out of house and home. And, I am ready for the month of April!


I wanted to include some of my latest shop pics! I love Spring!








I wanted to introduce you to LuLu! She got her name from my BFF Meg's 7 year-old Kate! Meg gave her to me, and as I was leaving Kansas last time, Kate said, "you know Miss Beth, her name is LuLu!" So it is! Everyone at the Barn, and customers have grown accustomed to her! She is adorned with vintage pins! I went crazy painting her base and adorning her with old pearls, beads and ribbon! She is pretty fancy!! .....just the way we like it: Go Big or Stay Home!





I am going to do my next post on the latest bracelets I made recently. There were some blog viewers who contacted me wanting a vintage bracelet, and I told them I would include a post once I got the latest batch done. Well, they are almost done, and I will do my best to do a post within the next week, with the bracelets that are available. Thanks to everyone who was interested. I truly appreciate your support!

YOur poor mom! It must be scary to get hurt so far from home.

Almost as scary as trying to keep teens fed...

Beth
I left you a note awhile back but it looks like life has been nutty. Come by my new blog. I am NEW to this but starting up an Etsy account and Gail just sold a bunch of my art at her Barn Show. I have posted some pics of my stuff. Come on by... Hope life is great.
