Back to School shopping...part 2

Hideeho Neighbors and Neighborettes (hopefully that greeting won’t get me in trouble from the Home Improvement lovers...I dug that show, too!)

I’m still chugging along for back to school shopping. I’m about burned out as they have tons and tons of things and doohickeys and trinkets...my head just swims. August 31st cannot get here fast enough. Now for those of you who think I just want to ship my babies off to school...let me qualify my eagerness to be alone.

I’ve not made anything in weeks other than gifts for birthday parties and such. My blogs, shops and such have (willingly) suffered so my kids could go hither and yon. The lake used to hold a kind of quiet beauty and now it almost makes me feel guilty being there cuz I ain’t workin’! Now that a chill will soon be in the air (my fav time of the year) and my shop won’t have the word SWEAT painted in said body fluids (eww...mental picture- so not pleasant), I want to get back into the swing of things and create again.

I love to shop; I also LOVE to surf the net. I am addicted and I have no problem admitting it. (My answer to being an addict is Yea, so?) While I was finishing my rounds for clothes and goodities and nicities for my kids, my mind and keys started drifting to other stuff...like for me...lol! I wound up tooling around ArtFire and feasting my eyes on two really cool items.

Now this girl can dream and whilst perusing this site...I was taken aback and discovered these two treasures I would wear in heartbeat- even though normally I wouldn’t go for either of these stones. Check out this beautiful pair of mouth watering Peridot Earrings by Gonet...


and this funky eye popping pair of Carnelian Earrings from mocahete

Ho mama! Ya gotta love ArtFire. They have SO many artisans who give so much of themselves when they create their unique gifts. ArtFire is getting to be more and more interesting to poke around...I’d lose my shirt if I bought everything I liked...but it would be SO worth it.

Happy shopping!
