Hello dear friends. It is beginning to look a lot like Easter around my house. I'm slowly pulling out the decorations and plan to finish it up this weekend. It's right around the corner! I definitely prefer an April Easter as the weather is usually warmer and it just feels more spring like but hey - I guess that is just something I can't control right? This sweetie above is by the very talented Lori and looks just perfect in my kitchen window. Lori is a fellow member of the Etsy Cottage Style Street Team that Sadie Lou has so lovingly put together.
A frilly and fun initial badge and ledger paper tags also from Lori.
This is a necklace I made for a friend. The butterfly was originally an earring and had sentimental value to my friend. I wanted to incorporate it into a new piece for her but it didn't have a ready made area for me to easily string it onto wire and my soldering skills are not that fabulous figuring I haven't soldered since middle school! I decided to try making a pendant and then using epoxy to affix the butterfly. It seems to have worked well for my first try. Now I just need to keep my fingers crossed that it stays put.
Have a wonderful weekend!

Great necklace..!
That bunny box is ADORABLE Karla!! and the butterfly on that is perfect! I LOVE butterflies!
Gorgeous necklace you made for your friend Karla!!! I love the prettiness and how delicate it looks!
The bunny box is of course adorable!
That is the most adorable bunny I have ever seen!! I love it and the butterfly necklace is gorgeous. I love everything about it.
Yummy little treat!!! (and calorie free) I think your necklace is beautiful!!! You did a fantastic job on it!
i agree, the bunny box is cute! something about the glitter. you could always trying winding some wire around the butterfly and maybe attach at the top somewhere for extra security? just a thought. anyway, it's cool and love how you use something of sentimental value. gives it more meaning.

Beautiful necklace! I know what you mean about soldering- more than half the time I just end up with a mess- but I'm always a little nervous about "will the glue hold".
What a darling bunny box! And such a beautiful job you did on the necklace with the butterfly!
I've given you and award (or 2 or 3) on my blog today. Enjoy! =)
hey karla, me again! i just wanted to say thank you for going over to my mom's blog and saying something to her about her beloved, muppie. that was so nice of you and means so much to me.
