Sorry I am late Kathy but here's wishing you a Belated Happy Birthday, at least it still is your birthday week. Since Monday I have been laid low with a head cold that made me feel as if I had cotton wool instead of brains. So I am not on the ball with dates and things. Love Shirley -- Shirley...

I have got to say, you guys sure have made me feel welcome! I had a bad case of the first-post shyness- but it seems to have left me. Wheeela! Encouraged by requests to see pictures of what I do, I pulled out the digital camera today and took a few pictures. I'm still learning how to operate my...

I have taken up making jewellery recently and this is only my second piece, but I am very proud of. It took about 5 hours, mainly because I was doing some joins I hadn't done before and it took me a while to get the hang of it. I would appreciate it if anybody would give me an opinion on what they...

I'm still trying to wrap my head around exactly what lampwork is :-/ I was thinking of putting a few glass blown beads I bought years ago in Vermont. They were made by a glassblower Lucy Bergamini. I never got around to using them (although the earrings I've purchased from her have gotten tons of...

Today is my mother's funeral. Perhaps as far back as ten years ago I noticed a new mole on her leg. Being aware of what melanoma's "signs" are I knew immediately what it was. At the time I first noticed it, it was perhaps as big as a typed letter "o", maybe even smaller. We'll never know...

Hello everyone: I am interested in looking for an image host. Any recommendations? I tried to look at Photobucket but there was a server problem, and they were down. Has anyone used this one? Any feedback you may provide is very welcome!! I am not limited to free ones, just doing general...
