Awards to the following........(so far)


I Love to look award! Please pass it on to your favorite bloggers!

My "Award" to blogs I enjoy seeing!!!

I have created this award for the creators of blogs I love to visit!!! I have always been a google-eyed nut and I felt that this image expressed my love of seeing the wonderful art creations and other news posted on various blogs. Of course there are hundreds of places left to visit, but I thought I would start with the blogs I read often. This award is from my heart because the artists post not only art, but news of family, friends, and their wonderful look on life!!!!

So, I am calling this the "I love to look" award! I hope you accept as intended, a genuine compliment!!!!!!

Little glass house class with Sally Jean!

My ephemera!2 sides, 1 end
Roof tops and other end!
When assembled you add a small battery light under the house and it glows!!!!!
If you ever get an opprotunity to take ANY class from Sally Jean, do not hesitate and do not walk....run to get in!!! I have tried for 4 years to get a class with her and I was always too late. They fill up FAST! I know why!!!! Most supplies are included except for papers and ephemera you wish to bring.! Clear instructions, she shows you each step, walks around class to help.....very fun personality and approachable!!!!

So, I didn't get my house put together, but I posted the elements I completed. I have 3 more sides to solder and then put house together. Most of the students finished their house in class, but I was close behind until I had to leave at 6:15 pm!

I'll tell you the story behind the my house when I post the completed photo!!!!

PS-THANKS SALLY JEAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
